The City of Fredericton recognizes the importance of improving its walking, cycling, and transit networks to encourage residents to leave the car at home and choose a safe, active, and low carbon commute instead.
What is the city doing?
Guided by the Active Transportation Connection Plan (PDF), the Transit Strategic Plan (PDF), and the forthcoming Electric Vehicle Strategy, the City is investing in a variety of sustainable transportation initiatives, including:
- Building new trails, sidewalks, and bike lanes
- Developing by-laws to support safe use of our multi-use trails by all users
- Improving transit service with new technology
- Installing electric vehicle chargers on City-owned property
- Upgrading transportation infrastructure (e.g., roundabouts at key intersections) and equipment (e.g., smart traffic signals) to reduce congestion and travel times
- Promoting our multi-use trail network to residents and visitors
