Why did the province not exempt Segways from municipal bylaws banning motor vehicles from sidewalks, paths and trails?
• Municipalities are best qualified to manage the mix of pedestrians and vehicles on municipal sidewalks. • This regulation preserves local decision-making but allows municipalities the option to pass bylaws to allow Segways on the sidewalk and in other pedestrian areas. • In municipalities where Segway use is banned on sidewalks, Segways will still be able to operate on the roadway.
