About Our Mission
Capital Bike and Walk’s
mission is to provide expert advice on infrastructure, programs and
strategies to support the choice for cycling and walking.
CBWS hosts workshops on walking and cycling,
and conducts audits and analysis of the walking and cycling environment in
the Capital Region.
We have also published a “Downtown Victoria
Walking Map” that highlights routes and features of Canada’s most walkable
city. Watch for a second edition of the map to appear and for our on-line
format on the website soon. Many thanks to sponsors:
• Go for Green
• The Greater Victoria Harbour Authority
• Dockside Green
• The City of Victoria Engineering Department
We are also working on a new bicycle
parking manual to help planners and engineers, developers and architects.
“Bikes at Rest” is supported by:
• Translink – the Greater Vancouver
Transportation Authority
• Mountain Equipment Coop
Our work on cycling and walking issues is
featured on the website where you will find research and resources on design
issues.
Capital Bike and Walk is at work on many
fronts. Check in from time to time to see what’s new.
