• DWV
  • Peter has been appointed to the environmental committee which will hopefully embrace AT.
  • DCAP(District Climate Action Plan) is established for DWV with scant mention of Active Transportation.
  • DWV does not have a Mobility Plan but there is increased pressure to have one as new transit routes proposed by North Shore Connects committee may soon be funded.
