5/ For more from our team on gentrification and cycling in Montreal, check out https://t.co/5Fnok71gyA

[INTERACT @TeamInteractCA]

3/ Yet overall, areas with higher material deprivation or racialized people had less cycling infra. in 2011 and 2016.

[INTERACT @TeamInteractCA]

4/ Finally, we found that increases in cycling infra were not associated with socio-economic status. #inequities may not be growing, but they do not seem to be corrected either.

[INTERACT @TeamInteractCA]

2/ Montreal built more new cycling infra in low income areas that did not gentrify between 2011-2016 than in high-income areas.

[INTERACT @TeamInteractCA]

1/ New cycling infra. in areas where there was none in 2011 was less likely in places with a higher percentage of racialized people.

[INTERACT @TeamInteractCA]

New paper out on #gentrification and #cycling https://t.co/DXl6YQw5FB from Behzad Kiani and co.
We looked at new cycling infra in Montreal between 2011 and 2016, alongside population changes in those areas. Did the city direct investment to areas that needed them most?
