#BikeHfx Does HRM release stats on vehicle/bike collisions that are disaggregated from other vehicle/micromobility collisions? The annual road safety reports seem only to provide the stats for all vehicle/micromobility collisions lumped together.

#BikeHfx consistently warms my heart. What a great community! ❤️
Ode to Scritchy & the #PylonWars, especially for you @katynotie.bsky.social #BikeHFX #ZeroVisionHFX
We went to check out Scritchy the Raccone and it looks like someone fixed them up with some screws!

False dawn, Scritchy was headless & armless again this morning #BikeHFX
I love this for Halifax… except for the ethical problem of incentivizing employees to use an unsafe, incomplete bike network. #BikeHfx

Scritchy, the raccone, has been vandalised. I shouldn't be so surprised. The #PylonWars are shining a stark headlight on the people we share the roads with, who have no compunction in breaking the law to save a few minutes. This is #ZeroVisionHFX #CarBrain that #BikeHFX & people walking experience

So they highlighted in today’s bicycle race in Belgium the “golden Cone”. The Racone might need an upgrade! #bikehfx

I have to make a correction to this post. The raccone is named Scritchy, not Parker, according to the little note on its back! #PylonWars #BikeHFX

Yet another image of the Allen-Oak diverter with the bollards removed, despite the exceptionally cute raccoon explaining that this really is a bikes only piece of infrastructure. Can't stop those drivers going wherever they like, no matter what the signs or the law say. It's an early morning image with the asphalt glowing in the street light, houses and trees in the background.
Not so effective at stopping the pylon/bollard removal squad but at least Parker is still in place this morning #BikeHFX
The new enforcement officer at the Harvard–Allan diagonal diverter seems to be effective 🦝 #BikeHfx
A comment on a post about booze in convenience stores on the subreddit r/NovaScotia reads: “Recent convert to cycling and now I'm complaining the lanes are incomplete! Lol three weeks ago I was cursing them!”
Converting one Nova Scotian at a time #BikeHFX #TeamMoreBikeLanes
Parker made it through the day - a #BikeHFX miracle!

Deploy the raccoon!
A new front in #PylonWars has opened up & it is darn cute.
A good likeness to our bike mayor too @seebo429.bsky.social

It's my peanut-shaped roundabout dream!
Still possible if we don't cater to large truck turn radius??
