The Municipality of Bluewater is undertaking an Active Transportation Master Plan (ATMP). Active transportation uses non-motorized forms of travel to get from one destination to another. It includes walking, cycling, running, skateboarding, rollerblading, among other “human-powered” means of travel.
The Master Plan will guide how the municipality plans, constructs and maintains active transportation facilities, including sidewalks, trails, cycling routes and other supportive features. Specifically, the ATMP will identify:
Which existing active transportation facilities need to be maintained or improved,
What new active transportation facilities are needed,
Which key destinations should be connected by active transportation,
How active transportation facilities (i.e., bike lanes, separated trails, etc.) should be designed,
How all ages and abilities can be accommodated,
How projects should be prioritized, and
How much funding is required.
Community engagement is a critical component of the ATMP process and through a variety of engagement platforms, we want to hear from everyone! This inclusive approach to consultation will ensure diverse perspectives and enable meaningful collaboration throughout the planning process.
