Plan Updates

The BNP Policy Actions and Constraints Report serves as a general guideline for all levels of government, informing the development of policies that align with the BNP, as well as the City’s Vision Zero Action Plan and Complete Streets Policy. This document reviews current bike and pedestrian policies, identifies gaps, and develops recommendations for policy changes based on relevant existing case studies and peer city experiences. A total of 17 policy recommendations are presented in this document, focusing on roadway safety regulations for cyclists and pedestrians, roadway reallocation, and the deployment of infrastructure.

Rather than a “one-size-fits-all” approach, the Bike Facilities Guidelines for Future Amendments serves as a tool to determine the appropriate bicycle facility based on the broader street context, vehicle volumes and speeds, and the modal needs of a street.
