Build it and they will come: Annual #ridership of #bikesharing programs in six big cities, including New York, Boston and Chicago, continues to grow after jumping 27% in 2022 from pre-pandemic levels. The trend’s biggest foe? Improper city #infrastructure.

This is almost five years into the #SouthWestInMotion five-year plan to scrap together a usable #bikeNetwork. I don't think we needed to convene a Stakeholder's Working Group to figure out that one or two of those 19 lanes could be just for people on bikes. TFW you have a designated Major City Bikeway in your #TransportationSystemsPlan / #ComprehensivePlan / #ClimateActionPlan, but don't actually care about anybody being able to bike in #Portland.

It sounds like the #Austin #mobility bond was wildly popular because they built a #BikeNetwork as a low-stress connected replacement for short trips on the car network. I can't imagine #Portland's #PBOT selling this to voters though, where we currently see the bureau only trying to prop up their #cars1stAlwaysOnly machine. Red asphalt was a good choice though, our green plastic is wasteful and can be hard to skate on anyway.

"Her current research focuses on what might seem like a simple question: At any point in Toronto, can you cycle to essential destinations – grocery stores, health care and schools – within 30 minutes, using only bike lanes and traffic-calmed roads?" @mbonsma

Still in awe that #Edmonton city council voted to spend C$100M over 4 years on a city-wide #bikenetwork.

Calgary bike lobby say: "Wow, drool, envy, you're so lucky🍀".

Drivists scream: "🙀$100M?? What about the homeless?? PS: more $ to cops!"

Active transportation cats say: "it's 180 times *less* than the $1.8*Billion* budgeted for cars, & 50% of what is actually needed. PS: poor people can't afford cars. The people living in tents depend on #bikes to get around the city🚴‍♂️⛺..."

More & more, active transportation is on municipal authority's radar in 🇨🇦.

I had a wonderful conversation this afternoon with City of Waterloo Mayor Dorothy McCabe. Her thoughts on active transportation, climate action, and community give me great hope. I’m excited about the possibilities for our city and region. #WaterlooRegion #Cycling #ActiveTransportation
