Vancouver Cycling Route Planner
As best I can tell, Vancouver seems to be the Portland of Canada — fairly progressive biking policies, relatively speaking. Maybe that’s why Vancouver was just ranked 4th best city in the world for livability.
Enter the building’s north side on Lexington St. Bike Parking will be available here.
Please pass along this information to others attending.
The Baltimore Bike Summit is this Friday, May 1st
Please RSVP ( Nate.Evans@baltimorecity.gov ) if you have not done so already. We are providing lunch and need to plan accordingly.
A mid-day bike ride is part of the agenda. If you would like to participate but need a bike, please let me know by Thursday and we will provide one for you.
If you have any questions, please let Nate know.
Sincerely,
Nate Evans

Information bulletins have been developed for professionals and community members who want to build a case for active transportation in their community. Academic, government and non-government sources are used to build a strong case for implementing active transportation opportunities at the local level. Canadian sources are used whenever available. All bulletins are available in English and French.
Each bulletin includes evidence that supports the investment of time and resources for active transportation opportunities at the local level. They focus on designing communities for moving people and not cars. Recommended actions to increase and strengthen collaborative partnerships for active transportation are also included.
