"An Award goes to an ambitious pedestrian and cycling plan in old Quebec City鈥攐ne of Canada鈥檚 most historic and valued urban precincts. Part study and part master plan, this was a well -researched, comprehensive, innovative and beautifully presented project.

"The plan reflects the unique history, topography, climate, and built form of old Quebec City and considers it from a cyclist鈥檚 perspective. While certainly not a standardized template, the plan provides an example of how other cities and towns might successfully plan for pedestrians and cyclists."

"It is an extremely comprehensive infrastructure planning study whose novelty lies鈥攊n part鈥攊n the inclusion of non-traditional considerations such as topography, scenic views, and character, solar exposure, and heritage interpretation. The analysis is exhaustive and the rationale for the various proposed strategies and policies clearly articulated and communicated. The proposed site interventions, such as the treatment of intersections, are simple but effective and refreshingly responsive to contextualized conditions. The use of a permanent 鈥渨orkgroup鈥� of various stakeholders throughout the project is commendable. An outstanding framework for guiding the improvement of pedestrian and cycling infrastructure at the scale of a large urban district鈥攅specially given the complexity and historical significance of its context."
