HALIFAX:<\/strong> A large crowd of bike lane supporters gathered at Grand Parade on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group was there to send a message and protest Halifax Mayor Andy Fillmore’s motion that was to come to council later Tuesday pausing bike lanes throughout the municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The supporters were hopeful they would be heard by the other councillors and that would lead to the motion being defeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matt Dagley was at the bike rally and provides this report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(At the end of the discussion, the motion to pause new bike lane projects was defeated by council 12-5.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
