It’s March Break for public schools in Calgary. Want to know who’s away?
Just look for the cars parked in street that today (Fri) still have snow on them from Wed and Thu snow fall. 🤷♂️

Another sad day for people who’d like to safely walk in Calgary… 😔
A child with a broken leg and an adult with life altering injuries.

A friend shared this photo👇
Someone is driving around Calgary with saw blades on their hood. 🤦♂️

Driver’s pledge: I won’t use my phone while driving b/c I could kill somebody
Pedestrian pledge: I’ll stay focused in crosswalks b/c we know drivers won’t follow their pledge.
#Cargary
This is nuts! People driving over a grass boulevard (snow covered) to avoid following a do not enter sign.

Brookman’s Opinion piece TL;DR
1. It’s too hard to report a mystery vehicle parked in front of my house, &
2. Personally didn’t see a single snow plow this week
…it’s the 332nd day of the year in Cargary

Yup #cargary
We do have a wonderful pathway system with over 1000kms of car free pathways but very few on street lanes.
Hey, Dick.
The one true sacred cow in this city that can never be questioned isn't bike lanes, Dick.
That cow is car culture. #Cargary #yycbike calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...
Especially true in #Cargary
Welcome to Calgary, where out of efficiency, newspapers write daily summary articles covering the various collisions drivers have caused. 😳

Why do Calgary bus shelters on a 60km/h road not have bollards?
Ask your #yyccc councillor.

Just another day of death, life altering injuries and destruction on the streets of Calgary.
When will City Council take some real action?

Left “before” panel shows a busy street full of activity. Right “after” panel shows the street after it’s been widened with fast moving cars and the businesses have all left. Two panel comic by Jean Wei
What happened to 16 Ave N in Calgary between 1950 and today can summed up in a two panel before/after comic.

The new host of “This is Calgary” is also the Traffic Reporter for the Homestretch on CBC. 🤔
I wonder if #Motonormativity has blinded her of the problem cars have on making any place desirable?

A bike swap event might not happen because not enough parking.
This is peak #Cargary thinking. A bike event might not happen this year because there isn’t enough car parking.🤔
Let’s hope the parking minimum is dropped so the event can happen. 🚲😀👍

The whole Cancer Building Site thought only of cars. It would have been such an awesome opportunity to incorporate comfort into the transit stops but no they left that option incredibly hostile. #cargary
New pedestrian/bike bridge over 16th Ave NW at the new Cancer Center.
Person and their cargobike in a tiny elevator.
I tried out the new bridge last night that crosses 16th Ave NW and ends in steep stairs or a small elevator instead of a down ramp. My Skidloader just fit - what a waste of infrastructure. Plenty of room for parking cars though #cargary #yycbike
Marketing message by City of Calgary to not park illegally.
Cute gentle-persuasion messaging to not illegally park in a neighbourhood or is this advancing the notion of on-street parking past the “ownership” mindset to a new level where you are married to the spot in front of your house?🤔

Proposed parking garage in Calgary Central Station is beside existing parking garage.
It seems strange, in 2024, to propose a new parking garage across the street from another parking garage.

A Calgary man was struck in a marked crosswalk by a driver in her 80s.
He was then struck a second time by a driver in her 70s.
He was declared dead on the scene.
Why do we allow this to happen?

Cargary: Such a horrible tragedy that Johnny Gaudreau and his brother were killed when a person drove into them while biking. How can we prevented this!
Also Cargary: Protected bike lanes are a stupid waste of money.
The cognitive dissonance is remarkable.🤦♂️

Calgary’s Field House facility is only at the preliminary drawing phase but is moving to the next phase soon.
For comparison let’s look at similar view of Zuiderpark.
Something stands out in how the land is being planning to be used…
Can you spot it?

This is why bump outs or TC curbs are needed at all crosswalks.
People driving just don’t respect the importance of sight lines for people trying to cross the street safely.
#Cargary #BumpOuts
This is why bump outs or TC curbs are needed.
No parking sign posted to allow people crossing the street can see and be seen… but Crosstrek driver says no thank you I’m parking here.🤦♂️
