Why Your City Needs More Bike Lanes

You wouldn't think bike lanes would be so divisive. Urban planners and cycling advocates make compelling arguments why every community should prioritize pedal-powered transportation. But still, we see outcry every time a Canadian city (like Edmonton or Calgary) invests in that type of infrastructure. What's missing from public debate? Is it possible to get everybody on the same page? 

2:30 | No matter how you feel about bikes, bike lanes, public transit, or city planning, we guarantee you'll learn something from our Real Talk Round Table: Dutch Cycling Embassy's Chris Bruntlett, MADE's Danielle Soneff, and Paths for People's Stephen Raitz.
