About The Hamilton Cycling Committee
The Hamilton Cycling Committee is an advisory committee
to the City of Hamilton Public Works Department.
We are comprised of citizens - including both recreational and commuter cyclists. What we have in common is a desire to make cycling safe, fun and easy in Hamilton. Auto drivers are reminded to "Share the Road".
To further promote this message stop by any of the
bike shops in
Hamilton and pick up a
free "Share the Road" car magnet to spread the message (while
quantities last).
The Hamilton Cycling Committee would appreciate input from the
community to determine "What value this car magnet
program has for you?" The committee is also curious to
know "Where and how often do you see these car magnets?"
Please click here to send a quick
email to share your feedback.

Other communities are welcome to use the image for similar
promotions. Here it is, but use the image at the bottom of this
webpage as it is at a higher resolution (100KB).
Some of the objectives of the Hamilton Cycling Committee's
mandate are:
- To provide a liaison between cyclists and the City
- To advise staff and Council on bicycling facilities and issues
- To advance cycling as a feasible mode of transport in Hamilton
- To promote cycling safety.
