ITE Southwestern Ontario: August Bike Tour Waiver

Bike Tour Details:
Transportation planning is always evolving. The proliferation of personal electric mobility and the shift in designing to accommodate cyclists of all ages and abilities has had a profound impact on our City’s mobility system. London had an excellent foundation to build upon, the City’s beloved pathway system (the Thames Valley Parkway), and has continued to expand its protected cycling network starting in its core.

This tour will take participants on a journey to experience some of the newest and most-loved parts of London’s cycling network. We’ll ride on multi-use pathways, protected bike lanes, cycle tracks, quiet streets and a flex street. We’ll get to see sections of BRT that are completed and under construction, a variety of intersection treatments, a multi-use path rail crossing, and experience some of the up-and-coming neighbourhoods and development within London. Not to mention lots of time along the beautiful Thames River.

Tour Lead:

Daniel Hall is a transportation planner/ engineer focused on implementing cycling and walking infrastructure improvements in the City of London. With a background in transit planning and cycling advocacy, and as a committed cyclist, he brings many perspectives to his design and planning efforts. He’s currently planning a bike trip to Ottawa for the end of August.

A long-time resident of London, Daniel and his wife Jess have two children aged 9 and 11. As a goal, Daniel aspires to create a transportation network for London that allows for comfortable and convenient travel by all abilities and by all modes of travel and helps to develop a city where he doesn’t have to drive his kids to their friend’s houses or their first job.
