The question it is checked under
Did the City consult the affected neighbourhoods, and do residents oppose the bike lanes?
This claim is checked as part of that question. One brief covers every claim under it, and each claim still gets its own finding.
The investigation's outcomeGoing ahead
Project engagement records can show whom the City consulted and what participants said, while the claim about most Edmontonians should be dropped unless a representative citywide survey exists.

none of the residents were actually informed by Ashley Salvador of the proposed bike plan in 2020. Many of us are aware of it in 2026.
