YouTube video by Shifter Who wins the argument about bike lanes when evidence is required? #bike #bikecommute

Did you ever wonder what might happen if the debate over bike lanes came down to which side has better evidence? Well, in this case, it did.

Parking Upgrades Promote Active Transportation An Example of What Can be Achieved with a Limited Budget, as experienced by one of our members. At a downtown office building, nearly forty years old, the building owner was planning to renovate th…

Which event?

A quick search indicates that no city in the world ties X% mode share to X% transportation budget. Would be good to design a stable funding mechanism to actually reach active transportation goals. I like the idea of allocating motor vehicle revenue to cycling (parking fees, speeding fines, etc…).

Our hearts are heavy with the tragic news of the loss of a beloved cyclist at the intersection of 26th Avenue and 32nd Street SW yesterday. To the family and friends of the victim, we extend our deepest condolences during this unimaginably difficult time.

Hey #yycbike! Here is the location for tomorrow‘s #coffeeoutsideyyc meeting point. Every Friday is a new location in & around the DT core. Stay tuned! 😃👍🏻

YouTube video by Working Dog Productions How to Fix Traffic Congestion In Australia | Utopia

IMPORTANT: If you can watch only ONE video about why more & wider roads won’t solve traffic congestion no matter how many billions you spend, watch THIS one. Then share it with EVERYONE.

Jevons Paradox isn’t a rock band.

Via Australia’s great show “Utopia” on ABC TV. youtube.com/watch?v=xtO_...

Given the drop in vehicle volumes and the major investment in bringing more residents into the downtown core, why has there been no public discussion to switch all the one-ways into 2-way roads?

Seems like a giant miss in making the downtown an actual community people might want to move to. #yyccc

Still going #yycbike

Happy Canada Day! A great way to enjoy some of that glory and freedom is from the seat of your bike. #yycbike

How do we feel about this response #yegbike?

Do you think the GOA's action reflect this statement? What could the Province do to make cycling safer or more accessible for you?

The stairs are for the pedestrian detour. Biking detour uses path/road on Sifton Blvd & 14A St.

What's Up With That: Building Bigger Roads Actually Makes Traffic Worse The concept is called induced demand, which is economist-speak for when increasing the supply of something (like roads) makes people want that thing even more. Though some traffic engineers made note ...

@ashleysalvador.bsky.social and Minister Dresden will be on CBC's Alberta at Noon tomorrow to discuss the 132 ave project.

Please consider sharing your thoughts by sending an email to albertaatnoon@cbc.ca or calling 1-866-468-4422

#yegbike

The particularly problematic thing is that no meaningful capacity is being removed on 132 ave. It is massively over-built and there are high capacity roads just north and south of it.

Adding bike lanes ADDS capacity to the overall network, and bike lanes consistently improve traffic flow.

We took a tour of 132nd Ave from Fort Road to 127th street to check out the neighbourhood renewal underway. When you see the before & after of the bike paths going in, it's obvious how it makes for a healthier, happier, and safer community. #yegbike #yycbike #yeg
