Council: Proposed separated bike lanes in Wellington Street</b></span><br>
<span style="font-family:
"Calibri","sans-serif"; color: black;"> From
mid-May, Council will seek community feedback on a proposal to
construct new bike lanes in Wellington Street, Collingwood. This
project was identified as a key priority in Council’s Bicycle
Strategy, which sets out to create five major separated on-road
bicycle routes by 2013. Council is proposing to construct
‘Copenhagen’ bike lanes in the section of Wellington Street
between Johnston Street and Victoria Street. Copenhagen lanes
are designed to physically separate cyclists and motorists.
Under Council’s proposed plan, one side of the street would be
separated by a lane of parked cars and the other side would be
separated by a raised strip.</span><br>
