City guidelines will be updated early next year to consider how best to address active transportation routes, when construction projects interrupt their use.

Coun. Matt Allard (St. Boniface), who chairs council’s public works committee, moved a successful motion Tuesday that calls to update a civic construction manual with considerations around the interruption of AT routes.

“The issue of AT is, if you do close a street, you are closing a much bigger section of the network than you would be in the case of vehicle traffic where you can just go to the next street, in some cases you might have to take a significant (AT) detour if you’re staying on the network,” said Allard.

The updates are expected to return to council’s public works committee in February 2020.
