Exactly. The cause of congestion is too many vehicles for road capacity and it's infeasible to increase road capacity in a tight urban environment. The policy options are: 1. Reduce # of cars (congestion pricing) 2. Give ppl choice (transit/bike lanes) Everything else is noise.

#ThrowbackThursday We've got the tools, we have the talent, heck, every single day, NYC is showing us how it's done when it comes to creating a Congestion Pricing Plan here in Toronto. What we lack is the #PoliticalWill h/t Alex Mather schoolofcities.utoronto.ca/could-congesti…

Since 2010, TO development charges have increased 1000%. A 2-bedroom condo owes $80,690 in DCs alone, with more for parkland and community benefits. Where is this money going? Well, $3bn is sitting in the reserves, but About Here breaks down the rest. youtube.com/watch?v=ZEUR9b…

It would cost the Province ~$3B of those $232.5B to eliminate all Development charges, backfill municipal revenues, and unlock a major increase in homebuilding.

On the third anniversary of the Elizabeth Line 600 million journeys have been made average of 800,000 trips a day, travelled 21.5 million miles. Public transport for the win

The City of Toronto Parks Department sure gets great results from its maintenance practice of dragging massive trucks all over the parks.

I'm sorry to have had to miss this meeting on an EXCELLENT proposal for 64 new homes just steps from where I live. (Hearings on #Bill5 ran to midnight). If you live near Danforth and Dawes, you should be over the moon about this development, just like I am.

I will never get over the architectural quality of Swiss schools This is a 14 classroom school by CURA Architekten

Yesterday, Bike Share Toronto reached a record 36,000 trips! In addition the 14-day average is about 20% higher than this time last year. The popularity of the system is exploding, and our governments need to support a safe and connected cycling network.

The people like car-free streets.

all week I’ve been thinking about this caption

Buildings too tall, no setbacks, inadequate parking provision, overlooks neighbouring properties, retail generates excessive noise impacts, repetitive design features Planning application denied

Torontonians took 44,000 bike trips yesterday, when Bike Share Toronto was free. That’s potentially 44,000 people who didn’t use a car - helping to unclog our streets. That number could be much higher with solid bike infrastructure!
