The 103 Ave detour due to LRT construction will have protected bike lanes. I don’t know if they’ll be permanent but it’d be a pity to rip these up. #yegbike

“The city has done a great job maximizing the space by building the bike lanes. In Westmount where I live, we also have numerous bike lanes and once they were built, most of the residents got used to them and the bike traffic increased considerably.” 👏👏 YES!

Only 14% of people rank infill as a top 3 issue, ranking below garbage collection.

While infill may not be a top issue, it helps solve the actual top issues.

Urbanist nerds will likely enjoy this one: What's the latest trend in downtown housing development in Edmonton? Downsizing. And seeing the future park as the major catalyst and amenity that will attract new residents.

So many people came to Coffee Outside today 💚 Dr. Darren Markland touched so many lives including those at Paths for People, where he also served as a past board member. He was an influential and inspiring public health and active transportation advocate who believed in community and connection.
