Great to see KCAT’s work (Quiet Streets and School Streets) recognized and highlighted!The City of Kingston advanced from a Bronze to Silver BFC status, with innovations across the four “Es”: Engineering, Education, Encouragement, and Evaluation & Planning. Since their previous application in 2016, Kingston has developed a robust policy framework for safe cycling and cycle projects that cater to a range of age-groups and abilities. Key examples include traffic-calmed or car-free neighbourhoods and school zones (i.e., Quiet Streets and School Streets), as well as the installation of bollards on buffered bike lanes.“Through policy, design, staffing, and programming, Kingston is showing its commitment to building a community for active transportation, where the road is shared between cyclists and drivers,” said Dr. Subha Ramanathan, Manager of Partnerships & Programs at STR. “It is also wonderful to see partnerships and collaboration at the heart of Kingston, with a range of community partners providing ongoing opportunities for recreational and competitive cycling.”About the Share the Road Cycling CoalitionShare the Road is an Ontario-based not-for-profit organization working to make communities across Canada more bicycle friendly for people of all ages and abilities. We work in partnership with municipal, provincial, and federal governments; the business community; road safety organizations; and other not-for- profits to enhance access for bicyclists on roads and trails; improve safety for all bicyclists; and provide education about the value and importance of safe cycling for healthy lifestyles and healthy communities.www.sharetheroad.ca/files/STR_BFC_News_Release_Fall_2021.pdf ...
