If you want to make transit more efficient, effective, and reliable (i.e., a more viable option), you're going to have to give up some space for transit-priority/transit-only infrastructure such as bus-only lanes, BRT, LRT, etc. As long as we insist on putting busses in the same lanes as cars...

Kalen's stance here actually confuses me. She led the team that wrote the City Plan, where one of the big tenets is for the City to use whatever "levers" it has at its disposal (policy, investment, partnerships, and pricing/subsidies) to enact the goals of the plan; but she's coming across as...

Oh, hello. Just popping in for a quick re-introduction: I'm Dave, former Editor (but still a forum moderator for some reason) of SkyriseEdmonton. Been lurking here a bit again lately, thought I'd sign in again to say hello (and to share my latest thoughts on Holyrood Gardens). I've missed...

My ears were apparently burning for a reason. I never expected much from this building architecturally speaking, especially after seeing how 121 West turned out. Even with that in mind, though, I'm actually still shocked at how comically tiny those windows are. But while Holyrood Development...

I'm sure people living along 76 Ave would be thrilled having their street turned into a thoroughfare...

This one is kind of important to me considering my hit-and-run a few years ago was the result of someone passing me unsafely. I know a bylaw alone won't necessarily stop aggressive and impatient drivers, but having it enshrined in law will help safe drivers to remember it, while giving law...
