It's the time of year where you can swim through the underpass at Bank/Riverside. #ottawa #cycling

Introducing bike lanes is about creating transportation choice. When you give people safe choices, they can choose a bike for some trips, reducing congestion and reducing conflict between users. Leaders don’t need more evidence, we need to speak better to the public feeling of scarcity.

The modern conservative playbook. There is no need for the stated reasons to have any relationship with reality. The tariffs aren't about fentanyl and removing the bike lanes isn't about congestion. www.thestar.com/news/gta/for...

Canada needs dedicated passenger rail. “Tardiness is nothing new at Via Rail, but late arrivals are reaching historic levels in a key corridor since passenger trains have been forced to slow down at hundreds of rail crossings operated by CN Rail.” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Shocking, who would have thought that this would be a possible consequence of forcing cyclists and multi-tonne vehicles in the same lane? Never saw this coming at all /s #ontario #cycling

@ottawacity.ottawa.ca is launching a consultation on the redesign of Riverdale Avenue in Old Ottawa South. Happy to see that two of the three proposed designs included separated cycle tracks. I frequently used Riverdale to cycle when I lived in OOS, and now use it to bypass Bank and go to the canal.

#ottbike A thread about bike projects funded in budget 2025: To start off, One of my favourite projects, O'Connor Phase 2 is finally going ahead. This will connect the existing bikeway to Wellington St, from its current end point of Laurier.
