Write to us and let us know that you’re interested in a particular street! We are looking for people that want to prioritize cycling, walkability and public transit in their neighbourhood. We’ll make sure that one of our volunteer leaders gets back to you with ideas about how you can help shape the streets in your community. Please e-mail completestreets@ecologyottawa.ca for more information.
The priority for our family is st Patrick. We live
In Lindenlea.
As a family we like to bicycle to the market. However
currently our 9 year old daughter is not able to
bicycle along St Patrick because the existing bike
lane ends and lands one in the middle of heavy
traffic. Our priority is that st Patrick be completely
cycle friendly. Only 1 meter would be sufficient
to give bikes a separate spot to cycle.
Currently the bikes lanes in either side of st
Patrick have to be extended to make them usable
for the average person. The argument that 1 meter
is not viable since 1 meter would be a great
improvement compared to 0 meters.
If we are serious about wanting a healthy
population, we must provide spaces for this sort
of physical activity to be built into our everyday
lives.
I agree 100% with Jeff. St. Patrick is a direct route (only route) for anyone cycling from Lindenlea, New Edinburgh, North Vanier and Rockcliffe etc. Currently, it is absolutely ridiculous how fast traffic travels here and how unsafe it is for cyclists not to have some kind of bike lane. There is more then enough space for a 1 meter bike lane if some of the middle median is reduced, Also, would seem very easy to construct an elavated bike lane (above the curb) that is separate from the road on both sides, between the road and trees that are currently there. Some form of complete street designs has to be made mandatory on all redesigns and modifications on major streets going forward. No more fighting one street, community association, neighbouhood etc. at a time! The City needs to get creative and stop making excuses as to reasons why it is not possible, it is always possible!
