Why is the City changing the layout of our roads?

The Transportation Master Plan for the City of Greater Sudbury recommends a network of cycling facilities to be installed throughout the community. The plan also recommended the development of a process for filling gaps in the pedestrian network by installing new sidewalks or paved paths, where needed.

For more information about the recommended cycling facility network, visit Section 9 of the Transportation Master Plan: www.greatersudbury.ca/live/transportation-parking-and-roads/road-plans-and-studies/transportation-master-plan/

In 2017, Council adopted the Sidewalk Priority Index, which is a tool used to prioritize investments in the pedestrian network, based on variety of criteria including traffic volumes, speeds, adjacent land uses, proximity to schools and other pedestrian generators.
