• • Improved monitoring; and
• • Continued collaboration with stakeholders.

The above principles will provide guidance in implementing an Active Transportation strategy that:

• 1. Works toward developing a complete active transportation network that connects all neighbourhoods
• 2. Improves the safety and accessibility of vulnerable road users
• 3. Supports effective land use planning to build an environment that makes walking, cycling, and transit convenient and enjoyable.
• 4. Ensures that the active transportation network is equitable and accessible for all residents
• 5. Fosters a culture for active transportation

Approach to Active Transportation Infrastructure:

In fully understanding the dynamics of implementing a robust active transportation network in the most efficient and effective manner the program will to need consider two implementation plans. The first plan will identify projects which can proceed with little to no dependency and/or impact to other assets. The second is to ensure synergies to build the network in concert with road and/or sewer and/or park rehabilitation and/or other reconstruction projects which are leveraged. Both implementation plans are expected to follow the core principles the ATMP has defined and are listed above. The following will ensure proper implementation and ongoing operation and maintenance of the active transportation facilities:

•  That Bikeways Development continues to be funded to allow for the design and implementation of smaller cycling facility projects as they are recommended in the Active Transportation Master Plan.
•  That cycling and sidewalk infrastructure projects continue to be implemented in concert with road rehabilitations and reconstructions.
•  That capital projects which include elements of Active Transportation reflect the costs of those facilities in the capital cost.
•  That grant funding continue to be pursued to assist with financing of these projects.
•  That Administration report annually on the progress made on these projects as well as information on utilization.

Administration has provided Urban Systems, the consultants for the ATMP, with the City of Windsor's recommended 2020 8-year capital budget, especially as it relates to road reconstruction, mill and pave, and other major road projects. Urban Systems compared this data with the bicycle network recommendations from the ATMP. This resulted in a list of projects which align with cycling facility recommendations in the ATMP. (Painted Bicycle Lanes, Buffered Bicycle Lanes, Protected Bicycle Lanes and Multi-Use Pathways). It is important to note that these categories of cycling facilities are at a highlevel. More specific types such as cycling tracks and bicycle boulevards, are not uniquely commented on in this report but are part of the ATMP.
