If people are still being killed just trying to get around, TSC should be meeting until the fatalities are reduced to zero, which we know is achievable.

At the invitation of Mi’kmaw land defenders and water protectors, we’ve planned a rally stand up together, shoulder to shoulder, to say a mighty Nova Scotia NO to Houston’s extraction agenda.

TODAY AT NOON!

Rachel please have Gareth on for a trains episode!

Highlights For marginalised street users mode separation is the key to human-scale movement. Streets conducive to walking and cycling have functional, safe and accessible design. Professionals must approach street design, regulation and user behaviour holistically. Combinations of influencing factors persuade people to either use or avoid a street. There are no easy fixes to the public realm that will work for all non-drivers.

"The single most important behaviour, design or regulation for creating streets conducive to walking and cycling, was physical separation between the modes"

We've got a new study out, learning from a broad mixture of street users, planners and designers

Oh shit, that’s a good one

Sorry, it’s wasn’t meant as a subtweet, I was riding a wave of several similar comments and felt inspired. Your point is a good one!

Bollards.

Haligonians, you should watch Siege.

Maybe this will reach car-brained decision-makers.

‘Its not getting any better’: Concern over rising pedestrian-vehicle collisions in Halifax There have been 25 vehicle-pedestrian collisions in the Halifax area so far this year.

Emergency officials have responded to TWENTY FIVE different incidents of people being struck by a driver while crossing one of Halifax’s many unsafe streets less than 3 months in to 2025. Four of those people have tragically had their lives cut short. All of these incidents were preventable.

Thanks!

FDR once bragged to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that the richest people in the nation hated him and “I welcome their hatred.”

Just weeks later, he was re-elected with 61% of the vote in a 523-8 blowout in the Electoral College.

Voters *like* politicians who make the right enemies.

I can’t emphasize enough how much accessibility benefits everyone. Ramps, elevators, ventilated air, automatic doors. You caring about accessibility is literally caring about your future. You will become disabled unless you die young. Investing in the disability community is investing in yourself.

Halifax Water better be looking into this
