Supporting access for people who want to ride bikes and have safe streets

Do you support bike share? Consider delegating tomorrow at the PWIC meeting. Email committee coordinator before 8:30am tomorrow to delegate.

The more people bike the less congested our roads.

Le vélopartage à Ottawa, c’est maintenant!

Notre réseau de transport en commun est en crise. Le vélopartage peut changer la donne! Le quart des déplacements fait moins de 2 km — une distance qu’on parcourt facilement à vélo. Le vélopartage est abordable, accessible et efficace.

Signez notre pétition avec Écologie Ottawa.

Our transit system is in crisis and our roads are congested. Bike share can help! A quarter of trips in Ottawa are under 2 km—well within bikeable range. Bike share is affordable, accessible, and efficient.

If our elected officials cared about the safety of people outside of cars, starting with our kids, we wouldn’t need crossing guards. Our streets would be safe regardless of human error.

But here we are. A crossing guard lost their life on duty. We should all be outraged. 1/3

What better thing to do on a Sunday afternoon than ride in a snow storm, do some board media training and ride home on snowy roads. ❄️

Always good to learn how to better communicate and get our point across. 🎤
