"Encouraging greater participation in active transportation can improve the physical and mental
health of users, reduce carbon footprints, attract visitors, and boost local businesses through increased
traffic. Building active transportation infrastructure may also improve the equity of travel
options, contribute to a more accessible public realm and create safer, more liveable communities
for everyone."
-Warden, Greg Wier
