Voilà un outil qui permet de plonger dans les données de collisions et de blessures.
Une bûche dans le poêle qui montre que le danger n’est pas SUR le réseau cyclable.
Bravo à @coledev.bsky.social pour ce travail!
J'ai aussi effectué mes propres analyses, que je rends publique sur une site ArcGIS : experience.arcgis.com/experience/5...
Justement, aucune des axes qui vont être analysé sont dans le top 20 des axes avec le plus de décès, blessures ou d'accidents. Aussi, où est l'avenue du Parc ? Right...
L’approche de l’administration en place: pas assez de déblaiement et trop de chargement.
Ça coûte plus cher, pour des résultats plus mauvais. Et pourtant, l’administration semble vouloir redoubler d’ardeur dans cette direction
On s'étonne que les pistes soient déneigées avant les trottoirs, mais jamais que la route le soit avant les voies actives. On cite les urgences, en ignorant le danger pour ceux forcés d'aller dans la voie véhiculaire car la piste cyclable et trottoir sont enneigées. REV Berri, proche de Crémazie.
How it started -> how it's going
Number of passages on weekdays on Montréal's STM lines 55 and 80+535/435/480 in 2010, 2013 (network 10 minutes max) and 2025.
It's brutal.
Now I know why I've stopped riding bus 80 and why I take the 55 much less...
The next time someone says, "Oh, I'm just going 10 miles per hour over the speed limit, what's the big deal?" you should show them this
Rencontre concernant la piste cyclable sur Atateken, lundi prochain à 18h30 à la salle du conseil de Ville-Marie. Cette piste devrait servir de détour de la piste Berri durant environ 2 ans. Je vous invite à assister si vous avez des opinions sur cette piste!
Est-ce-qu’on peut faire des requêtes pour plaindre ?
Tactical wayfinding as activism, Singapore edition
One of my teachers from high school took part in this documentary about this problem in Québec, it is worth a watch : www.telequebec.tv/programmatio...
I believe that the issue is the high school system versus CEGEP. In fact, about 70% of students from private high schools go to university, versus 10 % from public high schools. The division starts at 6th grade, not when a student starts CEGEP. This is what needs to be fixed.
To avoid this catch 22, the bus lane shortly ends before the intersection, so that the bus can cross straight at the same time as other traffic.
Since a bus signal is obligatory. The standards do not allow a bus to go straight at the same time as other general traffic to go straight, if the bus lane is situated in the extreme right. Therefore this would have severely limit the time that buses can cross. (2)
So I looked into it, and I was a little wrong. It’s only allowed if the bus basically has its own phase. A bus traffic signal are mandatory if the bus lane continues until the intersection. (1)
I know, it’s really sad. We really design to let car drivers be reckless, while all other users must use caution. The people at the MTMD are still very car centric.
Yes, but this is also not allowed, even with such a cycle, because sometimes users (pedestrians, vehicle operators), do not follow the signs.
It’s because the standards do not allow this if there is a sidewalk because then pedestrians won’t be visible from right turning vehicles if the reserved lane continues until the stop line.
Laval has one, where there is no sidewalk.
I can confirm that the MTMD does not allow this, because if the bus lane continues all the way into the intersection, it would block visibility of the crosswalk and pedestrians crossing would not be visible if a vehicle turns right.
It is only legal, if there is no crosswalk. Laval has one here :
Bicycle can take full lane.

Félicitations à @villedemontreal.montreal.ca pour cette mesure inclusive : à certaines intersections avec feux sonores, un appui prolongé sur le bouton piéton déclenche une phase protégée ou prolonge le temps de traverse.👏👣 #accessibilité #visionzero
Montréal est maintenant la 1ère ville en Amérique du Nord à avoir reçu le label "Bike City" de l'UCI! Ca veut dire qu'on accueille des événements cyclistes d'envergure, tout en développant le réseau cyclable du quotidien. Fierté!

street level billboard advertisement for a petition titled "are you tired of waiting for packed transit?", pointing to a petition. it is sponsored by translink, the mayors council, and access for everyone
it's cool to see translink, the mayors' council and access for everyone doing some self-advocacy to secure more frequent transit through ops funding.
in toronto, this doesn't happen. while some of our board cares about fixing funding, our ceo recently boasted about transit being packed 🙄
It's amazing how TTC can take down activists' signs showing better wayfinding in hours when their own outdated signs stay posted for months, even years. www.thestar.com/news/gta/way... @ttcriders.bsky.social
