Our Wonderful Green Future
Wouldn't it be nice if the majority of streets in every city were like this. Human scale, green, people, bike, scooter, wheelchair friendly, slow and quiet. Cars are permitted but are not allowed to dominate the street. (Lambeth Oval Low Traffic Neighbourhood)

Cafe on a street in Lambeth, London. Notable because it is nice and green, people are sat outside a cafe eating. It feels safe, intimate, inviting and human scale.

The average consumption of a (gasoline) car for just a 3 km round trip in an urban area is around 5.13 kWh. To get an idea of the scale, this is equivalent to the energy required to keep a ligth bulb ON during more than 53 days.

The average consumption of a car for just a 3 km round trip in an urban area is around 5.13 kWh. To get an idea of the scale, this is equivalent to the energy required to desalinate 1710 litres of seawater. This is equivalent to the consumption of an average Spanish citizen for 12 days.

IMHO,most people do not have a clear idea of the scale of our activities' energy consumption. Ignoring what is more relevant and what is <.In this mini-series of minitoots I will try to highlight the differences in scale through some examples:

🚲 NOUVEAU À MONTRÉAL! 🚲

Notre système de location de vélos-cargos électriques en libre-service sera lancé prochainement dans l’arrondissement de Rosemont - La Petite-Patrie 🚲🥳

Nos cargos seront accessibles à la population montréalaise à cinq différents emplacements dans l’arrondissement. Plus d'informations à venir !

The word "mulo" inserted into a cargo bike to create a logo for the company of the same name.

We know a lot about what would be needed to make mobility more sustainable. However, implementation in Germany has often failed because of legal hurdles.

Thanks to a change in transport law, local authorities now have considerably more opportunities to give health, climate, and the environment more weight in transport planning!

An Bord Pleanála has granted permission for the BusConnects Templeogue/Rathfarnham to City Centre Core Bus Corridor in Dublin. This will be a game changer for public transport reliability and the safety of people walking and cycling.

However I expect that there will be a Judicial Review challenge to this decision by people who won't countenance any inconvenience to their driving habits.

Dutch sustainable mobility consultants Mobycon recently met with Conor Geraghty of Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council to review the work they had done on Lower Kilmacud Road in Dublin.

There are some great insights here about how to design walking and cycling infrastructure that works for people of all ages and abilities and the benefits of introducing modal filters to restrict rat-running on residential streets.

#Quebec #MinisterOfTransport and #SustainableMobility #GenevièveGuilbault tabled her long-awaited bill on Thursday to create #MobilitéInfraQuébec, an agency for the development of #PublicTransit.

The minister said she wanted to regain control of the sector, adding that projects are being carried out too slowly, and they're costing too much.
