Giving Tuesday is about donating to things that matter, after the spending sprees of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Safer cycling in Winnipeg matters a lot. - The City has underspent its 2015 pedestrian/cycling implementation plan by more than $60 million.
- Now, the City is developing a Transportation Master Plan to guide road infrastructure investments to 2050.
- Winnipeg must achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050
- Emissions from transportation account for over half of Winnipeg’s GHG emissions
- To meet its climate targets, Winnipeg must change course NOW to make travel by bicycle a safe, convenient and enjoyable choice.
Bike Winnipeg will use resources from this campaign to collaborate with CAA on a city-wide survey on climate and transportation, place strategic advertising, and other projects to inform City leaders on the benefits of redirecting resources to encourage travel by bicycle. |
