On Thursday, Nov. 8 from 7-9 p.m., Toronto’s Metropolitan Reference Library will host the conference “Steps Towards a Walkable City” as part of the third instalment of a series of workshops aiming to make Toronto a “great walkable city.” The meeting will provide a framework for public discussion on the priorities and appropriate resources needed to establish a successful walking strategy. The general public, as well as Toronto’s city council and other city agencies, will be presented with proposed policies and asked for feedback. The Walking Strategy is part of the city’s suggested shift away from the use of vehicles as a mode of transportation, and towards a more pedestrian- oriented system.
