" Experience and research tells us that transit operates most effectively when planned and built in close connection to walking and cycling facilities."

As part of #WeekWithoutDriving, Central Ohio Transit Authority hosted a travel training for students and older adults!

"Most decision-makers are busy professionals who drive and seldom rely on non-auto travel or face the problems experienced by low-income non-drivers, a phenomena called elite bias. To overcome this, we must provide more than rational arguments ..."

"MyPEI is available on the provincial government’s website to residents aged 16 and over with a PEI driver’s licence or voluntary ID."
The ID criterion is inherently discriminatory, based on the person possessing a vehicle or licensed to drive one = a disservice to non-drivers.

"After 6:45, I cannot catch the bus... If no car, I cannot go back home," Mabel Chu said. "Even for groceries, no bus on the weekend means no groceries. In East Royalty, we have only just one bus shelter. In the winter, all the kids & the elderly stand outside. How can we do like this?” #nondrivers
Non-drivers are uncounted and unseen, and so don't figure in transportation, public works, or land use planning. You can help change that! #WeekWithoutDrivingPEI is an opportunity for drivers to gain an understanding what #nondrivers must navigate every time they need or want to go somewhere. #PEI
