Bike Friendly Communities

Our vision is that all people - residents or visitors, of all ages & abilities - can cycle to anywhere within their local Prince Edward Island communities, using a universally accessible, safe, and comfortable network of cycling infrastructure. BFC transforms communities through accessible, interconnected active transportation infrastructure and creates a bike-friendly culture so that all people feel safe and empowered to choose cycling as a primary mode of transportation. Community Engagement Building connections between communities to create a shared vision and a culture of cycling on PEI. Advocacy Building support for the establishment of active transportation infrastructure on PEI through research, planning, consultation and activism. Education Building knowledge so that everyone feels empowered to choose cycling as a primary mode of transportation on PEI. We envision comprehensive active transportation networks (not just paint!) that make it safe and accessible for all people to choose cycling — not just for sports and recreation, but for making purposeful trips as part of their daily lives. Choosing cycling means participating in a convenient, healthy, and zero-emissions transportation option. Our work will transform communities across the Island to make it possible for all Islanders to safely choose cycling, whether commuting to work or school, running errands, or visiting friends and family.
