Moving Cochrane forward
Walking, scootering and cycling offer more than just a way to get around — they enhance quality of life, reduce traffic congestion and support local businesses. Active transportation attracts eco-conscious visitors, fosters a healthier community and helps preserve Cochrane’s natural beauty.
Through ongoing efforts, we are expanding our pathway network, making it safe and accessible for residents and visitors to walk and cycle throughout the community. Every pathway is considered a key transportation corridor, so we ensure they are fully accessible and maintained year-round to provide residents with reliable transportation options in all seasons.
To further enhance pedestrian and cycling infrastructure, Cochrane is developing an active transportation plan. In line with this vision, an e-scooter pilot project with Bird Canada is already making it easier for people to get around, offering another convenient, sustainable way to travel.
