“For the cost of rebuilding a couple of freeway interchanges, a city could build its entire bike network.” (A reminder that better mobility doesn’t have to cost more — just be smarter.) Via @grist.org

It's a good time to explore our recently published map that tracks the potential impact of tariffs at neighbourhood level across Canada. They're sortable by specific goods (auto, steel, lumber, etc.) and according to their impact on businesses and employment https://ow.ly/fzRb50XkJHc

FREE HELMETS! 🛴🥳👻 Lime Canada is giving away helmets to support safe e-scooter use at the City Centre Transit Terminal in Mississauga on Fri. Oct. 31 from 2-5pm! www.insauga.com/free-helmets...

Pittsburgh reduces vehicle fatalities 30% one year after adopting a Vision Zero policy that includes the addition of bike lanes and speed humps. www.pghcitypaper.com/news-2/infra...

“Ontario’s plan to ban bike lanes is ripped from the business lobby’s wish list. Buried in a new omnibus bill, the latest salvo in Doug Ford’s war on bikes is more than a vendetta—it’s a gift to corporate lobbyists.”

The Ford government introduced their speed camera ban legislation today as part of an omnibus bill called "Building a More Competitive Economy Act"! WTF do speed cameras have to do with the economy? #shame #BikeTO #WalkTO #TOpoli #ONpoli #VisionZero news.ontario.ca/en/release/1...

If you don’t frequently see families with kids traveling to destinations by bike, your bike network isn’t safe enough (&/or your zoning forces sprawl & car dependency).

As US road deaths rise, particularly for VRUs, IIHS adopts new #30x30 policy. Goal is to reduce deaths 30% by 2030 using #VisionZero strategies incl. lower speeds, better road design and enforcement. www.iihs.org/news/detail/as-vision-zero-hopes-fade-a-5-year-goal-can-help-us-reset

Toronto’s Cycling and Pedestrian Projects Team continues to hit it out of the park. Out for a ride today and here’s just some of the new cycling facilities that I came across. New concrete planters and permanent curbs on Harbord Street. /1

I think it's always interesting to reframe stats to the cost of NOT doing the thing.

A few months ago, a friend visited me in Utrecht. As we biked around to do daily errands, she kept saying, "This is like a dream. This is like a dream." I do believe all cities the world over to soon come to their senses, limit car movement, and build a dream of safe, abundant streets for people.

How to design safer intersections: ​1. Near-sided signals. Placed before the bike/ped crossing, they prevent drivers from creeping into the path. ​2. Pavement differentiation. High-contrast, colored crossings (like this red asphalt) clearly establish priority and command driver attention.

"We feel very strongly that automated enforcement is a critical piece of speed management. It's a critical piece of Vision Zero," says Transportation GM Gray. She's concerned that removing the cameras will reduce the progress the city has made reducing road injuries and deaths.

Coyote obeying traffic signals on St. Clair in TO this morning. ☀️

What’s funny is how winter cycling is still a big novelty for lots of people. They’re happy to walk, ski, skate, sled, or snowshoe in the winter. But biking in anything below 15°C? Impossible! Crazy! Fortunately, attitudes have changed a lot in central Montreal. It’s fairly normal now.

Without due process, we are whatever they accuse us of being

Love a walk home with my kid where an aggressive driver causes him to ask "what should I do if you get crushed by a car?"

Yes some drivers are irresponsible, but some roads are confusing or have outdated design. If roads are self-explanatory w approp. speed limits & separate non-drivers from drivers, for ex., we run less risk of harming each other or ourselves. ALSO makes travel more reliable & simpler 4 everyone. 4/4

First day of #WeekWithoutDriving 2025, are you ready? disabilityrightswa.org/how-would-yo...

Fascinating study. Note that this is 1 in 10 adults. Factor in children and the percentage of non-driving Americans is much higher. Cities and towns need to account for their mobility needs too.

I live in inner Portland. I ride a bike across downtown several days a week. It's a beautiful, peaceful place that the federal government is invading. Not sure who's going to protect us from the mad king, but we'd appreciate any and all help. This is definitely an upside-down flag moment.

#topoli New from me on @spacing: It’s not about the traffic cameras. The city could make straightforward safety improvements to the west side of Parkside. Why doesn’t it? spacing.ca/toronto/2025...
