My point exactly - if we want to encourage more people to cycle, we need to do everything we reasonably can to make it a viable means of transportation. Not everyone is a Lance Armstrong wannabe who loves doing risky and difficult 100 km rides everyday.

I have heard you spent a lot of time out west or in California or something. I know BC is mostly Crown Land.

Compare this with, say, Bedford South where the developers completely clear the whole area so that they can fill it with small cookie-cutter houses packed close together. See how many trees you can find in those developments...

1. We live here _because_ it has a semi-rural feel while still being only 20 minutes to downtown Halifax.

Why can't they widen and improve upon Hammonds Plains Rd? I know it would never be a 120 km/h highway, but it could be a 4-lane 70-80 km/h road (without limited access). I understand homes would be expropriated and there would be major traffic issues during construction, but is any solution perfect?

If you have ever driven on the Hammonds Plains Road, you would realize it is a death trap waiting to happen - no shoulders and lots of blind spots.

"These pages proudly serve the 1200 homes of Kingswood nestled among trees and wildlife in beautiful Hammonds Plains, Nova Scotia."

And:

"For those who do not know Kingswood, it is more than just a subdivision. Kingswood is set amongst thousands of acres of land which is home to ducks, deer, fox, birds and other types of wildlife.
