Montreal converted this slip-lane into a tactical plaza along Rue Saint-Denis. Now, plans call for 29 new homes over ground floor retail alongside a permanent pedestrian street. Our streets have the power to transform our cities if we're willing to think outside the box.
@berkie1 This area is so well served by bike infrastructure; it’s on the Réseau Express Vélo (“Express Bike Network”), new within the last 5 years. These are year-round protected bike lanes with priority at intersections. This stretch saw 1.5M riders in 2023. montreal.ca/en/articles/eb…

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

Here in Nashville I’ve watched a handful of ppl dedicate themselves attending city planning meetings to stop building homes, businesses, & transit. It’s insane how the city yields to least informed & loudest voices at the expense of implementing lifesaving best practices.

Even on a day when subway is closed, EMS manages to get through. Many motorists insist, however, on driving alone instead of taking TTC, cycling, carpooling, taking an alternate route, or deferring a trip. It’s apparently easier to blame the bike lane. #biketo

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via @StreetsblogUSA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/29/pro…

Check out the 2023 @TO_Cycling_Ped report. Great stats to review such as "More people cycle on streets where there is designated space for cycling: 61% of people cycling were travelling within bikeways, compared to 39% who were cycling on streets without bikeways present."#biketo

The bumping from the expansion joints in the concrete is something else. I know the camera mount+mic may be exaggerating the bumpiness but the Living Arts Drive pilot was in 2019. At what point does the city pave a layer of asphalt over the concrete? mississauga.ca/city-of-missis…
I much rather prefer the bike lanes on Living Arts where the bike lanes are parking protected, but even those aren't immune from vehicles parking in them (video from around 9:30 this morning).
Called into 311 this afternoon after encountering these vehicles in the bike lane at M City Condos. Took about 3-4 minutes to ask for enforcement for vehicles parked in the bike lane.

If anyone wants to submit a complaint to federal authorities (CWS) about breeding migratory birds being put at risk by haphazard exclusion netting applied at Ontario Place, maybe start with these contacts: new.geds-sage.gc.ca/en/GEDS?pgid=0… Make sure to include photo documentation— see 🧵
This is a contravention of Canada’s Migratory Bird Convention Act and Species at Risk Act waiting to happen. This is NOT how exclusion netting like this is meant to be used. Birds returning to their breeding grounds will very likely get tangled in it and die.

If you live in a city with a consensus that multifamily residences and mass transit are for poor people your city will never experience what makes the world’s best cities such enjoyable and livable destinations.
UPDATE: I've coordinated with Transportation Services (TS) to get TS staff onsite now to identify opportunities to improve congestion through traffic management changes and to ensure Bike Share staff will be available to refill local Bike Share stations often over the weekend.
No trains are running between Kipling + Jane stations due to a track-level fence fire that started around 3:30 p.m. yesterday. The fire spread, severely damaging a signaling box and communication cables critical to subway operations. TTC crews are repairing the infrastructure.
@nataliehhhh @AlexanderGlista My heart really breaks 💔 for the “under” housed in my community who don’t have the resources+skills+mobility to pick up and plant roots someplace greener and safer, be it in Mississauga or elsewhere — for the sake of their kids.
I cannot stress enough how hard it is to build and operate transit that's useful when places look like this...
@TorontoStar Quick question Steve. How do we enforce with no a consequence system and we are short staffed?
