  1. It will be impossible for Ontario to implement innovative (in terms of North American standards) and effective #PublicTransit as long as Ford remains in office. Ripping out #BikeLanes so we can add more cars means he would never replace vehicle lanes with a Tram or LRT network.

    And recently they have drastically reduced Go Train schedules on important transit corridors, forcing more people into cars on highways.

  6. Good Morning #Canada
    Toronto's Line 5, referred to as the Eglinton Crosstown, has been open for over 6 months and the general consensus locally is that it's pretty good. This excellent video provides a review of the LRT, including the supporting network, benefits, negatives, and Toronto's overall design philosophy for #PublicTransit. It rightly points out Canada is generally bad at design and is still in love with cars.

    "The Eglinton Crosstown LRT recently opened in #Toronto ... it stretches across the middle of the city, it intersects with several other rapid transit lines, the trains are comfortable, and the service is frequent. What's not to like?"

  12. What is it with people on the train today going “Oh, the doors closing warning is sounding - I’ll try and board the train, holding everyone up unnecessarily.”

  14. I loved painting these lil guys outside Maida Vale station, one of my favourite stations in London. Maybe they’ll go to the bakery for a coffee and cake, or maybe some lovely fruit from the greengrocers for a picnic in the park. Whatever they get up to on their adventure, I’m sure it will be a lovely day.

  15. I think the big takeaways from this #NYTimes article (nyti.ms/3V9Eqsm) are:

    1. Driving less will drive down your #climateemissions & is a great way to take #climateaction
    2. Communities need to invest in #publictransit powered by #cleanenergy.
    3. Individual action is important but #urbanplanning, #climatelegislation, and building #resilience in communities should be our priority.
