But in this case it’s confusing because bus lanes would bring more people to Lansdowne events.

The current definition of major event at Lansdowne for bus lanes is so narrow that it’ll mostly just be for football games.

It makes no sense to me. Bus lanes would help Lansdowne!

Love to see it!

(The highest priority was keeping taxes low before the election…)

The 7 is a top 3 ridership route. When I walked by Bank and Laurier on Tuesday around 4:30 there were over 20 people waiting at the stop.

This is how the transit death spiral gets worse.

Part of the issue is the cancellations are generally at peak times, and generally comes from high freq routes, so it's very noticeable people and severely hurts ridership (and fare revenue).

Did the city meet its provincial requirement to have an approved asset management and funding plan by July 1, 2025?

If not, did it face any consequences from the province? and why did it not meet these requirements despite ample time to plan?

They were also just new enough that none of their major maintenance expenses had piled up yet.

They certainly didn't have enough density to adequately maintain their services long term.

Thank you for continually representing us well

And here’s the kicker: Tierney’s vote, the mayor’s vote, and all the like-minded councillors always have the numbers. They win. Every time.
So if their approach is always the one implemented… how are things not improving, Tim? 17/

Generally sight lines are way better with protected intersections, as the pedestrian or cyclist is ahead of the car. The intersections are typically narrower so cars have to slow more as well.

That area has a lot of slip lanes, which are awful for safety, so I’d call it an improvement.

Do you mean intersections like this? beyondtheautomobile.com/2021/12/06/t...

If so, I think they are very good and I've been impressed by how frequently Ottawa is building them.

If you mean slip lines, then I think they're terrible and not safe at all

Thanks for sharing, will have to go through the list
