Cyclists were rallying at the south Osborne underpass Thursday at noon. They are upset about changes to the city’s new Rapid Transit Corridor.

Original plans called for a 3.6 km bike trail, but part of that bike trail near the south Osborne underpass has now been cut out of the plans.  Paul Jordan of the Winnipeg Trails Association says the underpass is too dangerous for cyclists to use.

The trails association is now launching a campaign to try to get the word out about the changes.
