I commute to and from work, as well run errands and visit friends and family using my bicycle as my main mode of transportation. I am a registered nurse at TGH and riding my bike is an essential part of maintaining my physical and emotional wellness. Many people in this city have found riding their bikes as the healthier transit option, and having bicycle infrastructure is a crucial part to that being true. The construction and maintenance of safe, multiuse infrastructure encourages more people to cycle which builds a healthier and happier society, and reduces the number of cars on the road. The promotion of alternative modes of transportation is the one sure way of reducing cars, creating safer streets for all users, including pedestrians, and improving air quality for all.
