Bicycle Boulevard
The Department of Transport runs a Safe Active Streets Program. Through this program, they identified the City of Belmont’s Surrey Road as a suitable street for an exciting new pilot project: a Bicycle Boulevard.
The project aimed to make a local street safer and more community-friendly by lowering vehicle speeds and making it easier for people to ride their bikes for local trips to places such as school, community facilities, shops or local parks.
