New bike lane will close one gap in city’s active transportation network: advocates
KAMLOOPS — The city’s first separated, protected bike lane is being built along Sixth Avenue from Columbia to Landsdowne Streets. It’s part of the City’s plan to add active transportation options to routes all around town, and cycling advocates are looking forward to the new route.
“The more infrastructure that we see developed in Kamloops, the more appealing it is going to be for people to get out and use their bikes for transportation,” said Deb Alore, founding member of the Kamloops Cycling Coalition.
There are many painted-on bike lanes in Kamloops — the ones along Valleyview Drive, for example.
