The city is calling on the public to weigh in on three pedestrian and cycling projects.

The city is hosting community consultations on three separate planned projects and looking for public input. The projects will target pedestrian and cycling improvements in downtown, West Alexander, and northwest Winnipeg.

“These projects will make it safer, easier and more enjoyable for Winnipeggers to walk or ride a bike,” Scott Suderman, the city’s transportation facilities planning engineer, said in a statement. “They will improve transportation options for citizens of all ages and abilities, while ongoing public consultation will ensure the input of local stakeholders will be taken into account in the design of each project.”

The projects are part of the pedestrian and cycling action plan that city council approved in May.

The downtown project is a bike lane system that aims to connect The Forks to the Exchange District; in West Alexander, a pedestrian and cycling corridor would connect McPhillips Street to Sherbrook Street; and the third project would take an existing hydro corridor and create a pathway in the northwest region of the city.
