It would only take paint and signs to create a bus lane here (if I'm locating this correctly). Do any of the #bcpoli candidates in #yyj want to get bus lanes built NOW? Maybe Greens @SoniaFurstenau? @NTaylorSaanich? @TeamCurrieESC? @cwinter_vts? @drlisagunderson? @AdamPOlsen?

The slip lane at No. 2 and Westminster in Richmond is a key contributor to the intersection’s 239 crashes Such slip lanes encourages speeding through turns, meaning that local residents must risk their lives twice daily just to walk to and from the bus stops @VisionZeroYVR

Wow: internal documents show that the oil industry has known *all along* that methane leaks make 'natural' gas a climate disaster, but instead of slowing production, they funded skewed research and PR efforts to pitch it as a climate solution. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a…
Happy TSPR Day to all who celebrate: [TransLink releases its ridership data once a year and it is a TREASURE TROVE of useful data. More to come.] What are your takeaways from it? buzzer.translink.ca/2024/04/transl…
At the @APTA_info conference, a Vancouver, Canada public transit planner said that they keep increasing frequencies to address overcrowding, but it just induces more ridership so the crowding comes back. We haven't begun to saturate the market for fixed route bus service in…
Buses should matter to city planners, but they usually don't. Working with Ireland's National Transport Authority, we've just written the guidebook that they need. It's free. Read all about it: humantransit.org/2024/04/32037.…
During the last 10 years, the quality of design of bike infra in Montréal has skyrocketed thanks to a clear political input and a dynamic team in the city, but we remain stubbornly committed to ineffective, outdated bus priority design backed by total political indifference.
These folks have been advocating a long time, this is a huge win.

Let's reform zoning so apartments are allowed everywhere, but this guy can stay in a single family home. I don't want to live below that.

It is a Saturday afternoon and the bus bunching on the 19 is so bad that this bus with 15 minute headways is coming on 21, 21, and 23 minutes. I am so absolutely tired of walking 2.5kms because that’s the faster option.
No bike lanes on Bathurst street and it's still bumper to bumper traffic. Bicycles and bike lanes don't cause traffic, personal vehicles *are* the traffic. #BikeTO
Did you hear about this? The long reign of exclusionary single-family zoning 🏡 is being challenged in BC via a new piece of housing legislation that allows multiplexes on land currently restricted to single-family & duplex housing. #bcpoli #bchousingcrisis #vanpoli #vanhousing
The sheer amount of creativity and joy that North American planning eliminates, with its strict separation of uses. We should let people do things. Homes above shops. Shops next to homes. Homes on top of homes. People instead of cars.

Vancouver's former director of planning once told me that developers *like* negotiating exactly what's allowed in their developments, and I wanted to scream "that's because only the big+sophisticated developers can navigate your system"

Yes, doing and threatening violence against people is unacceptable and anathema to the cause of achieving peace, justice & wellbeing for all people in Palestine and Israel. But challenging the status quo requires challenging the status quo.
When we take their bait - when we join them in changing the conversation about what is protested - the brutal decimation of Palestinians with no intent to achieve hostage release - to the protests themselves, we aid the authoritarians domestic and foreign.
Authoritarians revel in creating conflict, in fingering new culprits, in fomenting division - all in order to hide the fact that they are the ones seizing freedoms, determined to hold total power and control over all who do not look, live and love like them.
LOL, I love this
We've heard of dancing like no one's watching, but BUS-ting a move on a bus is just as fun! 💃🚌 Another story of #MCTSExcellence
Our campaign for bus lanes on McKenzie to #UVic is on the front page of the @saanichnews! “For decades, we’ve been planning for more cars... but there’s huge benefits with planning for a future with fewer cars.” Read ➡️ saanichnews.com/local-news/saa… #Saanich #yyj
there are often two ways to take a business trip...
There's more work to be done. New Yorkers deserve new, efficient, and safe transportation choices from every borough traveling into the congestion pricing zone. The cameras turn on in less than two months, and we can’t afford to wait.
With congestion pricing coming, city officials planning for 37 new projects to expand bus, bike and pedestrian infrastructure, according to new report The MTA plans to begin tolling motorists on June 30 trib.al/rSdsqAT
This is a welcome step! Many of these projects will make more congestion pricing more effective, including: 🚲 New protected lanes along 72nd St + Richmond Terrace 🚍 New busways along 34th Ave + Tremont Ave 🌉 Dedicated bike + pedestrian space on the Queensboro

(1/2) There's a lot to like in the new West End waterfront plan, but returning 2-way traffic to Beach Ave is NOT one of them. It will add more traffic, smog, noise, and increase collisions in the area. We should not be wasting $6M in taxpayer money expanding roads downtown.
It would only take paint and signs to create a bus lane here (if I'm locating this correctly). Do any of the #bcpoli candidates in #yyj want to get bus lanes built NOW? Maybe Greens @SoniaFurstenau? @NTaylorSaanich? @TeamCurrieESC? @cwinter_vts? @drlisagunderson? @AdamPOlsen?

Reminder to everyone that Israel refuses to recognize the Bosnian genocide, Armenian genocide, Artsakh genocide, Kosovar genocide and Uyghur genocide.
🇮🇱🇧🇦 Israeli Ambassador to Serbia has stated that Israel does not recognize Srebrenica as a genocide: Srebrenica should not be called genocide. Israel has never accepted that the crime in Srebrenica be called genocide. When you call Srebrenica genocide, in my opinion, it…
I have never seen a protest that wasn’t escalated to violence the second police show up in riot gear and start making arrests. Student activism has always been a key feature of our democracy. We should protect it.
