Join us for our sixth annual Winter Bike Parade! This event brings together Ottawa cyclists who don’t let winter get in the way of their transportation, and gives an opportunity to highlight the best of winter cycling infrastructure in Ottawa… as well as some areas where improvements are needed.
Last week, Mayor Jim Watson addressed a letter to Ontario’s Minister of Education, MPP Mitzie Hunter, requesting provincial support to improve education for safe cycling.
Today, December 14, the City of Ottawa’s budget for 2017 was discussed and passed at council (24-0). City budgets may not get most people excited, but this one is special. What makes it unique is that the city has received money from the federal public transit infrastructure fund (PTIF).
Winter is approaching, but many of those who bike in Ottawa won’t be put off by the snow: in recent years we’ve seen an expanding network of winter-maintained cycling routes in our city and growing popularity of riding bikes straight through the winter.
