Dear Edmonton:
For over a decade, we've been asking for safe lanes so that people of all ages, all genders, all colours, could chose to use their bicycle to get around the city, in all seasons:

Hey @geodarcy.bsky.social, this is still the best [?only?] #winterbiking map for #Yeg.
Any chance of an update? And could there be a way to live update it for conditions (bare / icy / plowed / snow < 2cm / snow > 2cm / fat bikes only ...)??

It's World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims #WDoR2024, so here's a reminder that the American approach toward road safety has failed.
"Even after adjusting for distance driven, US fatality rates remain 2x the rich-world average."

Remember, when it comes to the actual likelihood that a vehicle crash will occur at all, AND whether the consequences of a crash are serious, or even deadly, or not, speed is ALWAYS a factor. Including when the legal speed limits are currently too high. #SpeedKills #VisionZero
