Green Pedestrian Highway on the Right Track

A new green pedestrian highway that will link Langford’s neighbourhoods with cycle and pedestrian routes is a great idea on a number of levels. Providing safe, convenient access to Langford’s neighbourhoods, parks, lakes and attractions promotes a healthy lifestyle by encouraging more people to walk or cycle within Langford. It will also reduce the number of vehicles on the road, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and that’s good for the environment. It’s an ambitious plan that will take some time to complete, but I believe the benefits for the entire community in terms of getting around Langford, health, the environment and sustainability will be well worth the effort.
