@robertbenzie @abacusdataca @TorontoStar In 2016 ward 19 had 30% active mode share - this was when bike share was relatively small and Bloor street was a death trap west of Shaw

@robertbenzie @abacusdataca @TorontoStar “Uhh bike lanes cause traffic” the onus is on you to prove it. I’m tired.

[Michelle @michellekearnel]

I’m on vacation and am so sick of opening my phone to this nonsense. Please speak to people who know what they’re talking about.

[Michelle @michellekearnel]

I expect better from journalists, to actually, I don’t know, understand the data? It’s not 1%, that’s a census stat taken at a regional scale about “usual work mode”—missing many trips. It’s wrong. It’s unethical. Urging @robertbenzie to retract this ASAP and talk to an expert.

@dylan_reid @BikewaysTO The old almost theatre-style seating allowed for more group conversations, though. I can’t picture this being used the same way.

@michellekearnel Sorry, the barriers have achieved heritage designation

[Michelle @michellekearnel]

@KristinEff Did we all collectively forget???? It looks terrible and squeezes all the pedestrians into a tiny space.

[Michelle @michellekearnel]

Sometimes I forget that these jersey barriers were supposed to be a temporary (??) security (??) measure. It’s been 5 years and this is what our city’s major transit hub looks like.

@elamin88 PS I loved reading your book!!!!

[Michelle @michellekearnel]

@elamin88 your book did put me on an immediate re-watch of the OC as an adult - and boy that show reads a lot differently 20 years later

@OhUrbanity That’s a wrap, folks. Thanks for sticking with us, and check out #TACConf

@MattPinder1 kicking off his panel on Social Media and Transportation Planning: Friend or Foe? at the TAC 2023 conference with a mentimeter exercise: most of us using LinkedIn for transport info

The incentives of algorithms encourage black and white thinking without nuance across social media sites. This is unfortunate - we try hard to provide nuance on our channel, says Patrick @OhUrbanity
