Bus emission concern is the absolute biggest waste of time

Buying a couple of thousand empty condos does nothing to add to supply. We need the Feds to ramp up direct investment in new supply of non-market housing. Let the market build the market stuff, let the Cities incentivize rental and family-friendly builds, otherwise stay out of the market's way... 7/

A few comments to expand on my comments in this story because there are two conflated & overlapping policy stories here (Thanks @jmcelroy.bsky.social for your solid reporting and for pointing that out!) 🧵 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Self proclaimed "transit advocate" councilor @sarahkirbyyung.bsky.social questioning staff on why Vancouver needs bus lanes if they only save each commuter a few minutes per trip... Yikes 😬 youtu.be/WYyydasP9oE?...

FICTION: @petermeiszner.bsky.social claimed the Vision Zero plan would lower the speed on "streets like Boundary Rd, Clark, Knight St." FACT: The report clearly references streets with "high pedestrian activity" and "busy shopping streets." Did Peter even read the report before gutting it?

Damn, I’m proud of #NewWest for leading the country on protecting vulnerable renter. We made the bold choice to protect residents; we defended it in court; we forced change to Provincial regulation; now cities across Canada (see Ottawa here) are learning from our example and doing the same! 🎉

ABC isn't on here but they're over on the other site spreading misinformation about the VZ Action Plan, and also making it abundantly clear that they are choosing driver speed over human life. (1/3)

Bus2car is crazy 😭👹

Can you outrun the 95 “Rapid” bus? On June 12 at 4:45pm, we are racing the bus from the Legislature to City Hall to highlight how Douglas St congestion slows transit to a crawl. Sign up to run, or be a cheerleader: actionnetwork.org/forms/volunt... #yyj #racethebus

In BC, there is an initiative called “Renovate the Public Hearing” by SFU Centre for Dialogue which is piloting changes to land use public hearing and it is a very exciting and interesting initiative. I hope they expand their great work to capital project “study/consultation” 👀

Pedestrian Observations: How Much Community Outreach Does the Urban Institute Think Italy and Turkey Do? pedestrianobservations.com/2026/04/20/h...

"Public meetings frequently attract only a narrow group of participants—typically residents who have the time, resources, and political motivation to attend—rather than reflecting the full community affected by transportation projects."

Transit construction costs in the US keep rising, and projects keep taking longer and longer to build. One possible explanation? Ineffective, inefficient community engagement processes, we argue @urbaninstitute.bsky.social ⏬

Ultimately, cities like Vienna see more people choosing transit over driving because of deliberate choices to prioritize the sustainable movement of people, not vehicles. Vancouver has the same tools available, should it choose to act on its claim of being “the world’s greenest city.”

While Vancouver drags its feet on improving four measly bus routes, a true world-class city, Vienna, is looking to speed up 29 tram lines and 135 bus routes, basically its entire surface transit network. The city will invest 2 million Euros annually until 2030 on transit acceleration measures.
