What would it take to set up a cycling network in Stouffville?

That question will be discussed at a public information centre hosted by the town on Wednesday, Jan. 25.

Part of the town-initiated Active Transportation Servicing Plan, the info session invites all residents for consultation to determine the infrastructure requirements of a pedestrian and cycling network.

The network could cover communities of Stouffville and Ballantrae-Musselman’s Lake.

The town says infrastructure needs for such a project are dependent on active transportation needs, integration with town capital works and regional transportation plans, compatibility between cycling infrastructure and vehicle parking requirements, and financial considerations.

The public information centre will run in a drop-in format at 6240 Main St., from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
