Airport Parkway MUP: One step forward, two steps back

Posted on 2025-04-032025-05-06 by Bike Ottawa in Advocacy, Infrastructure

On March 27, Bike Ottawa board member Florence Lehmann presented a delegation to the Public Works and Infrastructure Committee to oppose recoupling the Airport Parkway west side MUP to the proposed road widening.

The beginning of a cycle track at an intersection. The track runs over a shaved concrete curb with embedded tactile plates and then continues as an asphalt path next to the sidewalk. There is a utility pole on the left side within the width of the track, and painted markings indicate cyclists turning left should wait obstructing the track.
