The minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal says there are no plans to include bicycle lanes in the Riverside Drive project in Charlottetown. MacKinley said it is far too busy a stretch of highway.
“Sidewalks would be a decision by the city themselves,” the minister said, noting that the City of Charlottetown could apply for funding for a sidewalk through the federal Gas Tax Fund (which pays the entire cost) or through infrastructure dollars (these costs would be shared by all three levels of government). “I’ve never seen too many residents taking a walk there.”
