• communicate how previous public input informed the designs;
• collect public feedback on the designs to help prioritize the projects; and
• summarize public feedback on the designs for the final report to City Council.

Please see the "Previous Engagement" tab for descriptions and videos for past online meetings from Phase 2.

The City of Saskatoon is committed to promoting active transportation and providing transportation choices that are safe and comfortable for people of all ages and abilities year round. That's why we're currently undertaking the Neighbourhood Bikeways Project. It will help identify measures to provide more travel choices and improve safety, accessibility and connectivity.

The project will include the evaluation and design of walking and cycling facility improvements for each of the following streets:

• 14^th Street East, from Saskatchewan Crescent to Cumberland Avenue;
• Dudley Street, from Dawes Avenue to Spadina Crescent;
• Victoria Avenue, from 8^th Street E to Taylor Street E;
• 3^rd Avenue, from 25^th Street E to 2^nd Avenue N; and
• 29^th Street W (or 31^st Street W) from Circle Drive to Idylwyld Drive.

These streets have been selected for review because they provide important connections to existing or future walking and cycling facilities or were identified in the Active Transportation Plan (AT Plan). The AT Plan proposed a long term bicycle network for Saskatoon based on road classification, neighbourhood context, and existing conditions.

Public Open Houses - Phase 1

The objectives of the first phase of public engagement, which occurred in the first two weeks of March, were:

• present general information to the public regarding active transportation and neighbourhood bikeways;
• provide participants an opportunity to discuss concerns, considerations and possible improvements regarding all forms of transportation in their area; and
• to help inform the neighbourhood bikeway designs that will be specifically tailored for each corridor's transportation needs.

This phase of engagement included five open houses held in the corridor areas, as well as an online survey. You can review the Open House information boards for detail on the Neighbourhood Bikeways Project and the current state of the identified corridors.
