Description (French)
Nous cherchons à mettre en œuvre une série de projets à Mómeqwem qui ont été identifiés dans notre plan de transport actif (2021). Ces projets comprennent la construction de sentiers polyvalents, de trottoirs, d'un sentier pédestre et d'un nouveau pont de transport actif traversant le ruisseau McLennan. Les projets fourniront à nos membres des installations accessibles et continues pour la marche et le vélo qui sont sûres, confortables et reliées à des destinations au sein de la communauté.
Les résultats principaux de ces projets sont les suivants
-840 m de nouveau sentier polyvalent pavé (asphalte) de 3,0 m de largeur.
-250 m de sentier pavé (asphalte ou gravier dur) d'une largeur de 2,0 m
-210 m de nouveau trottoir pavé de 2,0 m de large
-Un nouveau pont à travée unique d'environ 25 m de long et 3 m de large, destiné aux usagers des transports actifs (pas de véhicules).
-Aménagement paysager et bancs associés
-Éclairage public et signalisation associés
Accroître les possibilités de marcher et de faire du vélo dans notre communauté est un engagement à long terme pour notre pays afin d'atteindre les objectifs de sécurité, de santé et de bien-être liés au transport.
