HUB Cycling's Tri-Cities Local Committee is encouraging all active transportation users and vulnerable road users to feed into this plan and have their say. 

Our Local Committee members have some suggested comments on questions that relate directly to people on bikes and other vulnerable road users:

 

Question 4: Share any additional comments on the approach to identify practical, cost-effective, and implementable improvements:

HUB Tri-Cities Comments: "Preferred mode of transportation” cannot be properly evaluated. Biking and walking are often not preferred modes as they cannot be performed safely. This leads to the over-representation of vehicles as being the preferred mode.

 

Question 7: How well does the MTP achieve this objective? (In reference to Multi-Use Paths)

HUB Tri-Cities Comments: Not very well

 

Question 8: Share any additional comments on proposed cycling/rolling improvements.

HUB Tri-Cities Comments: Multi-use paths do not accommodate all travel modes. Conflicts can and will occur with different users, specifically cyclists and pedestrians, and will worsen given the adoption of e-bikes and e-scooters.
