A final report on Calgary’s downtown cycle track will be presented to councillors at city hall on Thursday.
The bike lanes – separated from traffic by a physical barrier – were built 18 months ago as part of a $5.45 million pilot project. However, the City of Calgary says the project is $1.66 million under budget.

Councillors will review the results of the report — as well as an Ipsos survey – on Dec. 8. They’ll then be tasked with making a decision on the future of the pilot project on Dec. 19.
Temporary cycle tracks currently exist on:
- 5 Street (on the east side from 3 Ave. S.W. to 17 Ave. S.W.)
- 12 Avenue (on the north side from 11 St. S.W. to 4 St. S.E.)
- 8 Avenue / 9 Avenue (on the north and south sides from 11 St. S.W. to 3 St. S.W. and Macleod Trail to 4 St. S.E.)
The city says the public is welcome to attend the meeting and give a five minute presentation.
