Please do not forget that rural areas need safe active transportation as well.
Here in rural Gravenhurst we see many sports and recreational cyclists on our roads, which are scenic, but unsafe for cyclists. Pedestrians and motorized scooters also need safe paved shoulders to encourage independence and healthy exercise.
Here in Ryde we have a beautiful tourist attraction, the Ryde Barn Quilt Trail, which attracts visitors from all over. There is a parallel geocaching trail, which also attracts hobbyists.
Having safer options for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians provided economic benefits on top of the safety and environmental concerns.
Please help us obtain active transportation routes in rural communities.
