  • Essex Windsor Regional Transportation Master Plan
    ESSEX-WINDSOR REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN Technical Report IBI Group With October, 2005 Paradigm Transportation Solutions Essex-Windsor Regional Transportation Master Plan MAJOR STUDY FINDINGS & EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PART 1: MAJOR STUDY FINDINGS Official Plan policies of both the County of Essex and the City of Windsor acknowledge that comprehensive regional transportation policies and implementation strategies are needed to effectively address regional transportation needs now through to 2021. This is needed because during this time period, the City and County combined are expected to grow by about 92,000 more residents and 53,000 jobs. The location and form of this growth will have a significant impact on the capability of the existing transportation system, and specifically the major roadway system, to serve the added travel needs. Coupled with this is the overall background growth in trip-making throughout the Essex-Windsor region, and the amount of cross-border traffic moving through the region. This is why the regional transportation plan has taken a very integrated transportation/land use planning approach, with as much emphasis on demand-side issues such as trip-making characteristics and travel mode choice, as on the more traditional supply-side alternatives dealing with major roadway widenings and extensions. The transportation planning approach used in this study emphasizes the integration of land use and transportation planning in Essex-Windsor region. Continued regional growth will put pressure on strategic parts of the transportation system, reducing its ability to move people and goods safely and efficiently in these parts of the region. Other transportation system needs will continue to grow in response to growth in international cross-border traffic, and are addressed more specifically in the Lets Get Windsor-Essex Moving initiatives, the Detroit River International Crossing Study and the Windsor Gateway Report prepared for the City of Windsor by Sam Schwartz Engineering PLLC and released in January 2005.

  • U.S.-Canada Greenways Vision Map Will Bridge the Gap Between Emerging Trails and Bicycle Lanes
    For Immediate Release: 24 April 2016 U.S.-Canada Greenways Vision Map Will Bridge the Gap Between Emerging Trails and Bicycle Lanes Windsor, Ontario/Detroit, Michigan – A U.S. - Canadian partnership is hoping a new map will encourage people to grab their bikes and explore both sides of the Detroit River. The group has released a binational greenways vision map to connect emerging international greenways, trails, and bike lanes, establishing safe and convenient routes for pedestrians and bicyclists. It is the vision of these Canadian and U.S. partners to encourage stronger linkages between emerging greenways of southwest Ontario and southeast Michigan via a future dedicated bike lane on the new Gordie Howe Bridge and a possible future ferry system between Windsor and Detroit. Greenways are connections that link communities, parks, nature areas, cultural features, economic centers, and historic sites. Based on experience throughout the world, greenways promote outdoor recreation, catalyze ecotourism and economic development, promote healthier life styles, provide safe alternatives to motorized transportation, increase adjacent property values, celebrate historical and cultural assets, promote conservation and environmental education, and improve quality of life. Windsor and Detroit share the same ecosystem and have much in common culturally, socially, economically, and historically. Each has a unique greenway system. For example, the City of Winsor maintains 128 km (79.5 miles) of trails, including the Windsor Loop that is a 42.5-km (26.4-mile) loop when completed will traverse around the City’s perimeter, joining neighborhoods and providing access to the Trans Canada Trail. The Rt. Hon. Herb Gray Parkway trails will soon be open, offering an additional 20 km (12.4 miles) of greenways.

  • Greenway Trials in Windsor, Ontario
    Greenway Trials in Windsor, Ontario Lori Newton, Executive Director, Bike Windsor Essex, [email protected] Background Greenways are linear open spaces, including habitats and trails, that link parks, nature areas, cultural features, or historic sites with each other, for recreation and conservation purposes. Based on experience throughout North America, greenways promote outdoor recreation, catalyze economic development, increase adjacent property values, celebrate historical and cultural assets, promote conservation and environmental education, and improve quality of life. Greenways can provide an exceptional outdoor recreational experience that reconnects children and families to natural resources, and that builds a stewardship ethic. It should not be surprising that greenways are an enormous source of community pride. Windsor has a long history of greenways dating back to the 1960s. Windsor's Department of Parks and Recreation maintains 12 km2 of green space, 180 parks, and 64 km of trails. Beginning in the 1960s, Windsor started creating a shared-usage trail network, initially called the "Windsor Loop," that circumnavigates around the entire city and connects to neighboring communities (Table 1). The longest greenway trail in this network is the Roy A. Battagello River Walk (built in the late 1960s, and upgraded/widened several times), stretching from west of the Ambassador Bridge to the historical Hiram Walker Distillery, a distance of about 8 km.

    THE PLACE FOR LIFE. In 2017, as part of its Centennial Legacy Program, the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918) donated $225,000 to help build the Rotary (1918) Centennial Hub, linking the Chrysler Canada Greenway with the Herb Gray Parkway trails, and trails in the Towns of LaSalle and Tecumseh. In so doing, the Rotary Club effectively helped fill in a gap in the greenway system, and with the creation of the trail, the Greenway system links every community in Windsor Essex. Not to be outdone, in 2018 the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918) committed an additional $20,000 over four years to create the Rotary Forest - a shared project of all Rotary Clubs and all Rotarians in Windsor Essex. These projects not only contribute to the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918)’s legacy in Windsor Essex; they also contribute to an incredible legacy for the region - projects that connect communities, restore landscapes and habitats, and ultimately help create a place where people want to live in, play in, and invest in. The Rotary Club of Windsor (1918), more than most, recognizes the important connections between healthy economies, healthy people, and healthy landscapes. As part of the Club’s ongoing commitment to raising awareness and celebrating all the Windsor-Essex region has to offer, the Club, President Jules Hawkins introduced the “50 Awesome Environmental Fact about Windsor Essex’ as a way of increasing awareness of our regional environment. This is a compilation of those 50 Awesome Environmental Facts - an encouragement for Rotarians to get out and explore, enjoy, and celebrate what makes this region the #Place for LIfe.
