Montreal Bike Paths Overflowing: Cyclists Face Heavy Traffic

Montreal Cyclists Encounter Heavy Traffic on Popular Path A recent cycling excursion in Montreal highlighted the increasing popularity of the city's bike paths, particularly along the Lachine Canal. Élisabeth Abbatiello, a Montreal resident, shared a video of her and her companion's 40km ride, which began near the Old Port. "Honestly, the counts are rose," Abbatiello commented, referring to the sheer number of cyclists they encountered. The ride wasn't without its challenges; a planned route was blocked, forcing a detour. Despite this, the pair enjoyed the scenic views and concluded their day with a relaxing meal at a restaurant overlooking the canal. The video serves as a reminder of the growing popularity of cycling in Montreal and the need for improved infrastructure to accommodate the increasing number of cyclists.
