Researchers at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health studied over 1000 streets on a quest to save lives. They reported something that any psychologist could tell you: design influences behavior.

City of Toronto 🇨🇦 WHAT ARE WE DOING? Mayor Olivia Chow 🇨🇦 Chief Myron Demkiw What's the number that we need to hit? How many people, how many vulnerable road users do you need to be hurt or killed to honestly say enough is enough? Park Somewhere Else Sysco Canada Sysco Cc: @311toronto #biketo

We can't afford not to invest in active transportation! We could save up $28 billion on healthcare costs and prevent countless deaths! Let's invest more and faster. "Over 1,000 km and 60 hours of cycling per capita per year; preventing 6,500 deaths and €19B in healthcare."

Our letter to Mayor Olivia Chow 🇨🇦 demanding urgent action to address ongoing failures to combat blocked bike lanes & dangerous unchecked construction that contributed to the death of another person on a bike last week & injuries to many others #bikeTO thebikinglawyer.ca/post/blocked-b…

I’ve got to ask Mayor Olivia Chow 🇨🇦 & Chief Myron Demkiw what’s the number you’re looking for? How many people need to be hurt or killed before we outlaw parking in bike lanes? @311toronto can you have this dump truck removed? NW corner of Bloor & Sherborne Cc: The Biking Lawyer (Dave Shellnutt)

Kitchener bike network coming together... Here is the new setup on Duke St past Victoria.

Portland has just removed this type of traffic calming because they were also being hit, which is exactly the wrong response. Every damaged traffic calming device should be replaced by at least 2

Road safety, not culture wars. That is what #Ontario needs. #StopTheWarOnTheTruth #VisionZero

Here’s one in the category of colossally awful public policy ideas — The Ford Provincial Government in Ontario is apparently considering banning municipalities from building new bike-lanes where car-lanes would be cut. Where they would save lives, & more. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

1 year ago today I started a journey by bike to talk about road safety in communities across Ontario. During my #SafetyRide, I met dozens of survivors, and families of victims, of traffic incidents. Doug Ford promised them justice. He's giving us culture wars. #onpoli

Cars per day: 401: 400,000 Gardiner: 140,000 DVP: 130,000 427: 300,000 Total on all major highways: 970,000 Rides per day: GO train system: 200,000 TTC: 2,500,000 Households with no access to car: 28% Yet, nearly all public space is given to cars.

There are over 150 vehicle collisions in Toronto EVERY DAY. Bikes don’t block traffic. Cars block traffic.

We take very seriously those (Doug Ford & Ontario Ministry of Transportation) that jeopardize our collective safety as a political tool. Impacting the safety of people on bike across the province to gin up support with your base is reprehensible. We all deserve so much better from our politicians.

Cities have to prioritize people in order to be vibrant and loved.

Thanks to the various trail users for dealing with the anti-Indigenous, white nationalist, and residential school denialist graffiti that someone has been writing along my corridor. No space for hate on my route.

Seamlessly linking key destinations from the Spirit Trail to Seabus terminal, North Vancouver’s Esplanade has been turned into a complete street. The wider sidewalks, protected bike lanes, and Dutch-style junctions help create a more safe and welcoming environment for all users.

It’s that time of year again. The time for… puppy spiders. #HalloweenIsComing

The e-cargo bike is from North Vancouver’s pilot lending program, which makes a variety of e-bikes available for residents to borrow at no cost from a branch of their local library. We were surprised to learn it was inspired by a chapter of our book ‘Building the Cycling City’!
