I’m here to talk shop about bike lanes, street design, and urban mobility in Montreal and beyond.
After a record 74 cm snow dump, #wintercycling is on hold for a few days. Sidewalks, bike lanes, and local streets are buried in so much snow that plowing is ineffective or simply impossible.

While snow removal operations progress slowly, we’ve been getting around on x-country skis instead.

A shared street is essentially a pedestrian street that cars are allowed to use. The street must be designed to make motorists feel like they are invading the pedestrian realm. Any visual distinction between roadway and sidewalk must be avoided.

First significant snowfall in Montreal. Maintenance operations on the cycling network completed overnight. Smooth sailing for people heading to work and school on their bikes this morning. #véloMTL

Surprise!

The Chateaubriand bidirectional has been extended north of Bélanger.
