a photo depicting cycling in Hamilton About The Hamilton Cycling Committee


The Hamilton Cycling Committee is an advisory committee to the City of Hamilton Public Works Department.

We are comprised of citizens, recreational and commuter cyclists and city staff. What we have in common is a desire to make cycling safe, fun and easy to do in Hamilton.  Spring is here, so expect an increase in cyclists.  Auto drivers are reminded to "Share the Road".  To further promote this message stop by any of the
bike shops in Hamilton and pick up a free "Share the Road" car magnet to spread the message (while quantities last).  Cyclists are legally required to NOT cycle on sidewalks.

Some of the objectives of the Hamilton Cycling Committee's mandate are:
  • To provide a liaison between cyclists and the City
  • To advise staff and Council on bicycling facilities and issues
  • To promote cycling as a feasible modality in Hamilton
  • To further cycling safety - click on the "safety" tab on the left for more safety tips
The Hamilton Cycling Committee meets the first Wednesday of every month at 5:00 p.m.at Hamilton City Centre (room 350B). We welcome those enthusiastic about cycling to drop by and attend one of our meetings.
