Public space tweet :-) Memorial University has a huge footprint in St. John's and some of our most important spaces. IMHO many could be used much better. Share your ideas!

[Memorial University @MemorialU]

Memorial University is embarking on a new Campus Master Plan!

The plan will guide the decisions made about Memorial’s physical infrastructure in the St. John’s region. Your input is needed!

As offered in many major cities and universities across Canada, a U-Pass program relies on a high number of participants and can be offered at a discounted price compared to a student semester bus pass.

@drewfoundland @MeagCam @IndependentNL The new #Ward2 councillor, Shawn Skinner, was on the board governing @MetrobusTransit before he ran and has repeatedly spoken of the need for better transit. Hopefully he will continue @HopeJ709's support for improvements! #NLTraffic #sjpoli #NLPoli

[Essential Transit Association @ETA_NEAvalon]

@drewfoundland @MeagCam @IndependentNL There's a @SJCNL709 planning meeting tonight to discuss next steps in planning towards better transit and an improved UPass proposal. Email [email protected] if you want to take part! #NLtraffic

[MUN_CAC @MUN_CAC]

Improving transit use for the university community could have a big impact in terms of reducing the number of people who drive to campus and the supply of parking lots which could be transformed into green spaces.

[Meagan Campbell @MeagCam]

Tuned into the Transit Town Hall hosted by @MUN_CAC now.

Stoodley reflects that if @MUNSU35 had led the UPass efforts and worked with Metrobus to design a program that students wanted, maybe the vote would have been successful.

Despite pandemic-related challenges, some things have changed for the better in terms of sustainability and climate change. How do we sustain the positive ways things have changed @MemorialU? Join us on Thursday, Sept. 17, to hear more and have your say! https://t.co/OeihgUTYU9

[Kerri Claire @kerriclaireneil]

In 2019 Memorial University students voted on a U-Pass, a bus pass that would be incorporated into the cost of tuition. The proposed U-Pass was cheaper than what is currently offered by Metrobus and promised new routes as well.

[MUN_CAC @MUN_CAC]

Join us for an upcoming webinar! Moving forward with transit @MemorialU following the U-Pass vote with @SarahlStoodley @liam_nfld & Jordan Wright. #nltraffic
