Would love to hear from anyone in #PEI, even after today, the final day of #WeekWithoutDrivingPEI.
Thanks to everyone who participated, who wanted to participate and reflected on what it means to be a non-driver in Charlottetown.
See you next year!
#WeekWithoutDriving
As a non-driver, the #WeekWithoutDrivingPEI reflects what everyday life is like for me.
My mobility depends on the bus schedule. Having more daily trips—both in the city and rural areas—and adding weekend service for rural routes, would truly be life-changing.

Even though #WeekWithoutDrivingPEI is nearly over, let the conversations and experiences continue. At home, at school, at work, at social and sports events/activities.
Ask yourselves: What's the change you want to see?
#Charlottetown #StratfordPE #CornwallPE #Summerside #PEI
A few questions related to today's:
~Do you use different modes depending on where you're going?
~Do you use one more more in a certain season?
~Does the mode you choose depend on your destination? Why?
🤔 Ask yourselves: What's the change you want to see?
#WeekWithoutDrivingPEI
~ How much planning did you have to do to figure out how to get from A to B (maybe C) and back?
~ What ideas did you get along the way?
~ What sense of freedom did you get from using the modes of travel that you did?
Share your thoughts & ideas on social media #WeekWithoutDrivingPEI or submit 👇
Consider:
~ Where are you going today?
~ Will you walk, cycle, roll, carpool, take the bus?
~ What combination of modes did you choose?
~ Was your 'travel' pleasant, easy? Why?
~ Or was it complicated, time-consuming? Why?
~ What about cost?

G'day #Charlottetown! We'd be keen to read your answers!
How does the way you get around town say about the city's & province's priorities for our community?
Is walking always easy & pleasant?
Is cycling always safe anytime, anywhere?
Is taking the bus convenient & efficient?
#WeekWithoutDrivingPEI
What a good question!
📌 What would Charlottetown look like if everyone living here could get around how they wanted?
Ask yourself, your neighbours, co-workers, relatives.
Ask your members, subscribers, clients, customers.

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
