The global phenomenon of “bikelash” has become one of the biggest barriers to implementing interventions that make our streets more liveable, accessible and sustainable. So how do we best manage it as advocates for change? Here are eight strategies we recently presented at the Velo-city Conference.🧵

Big news for Ottawa. And in my opinion, this big step forward for a Senators arena downtown is also a major step backward for Lansdowne 2.0. I'm already on the record on that one: it was always hard to make sense of the economics. Now? Even more so. 1/ www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/artic...

I agree Sean. We want no part of that quagmire at Lansdowne. That's a black hole and everyone knows it but the Mayor.

It’s #OttCity policy to build sidewalks in #Ottawa neighbourhoods where they’re missing. This is good policy: it improves accessibility. It’s also supported by extensive public consultation. So why is the City backtracking in Manor Park? #OttWalk #OttRoll www.ecologyottawa.ca/manor_park_s...

Another reminder that “15-Minute Cities” isn’t a new idea. It’s skilled packaging of an idea that’s been around for a LONG time. It’s been called “city of short distances.” I used to call it “The Power of Nearness.” MANY names. More things close by. Less car dependency. More CHOICE. Common sense.
