@BankStOtrain @REDBLACKS @AtleticoOttawa @Senators @grok Let's not forget Ottawa Charge and Ottawa Rapid FC!
English
The updated Ottawa Bank Street O-Train Subway concept map is impressive because it includes Lansdowne Stadium for the @REDBLACKS football team and @AtleticoOttawa soccer club, as well as the planned @Senators Stadium on Confederation Line 1. Is this a good idea @grok ?
English
We have new really nice map which includes the planned Ottawa Senators hockey stadium

@ABetterOttawa @FilmendeFietser This was noticeable in the spring 2020 shutdowns.

As someone who’s gotten stuff stolen off their bike at the Rideau Station William St. racks, this is exactly what we need. Proper, secure, clean, simple bike parking facilities.
I’d go as far to say we should have this at hubs like Bayshore and St. Laurent stn as well. 🚲+🛤️!❤️

This week, the City of Rotterdam opened a beautiful new parking structure for 900 bicycles in the city center—named "De Koopgoot"—which will allow visitors to store their bikes close to shops, restaurants, and cultural institutions in a free, supervised, and sheltered facility.🧵

@ShawnMenard1 How do you keep the squirrels from eating them? Our tree showed promise, but they were all gone by early August.

Pear season in the house. Front yard trees really produced this year! I give these to Neigbours but still end up eating local pears until January!

@ShawnMenard1 One of the big deterrents to commuting by bike is the risk of theft. If there was truly secure bicycle parking at work sites, shopping centres, etc., I really think a lot more people would do it.

I’m a big fan of budgeting #FIRE and finding ways to reduce spending in my personal life where possible. I also love a good garage sale and deals. One of the biggest cost savings I have in my life is simply riding my bike to commute. Biking can save people a lot of money.

@smwgilbert Yes! And it's also the first full week of classes at high schools, universities, and colleges!

City: we must have public servants back in the office more days a week or our transit system won’t survive!
Fed gov: okay
City:….

@siobhanwanders I remember how noticeably quieter the city was when everything shut down in spring 2020 and realizing it was the reduction in traffic on the Queensway and Bronson.
English
Someone posted in our neighborhood group how quiet it is with the 417 being closed.
Cities aren’t loud, cars are!
Happy 417 partial closure weekend to all who celebrate. Enjoy the quiet and imagining how nice #Ottawa could be without an ugly loud highway running through it!

At last! #OttBike #OttWalk #OttRoll the bridge between Carleton and Vincent Massey is open. It’s a great addition for active transit. ottawa.ctvnews.ca/video/c2941128…

I’m told this may have involved an #OttBike. Anyone have details?

@NSaravanamuttoo Why Holmwood? Traffic to QED already flows through Findlay/Broadway, so this may be the more natural route?
This proposal also allows the homes along that stretch of QED to maintain driveway access.

@deonandan It appears to have been updated recently

This would be ridiculous if it were true. But when I look up the Johns Hopkins LGBT glossary, the definition of lesbian is clearly, "A *woman* who is emotionally, romantically, sexually, affectionately, or relationally attracted to other women..."

J.K. Rowling@jk_rowling
Man: no definition needed. Non-man (formerly known as woman): a being definable only by reference to the male. An absence, a vacuum where there's no man-ness.

@CHeartsTrees I just read the instructions and have a question. I'm on Riverside MUP East of Bank. Do I just count the MUP or vehicles on Riverside as well? If doing the road too, I would only see westbound traffic, as the road is split there with a building in the middle!
English
@ShawnMenard1 Reliable affordable public transit that goes where people want/need to go.
Consideration of people not in cars when planning streets, sidewalks, snow clearing, intersections, bike lanes, access to amenities, etc.

It’s my birthday today! As a present, tell me about your top 2 dreams for the City of Ottawa :)
