And a few more suggestions:
- indicate the bus routes with racks (2,95,97)
- make the type more legible
- make the inks more legible under streetlights
Jennifer, please convey my compliments on the map's design.

I don't know when the next Ottawa bike map gets designed, but I'd
like to suggest some improvements.
- list phone numbers, web sites, addresses, and emails of:
- local bike clubs
- road repair dept.
- local bike stores (charge for listing?)
- places to rent bikes
- indicate which roads are cleared first in the winter. Main roads
are obvious, but Holmwood, for example, is not distinguished.
- move into the legend the line which indicates how big several miles
or kilometres are
- list scale, e.g. 1:75,000, in legend
- indicate locations (on map) of local stores which repair bikes -
perhaps with a wrench as a symbol? Could be keyed with a letter to
the local bike store list above.
- locations (on map) of places to rent bikes - for tourists.
- There are some unexplained symbols on the bike path near Tunney's
pasture. Could this be explained in the legend?
Perhaps others have some good ideas to add as well?
