Much of this growth is due to the City’s support for green transportation initiatives to make roads safer and more comfortable for cyclists and pedestrians. Expanding the bicycle network is an important strategy in the City’s effort to reduce traffic congestion to become a more sustainable city.

    The 2016 census of Canada shows that 2.3% of Vancouver’s population commuted by bike (see data attached). In 1996 the census showed that 1.7% of the population commuted by bike.
