Public Dialogue: “Serious Cash for Cycling” May 2nd 2013

The British Columbia Cycling Coalition (BCCC) is hosting a panel
discussion about the future of funding for cycling in BC. This
election, cycling organizations are endorsing a Provincial Cycling
Strategy which includes the recommendation that the province invest
$75 million a year to improve cycling facilities and provide education
for people of all ages and abilities. Isn't it time to make this kind
of serious investment in cycling?

Please join our three panelists as they discuss the future of cycling
funding in BC:

Richard Campbell, President of the British Columbia Cycling Coalition
Erin O'Melinn, Executive Director of HUB:Your Cycling Connection
John Richards, School of Public Policy, SFU, Harbour Centre

What: Free Public Dialogue about the Future of Cycling Funding in BC

Where: Simon Fraser University, Harbour Centre

When: May 2nd from 12:30 to 2:00pm.

Space is limited, so please register here.
