New cycling facilities Bike corrals A continuing pilot project, bike corrals are in place on Bronte Road near Marine Drive and on Kerr Street near Herald Avenue throughout the summer and into the fall. The corrals accommodate 10 to 12 bikes in about the same amount of space as a parked car.

Secure bicycle parking at the downtown parking garage There are fifteen secure bike parking spots at the 300 Church Street parking garage, monitored by security cameras and in sight of the parking attendant 24 hours a day. The area includes a multi-tool repair and tune-up station with standard screwdrivers, wrenches, a built-in pump with pressure gauge, and more. This program is supported by the Metrolinx Bikelinx program. Bike to bus along Third Line You can now bike to any of the twelve bus stops along Third Line from Abbeywood Drive/Kings College Drive to Pine Glen Road, lock your bike at one of the newly installed bike racks and board Oakville Transit to complete your trip. This new program is supported by the Public Transit and Infrastructure Fund. Crosstown Trail A four-metre wide asphalt multi-use trail has been added at the Crosstown Trail from Neyagawa Boulevard to east of Trafalgar Road. The paved trail is designed to be safe and balanced for all users; provides rest areas; and connects with community centres, public transit, parks, schools, and other key destinations. The area also has a bike repair station at the Sixth Line intersection. This project was made possible with support through the Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program/Avec l’appui du Programme d’infrastructure communautaire de Canada 150.
