Active transportation such as biking should be encouraged by the City of Hamilton because it makes for a healthier and happier city and community. Bike lanes on Cannon St. would make cycling downtown easier, safer, and a more feasible option for many commuters!
I have to bike to work down Cannon and it would be amazing to see dedicated bike lanes.
It never feels safe on Cannon when cars fly past you leaving only inches to spare.
Bike lanes would also improve the street for residents. It would create a stronger feeling of community and encourage residents to put down roots on the street apposed to only passing through until they find a nicer street to live on.
I look forward to seeing Cannon Street being re-imagined creatively as an amazing bike route.

Cannon street slated for work - so let's make sure we get it right!
With the Pan Am Precinct revitalization plan, part of Cannon Street is already being considered for a redesign and roadwork. While the crews are there, we should make sure that we make Cannon work for all road users the entire length of Cannon - not just in one small section.
