However the Region of Waterloo‘s manager of transportation would be built during planned reconstruction and resurfacing of the section of road, scheduled for 2001, at an estimated cost of $1.4 million. A University of Waterloo environmental studies student says the number one reason why more UW students and staff don‘t bicycle to UW is because of a lack of offâ€"campus bicycle lanes. Jason Whitheld said in a recent interview that in a survey he conducted with four other UW students earlier this year, 58 per cent of 400 UW staff members and students surveyed said the number one issue that would encourage them to cycle to UW would be the installation of more offâ€"campus bicycle lanes.

Fifty Aour per cent said better lighting on paths would be their major consideration while 52 per cent said UW needed increased surveillance to reduce theft. Fiftyâ€"one per cent said more bicycle routes had to be established on campus while the same percentâ€" age said more bicycle lanes had to be constructed along UW‘s Banks said because the region usually doesn‘t construct bicycle lanes on roads unless they need reconstruction or resurfacing. and because University Avenue between Westmount Road North and Albert Street is currently in good shape, he didn‘t believe that section of road would receive bicycle lanes in the next 10 years.
