The Town of Whitby's Cycling and Leisure Trails Plan provides recommendations to Council related to:

• A connected network of cycling and leisure trails with priority segments
• Design tools to create the network and facilities
• Supporting policies and related initiatives
• Monitoring, asset management and maintenance

Plan objectives

The vision for the Plan includes three key objectives involving families, workplaces and the waterfront:

1. Creating links and routes in neighbourhoods that are comfortable for families to use, so that they can walk or ride to school and access local destinations.
2. Creating links and routes that provide access to residential neighbourhoods to the employment and commercial centres in Whitby and in nearby municipalities.
3. Creating comfortable routes that provide access to the Waterfront Trail and its amenities, and to the quiet roads in rural Whitby to the north.
