There will be an exhibition in Ottawa next week about the steps being taken in Berlin, Germany, to encourage the development of a cycling/pedestrian friendly environment.

A promotional blurb for the event states, "This exhibition illustrates a number of measures the City of Berlin has taken to encourage active commuting among its citizenry, such as cycling, walking or public transit. This exhibition features a dozen Berlin neighbourhoods, with photos and texts illustrating the initiatives taken to make city living more pleasant and to foster cyclist- and pedestrian-friendly urban development."

The exhibition will be on display at Saint Paul University from March 14 to 24. Admission is free. Click here for more information about this event.
