Next Webinar - Lessons from Ontario: Engaging people with disabilities in Micromobility Projects
Wednesday, October 15th at 3:00 p.m. EDT
In this webinar, municipal practitioners will share a variety of methods for engaging people with disabilities based on bikeway design in Toronto and a shared e-scooter/e-bike program in Ajax. The Toronto example will look at how participants’ feedback has been used to refine future design standards and enhance consistency in accessibility. The Ajax example discusses engaging pedestrians with disabilities, notably people with sight loss, in implementing a campaign encouraging safer behaviours among people using e-scooters and e-bikes.
APBP Project Spotlight:
Market Trail
The Market Trail is a AAA, shared-use “Rail with Trail” project along the Region-owned rail corridor from Northfield ION LRT station in Waterloo to the Market District in Woolwich. Market Trail features lighting, benches, and bike racks with space for a future bike and scooter share program. To support workers, residents, and visitors, the Region built access ramps to connect employers to the trail. The trail is winter-maintained to support use and access to transit year-round.
