Williamsville Bikeways
Consultation has concluded, the engagement report is available online.
Williamsville is a historic, growing and active neighbourhood that is located between downtown and central Kingston. A key part of what contributes to its character is the high use of active modes of transportation, such as walking or biking. Recently we carried out some public engagement on a transportation study in Williamsville. During that engagement, we heard that community members wanted to see infrastructure built to support cycling along commonly used routes in the neighbourhood. One of the big themes brought forward were concerns about barriers cycling those routes.
In order to support the growth of bikeway transportation networks in Williamsville we need to hear from the community about what routes are vital and why. This information will be used to develop recommended concepts. Those concepts could then be used in the future as Williamsville grows and develops.
A public open house took place on Oct. 26 from 6 - 8 p.m. The informational materials from that event can be viewed online. A survey was conducted during the Oct. 26 in-person open house, for those who were unable to attend but wanted to leave feedback an online version was accessible until Nov. 17
