Small Wheeled Transport Bylaw Survey

Survey Questions:

The City of Vernon is creating an updated bylaw provision to include Small Wheeled Transport (SWT) users. SWT is human-powered transportation using small diameter wheels such as skateboards, non-motorized scooters, roller skates, roller blades, longboards, etc., and children aged 12 and younger riding bicycles.

Public participation is a key element throughout this process. Your responses, comments and suggestions will help to create and refine the new SWT bylaw. For more information please contact Ellen Morrison, Municipal Technician III, Transportation at emorrison@vernon.ca or 250.550.3676.
