City of Brampton has a portal for all things cycling in the city.
The City’s first ever Active Transportation Master Plan, endorsed by Brampton City Council on September 25, 2019, provides the network plan, policies and programs to support Brampton’s 2040 Vision for a mosaic of safe, integrated transportation choices and new modes, contributions to civic sustainability, and emphasizing walking, cycling, and transit.
Active Transportation (walking, cycling and other self-propelled mobility options) presents one of the greatest untapped opportunities for reducing single occupant vehicle trips, and for addressing a host of community design and public health issues. Incorporating global best practices in active transportation and promoting the concept of ‘complete streets’ and ‘sustainable’ community design is a guiding principle for the City’s planning and engineering efforts.
The Active Transportation Master Plan focuses on the implementation strategy for building a connected cycling and pedestrian network across the City (and connecting to neighbouring municipalities) to enable safer, more convenient travel by non-motorized modes, and to encourage cycling as a viable means of transportation for both recreational and utilitarian purposes for the general public.
The Cycling Advisory Committee is an official committee of Council, consisting of between 8 and 12 citizen volunteer members and one Member of Council. At least 2 members represent each of the 4 quadrants in the City.
• Northeast of Highway 410 and Queen Street East;
• Southeast of Highway 410 and Queen Street East;
• Southwest of Highway 410 and Queen Street East; and,
• Northwest of Highway 410 and Queen Street East.
The Council representative on the committee will be a voting member but not be required for quorum. Quorum will be achieved with a majority of members.
Founded in 1972, the Brampton Cycling Club is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and enjoying road riding in the western Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
