Victoria sustainable and active tranportation event

The Greater Victoria Cycling Coalition invites to attend Changing Gears, an expo and speaker series on sustainable and active transportation, hosted by the BC Sustainable Energy Association.

Changing Gears is about:

• understanding the impacts of fossil-fuel transportation on our environment
• re-designing streets  and urban space to encourage “people places”, interaction, health and vibrancy in our communities
• developing infrastructures to support “active transportation” (pedestrian and bicycle) lifestyles throughout the Capital Region
• extending the reach, frequency, comfort and diversity of transit options

There will be workshops from BC Transit, City of Victoria, BC Sustainable Energy Association, University of Victoria, Capital Bike and More Society, and more.
GVCC President Edward Pullman and Vice-President Ray Straastma will be presnting our report on the Victoria Bicycle Master Plan and our Bikes Means Business report, respectively.
