Hi ppl. VZC founder Graham Larkin here. Yes, I've been off Twitter, which was becoming enervating even before EM took over. Plus I moved to Cali 🇺🇸. Popping in to say how much I ❤️following NotJustBikes (another 🇨🇦 expat & extwit) on YouTube. Peace, G youtube.com/watch?v=ymcBC7…

"... a difficult lesson learned by a number of 🇺🇲 [& now 🇨🇦] cities that have simply run out of money to pay for crucial infrastructure repairs." #SuburbsDontPay Tremendous story from @don_pittis @CBCNews. ✊ www-cbc-ca.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.cbc.ca… @notjustbikes @StrongTowns

Happy to see that our @cityofguelph has started implementing leading Pedestrian Interval intersection signals. However we need to ramp up implementation of this low cost but highly effective pedestrian safety measure @VisionZeroCA . @lirazfridman1 @JennieJuste @ParticipACTION

I’ve seen a lot of victim-blaming by police and media when drivers kill pedestrians. A LOT. But I don’t think I’ve ever read ANYTHING quite this stupid, infuriating and irresponsible. From Calgary police and media.

"Rather than telling [motorists] to be extra careful when driving their (increasingly large) vehicle, the Service de police de la ville de Montréal has [targeted] the most vulnerable." Not that finger-wagging matters. We need to DESIGN OUT THE CONFLICT! oicanadian.com/straight-to-th…

Almost every major thoroughfare I came across in Montreal had a separated two-way bike track, most with a curb separator, some with flex posts. I saw no painted-line only bike lanes. Also, I saw no sidewalks closed for construction that didn’t include a bypass.
Hello candidates for city councils everywhere. Did you know that advocating for banning drivers from turning right on red lights will save lives, lots of lives? #yyj viewpointvancouver.ca/2022/08/23/ret…
♥️#DutchDifference 🇳🇱
The core of our argument is that 'active travel' is generally framed & treated too narrowly - as just walking and cycling. There are a whole range of other modes that could be brought into the scope of active travel and we suggest there are significant benefits to doing so 🧵2/
#HamOnt Main St "lane reduction is part of the beginning stages to convert the road from a one-way into a two-way street, which was approved by city council in May." Latter would be real progress, for safety & liveability. No time to waste! cbc.ca/news/canada/ha… #visionzero

Happy to see that our @cityofguelph has started implementing leading Pedestrian Interval intersection signals. However we need to ramp up implementation of this low cost but highly effective pedestrian safety measure @VisionZeroCA . @lirazfridman1 @JennieJuste @ParticipACTION
Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs) are a true silver bullet of vision zero: they are easy, cheap, and effective. And Toronto is rolling them out at an incredible pace. Has your city implemented them?
Truly awesome to see these shirts out in the world! Thanks Everyone!
I’ve seen a lot of victim-blaming by police and media when drivers kill pedestrians. A LOT. But I don’t think I’ve ever read ANYTHING quite this stupid, infuriating and irresponsible. From Calgary police and media.
A Dodge Ram driver smashed into a bus shelter while speeding killing someone - and the police are perplexed as to why the victim was in the bus shelter because "he does have a vehicle" cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
The second thing I'll do @PremierWho is follow the advice of @safespeedswpg and amend the highway traffic act so municipalities can set a safe default speed limit of 30kmh so my kids and students can safely actively commute to school! #VisionZero #activetravel @VisionZeroCA
The PSR justifies widening the Carson portion of the 405 due to "degraded LOS [Level of Service - a discredited car-centric metric]" and "geometric deficiencies" contributing to congestion.

This pedestrian and cyclist tunnel was built underneath a roundabout in Amersfoort. For social safety, the tunnel offers optimal lighting and daylight. Its walls recede slightly, creating a more spacious and pleasant experience. WATCH from @BicycleDutch: youtu.be/jky48n9gzTY
The core of our argument is that 'active travel' is generally framed & treated too narrowly - as just walking and cycling. There are a whole range of other modes that could be brought into the scope of active travel and we suggest there are significant benefits to doing so 🧵2/
Well-designed truck side guards also prevents serious injury or death for people who are walking and rolling. We need action from industry and all levels of government to take immediate action to implement these simple, low cost, ready & proven solutions.
@Transport_gc @NRC_CNRC @MaryandAnnaLeah @lloydalter A+ history of truck #sideguard / #underride protection via Eric Hein. (HT @durso_lois) "If side underride guards were mandated when @USDOT first considered them in 1969, Riley and thousands of others would be alive."

Dismount and do what? @311Toronto @JohnTory @BradMBradford @VisionZeroCA how is this acceptable? Woodbine Ave northbound from Gerrard. @metromorning can you include in your traffic reports and lane closures? @TheBikingLawyer
KUDOS @CityofTacoma for lowering speed limits to 20 mph on residential streets, and 25 mph on arterial streets, in four of the city’s Neighborhood Business Districts. planetizen.com/news/2022/08/1… #Tacoma #visionzero #speedlimit #speedkills
Thankful for @morrisseyhouse - on the protected bike lanes in #ldnont - for hosting 12 of us on the patio tonight. We are always happy to eat here and so happy to be able to bike 8 kids here safely @CityofLdnOnt @VisionZeroCA
When the bike lane detour due to construction is better protected than the permanent bike lane that was there before 😭 (PS: Ty @CarlinaRivera for passing a city law that made bike lane detours required when construction blocks the existing protected bike lane)
@lavingiasa @CarlinaRivera Toronot could learn a few things! @VisionZeroCA @JohnTory @CycleToronto
