The mayor of Beaconsfield is concerned about a proposed bike path that would link the Beaurepaire exo commuter train station with the future REM station in Kirkland.
Georges Bourelle says surveys need to be done to determine the number of cyclists that would use it and justify the cost of building the path.
“If we have very few bikes using this bike lane all the way from the Woodland to the REM station in Kirkland, well, you know, is it worth it?” Bourelle told Global News.
He says the proposal is being made by Montreal’s executive committee and would have to pass the agglomeration council, which oversees decision-making on the entire island.

“We don’t know what the utilization is going to be. If I look at the bike racks here at Beaurepaire, there are three bikes,” Bourelle said.
