Seeing how incredible the transformation of Montreal has been for cyclists and pedestrians, I applaud Quebec City for expanding their active transportation system with this announcement, too!
Marchand says this project is not “a war on cars” but he does not have information about how existing roadways or lanes will be affected by the cycling network.
Well, data from every major city that has implemented a robust cycling network tends to show that traffic congestion will be reduced, people will be healthier, local businesses will benefit, and safety all around will improve.
Bravo, Quebec City!
I would love to see something like this get implemented here in Memphis but I could only dream. Memphis, even with its liberal reputation, is truck country. Add in the fact that Fedex and Autozone are headquartered here and Ford is building an EV factory right next door. I guess I’m going to brush up on my high school French and move to Quebec.
