The routes are a response to the Share an Idea conversations about having more travel choice and safe options for cycling. Cycles routes are also a proven way to improve the health of the city, reduce congestion, build stronger local economies and reduce the cost of infrastructure. Bike-friendly cities consistently rank highly in quality of life surveys – cities where it’s easy to get around by bike are great places to live.
