Transportation planner working in #Toronto, providing the evidence that leads to good decisions. Seeking ways to restore and redeem the city. Views are my own.

@BlueJays @yunitogurriel You couldn't have waited until after my son opened his @yunitogurriel jersey on Sunday??

@shoshannasaxe @HousesLaneway Breaking ground next week! With the help of @SolaresArch

@416expat Very nice work!
Beware of the difference between "solid oak" and "solid, oak".

A good reminder that transit and city building is about a lot more than throwing money at infrastructure.

An amazing show, all around!

This is my favourite video of the year. Maybe of the DECADE.

“It means you spend a lot of money now for a very short-term benefit."

A PERFECT reminder of why wider roads won’t solve congestion, via Australia’s great show “Utopia” on @ABCTV. Please share!

@drmattpalm We use "at-grade" or "surface-running". You can have transit on the surface that is not in mixed traffic.

@StephenWickens1 @humantransit In my opinion, transportation accessibility is the most useful measure of network efficacy, and yes, it's too uneven in Toronto. Exacerbated by economic shifts and rapid growth.

Looking at new and better tools for measuring and reporting accessibility in business cases.

[Mike Logan @mjclogan]

I'm really looking forward to attending this. Social equity in transportation is a key issue facing our growing city!

My dad was one of these first recruits. I didn't know him well, but Michael Kusner was so well regarded at @RYSURP

[Blair Scorgie 🍁 @BlairScorgie]

Today, @RYSURP lost its founder, Michael Kusner. Michael established the program in 1968, lead the drafting of the original curriculum, visited area secondary schools and personally interviewed the first candidates, and helped the program achieve its professional accreditation.

@LynnKinTO @RebeccaLovesTV Our kids make blanket forts all the time... Which is lovely except when they won't take then down 😄

[James Perttula @JamesPerttula]

Come out to one of our meetings to provide your thoughts on policies that shape the future of Toronto.

[Mike Logan @mjclogan]

@metromorning Aren't conservatives supposed to be in favour of market-based solutions to policy issues?

[Mike Logan @mjclogan]

@urbanplan_b Agreed.
I worked for a great ADM once who personally provided a home espresso machine. I never went out to buy coffee!

This article has a vaguely disparaging tone, but cutting land lines is the kind of common sense we need more of.

Another great opportunity for community members to contribute to the Eglinton East LRT project! We're taking public space, economic development and planning. @CityPlanTO @Dilloncities @thecrazydames

[Merr @MerrileesWill]

Lots of #EglintonEastLRT discussions at Kingston and Morningside. People are happy with the plans for LRT!

Meet the Eglinton East LRT, an easterly extension of the Eglinton Crosstown from Kennedy Station. The Eglinton East LRT will provide improved local transit access to over 40,000 residents within walking distance. #TOpoli #TransitTO https://t.co/4u0QfR5jBt

@mtroads1 @bluejayschirps @BlueJays I'm just glad that it's not my job to be up there in the rain/snow.
