My civic issue has to do with bicycles and the benefits of wellness it has on the environment and community. There are many positive environmental impacts that come with cycling, due to it being clean without the burning of fuels or emissions. It as well can help to lead to good health by being a great source of exercise. Many people in todays society forget all the good that come with cycling and neglect the idea of it. I feel as if not enough people are aware of this neglecting and need to be informed. To encourage more people to get out and bike, I feel as if creating more bike lanes throughout communities will help end this issue. It gives cyclists the feeling of safety on the road so this would help promote more people to use the lane.
To the Ministry Of Community and Social Services,
We, the undersigned, call on the Ministry Of Community and Social Services to create more bike lanes throughout communities. We come together because of a mutual concern for the negligence of bicycles and the on going concern of the safety of the cyclist. Forming bike lanes throughout communities will help to promote more people to use their bike, whether it be on their commute to work or as a basic way of transportation. Bike lanes will encourage more people because it gives cyclists with a feeling of security on the roads, and it differentiates them from the other vehicles on the busy road. This issue has been on going for to long and needs to be dealt with.
