Better snow clearing for cyclists is on the way, but there are still a few kinks
to work out before a winter cycling network is established. A proposal to clear
another 20 kilometres of bike lanes downtown in addition to the current 20 km
will be part of the 2015 city budget process. The idea was just floated when it
was included in the updated Transportation Master Plan in 2013, but city council
will still need to allocate the money – an estimated $250,000 – to make it
happen, which means the clearer routes won’t become a reality until next winter.
