But they are often not recommended or allowed (via local policy) on the higher-speed streets typically associated with the highest injury severity for pedestrians. For those higher-speed streets, redesigning them to communicate lower speed, such as through a roadway-reconfiguration effort, can effectively accomplish the goal of lowering speed. In the absence of street redesign, however, another effective current solution is enforcement, and particularly automated speed enforcement (ASE) that frees police to focus on other issues and that is free from implicit or explicit bias. It is important to carefully consider community context when selecting locations to employ ASE, to avoid disproportionately burdening any historically disadvantaged communities that surround the typically high-speed streets that need to be addressed. The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's *NCHRP Synthesis 535: Pedestrian Safety Relative to Traffic-Speed Management* aims to document what is known about strategies and countermeasures to address pedestrian safety via traffic-speed management in urban environments. For example, the City of San Francisco regularly uses curb extensions as traffic-calming devices on its streets. However, the political and land use context of each city heavily influences the types of treatments that are considered feasible for each city. Thus, the City of Los Angeles has had to find alternatives to both ASE and road diets, the latter of which have been the subject of intense public backlash in some cases. These realities—that speed management can be fraught with difficulty—have spurred creative thinking about how to work within contextual confines, resulting in some particularly noteworthy and promising practices. For example, the City of Nashville anticipated potential backlash against speed-management efforts and thus chose to work with advocacy groups to identify areas of the city desiring walkability improvements. By installing walkability improvements in those areas first, city leaders created instant wins that could be used as leverage for future projects. The authors of the synthesis found there may be a need for greater clarity about the speed-limit-setting process, as well as for greater collaboration between local and state agencies when state roads run through urban areas. In particular, it may be worth exploring whether there is a need for a framework that will foster collaboration between local and state staff on safety initiatives such as achieving flexibility in roadway design, changing laws or regulations that govern speed-limit setting, and finding a balance between local safety needs and regional mobility needs. Such a framework may support both local and state agencies attempting to address safety issues and reach larger goals as articulated through movements like Vision Zero.

WFP: City tests school-zone beacons donated by businessman (Oct24'19)
by Beth McKechnie 24 Oct '19

24 Oct '19

*City tests school-zone beacons donated by businessman* * Amber markers await green light * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/flashing-amber-stuck-at-red-awaitin… BUSINESSMAN Chuck Lewis is hoping to begin installing flashing amber lights, which he wants to buy for city school zones, before Christmas. Lewis said he provided one of the beacons, which is undergoing a two-stage testing process, to the city earlier this month. “They’re the same beacons that have been installed all across Toronto, so I can’t see there being any problems because I’m sure Toronto tested them, too, before they installed them,” Lewis said. Lewis, general manager of Expert Electric, has offered to purchase and install solar-powered flashing amber lights for all reduced-speed school zones in the city. A civic spokeswoman said there are 225 schools that have reduced-speed zones. Each light costs around $3,500, with two lights per zone — one for each traffic direction on an adjacent street. The minimum cost of the initiative would be $1.575 million. Some schools have more than one adjacent reduced-speed street, adding more lights and higher costs to the equation. Surprisingly, for a gift with such a large price tag, the city has acted cautiously. Lewis approached the city with the idea four years ago but was rejected by officials, who claimed the province wouldn’t allow him to do it. Coun. Kevin Klein heard about Lewis’s original offer shortly after taking office following the 2018 election, and in early July, raised it at the Assiniboia community committee. The committee endorsed it and recommended the offer to the property and development committee, which deals with offers of gifts to the city. The committee also supported the offer and instructed the administration to investigate. The administration prepared a report for the committee’s Sept. 4 meeting endorsing the offer and said a formal legal agreement would be drafted and brought back to the committee. What the public service didn’t tell the committee, however, was that the public works department wanted the lights tested before an agreement would be drafted and signed. Lewis said testing the lights before the city agreed to accept the offer made sense. “There’s no point in me giving them several hundred beacons only to learn they won’t stand up to our conditions, but I don’t see how they won’t.” Lewis said he was surprised to learn that even with the committee’s direction in September, civic officials were hesitant to buy the one light needed for testing. “They said they didn’t want me to provide a light that they might possibly wreck during the testing phase, but they said no one at city hall was willing to sign off on the purchase of the one light they needed for the test,” Lewis said. “Can you believe it? It only cost about $3,500 to buy, but no one was willing to approve the purchase. I said, ‘What the heck, I’ll buy it.’ I’m going to buy them all, anyway.” Once approved, the lights will be installed on the same posts that the reduced-speed signs are posted on. They’ll be programmed to flash only during the time stipulated in the bylaw and posted on the signs: 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, from September to June. Coun. Brian Mayes, chairman of the property and development committee, said councillors will get an update on the initiative at a meeting on Monday. Lewis said the city set up the beacon at one of its works yards two weeks ago for a month-long testing period, adding that will be followed by a second month-long test in a school zone. David Patman, the city’s manager of transportation, told the committee at its Sept. 4 meeting the testing is necessary to ensure it meets regulatory standards and so the city is not exposed to any future liabilities. Lewis is convinced the testing is only a formality. “They said after one month, if it passes all their tests, it will be put at a school for a month. Then after that, it’s a go,” he said. “They seemed happy with it the last time I talked to them about it. There were no concerns.” aldo.santin(a)freepress.mb.ca

23 Oct '19

Thanks to Terry Zdan for the share of this new (U.S.) tool: *New modes of transportation are popping up in cities and towns across the world. Innovations include transportation network companies like Lyft, Uber, and Via, and more recently dockless bikes and scooters, all of which have shaken up transportation sector.* *These new technologies are likely to have dramatic impacts on the way people move – but how do we assess this impact? These new technologies provide additional choices, but which improves overall mobility? While walk or bike scores that exist in some cities are useful, they don’t look at the whole mobility picture or consider future technologies like connected cars and automated vehicles. How do we assess the energy impacts of these technologies? Evaluate their affordability? Or weigh their tradeoffs and overall impact across various dimensions? * Full story: https://www.energy.gov/eere/articles/how-do-you-measure-mobility -- Beth McKechnie (she/her) *| *Green Action Centre <http://www.greenactioncentre.ca/> 3rd floor, 303 Portage Ave | (204) 925-3777 x102 | Find us here <http://greenactioncentre.ca/content/ecocentre-directions-and-travel-options/> Green Action Centre is your green living hub Support our work by becoming a member <http://greenactioncentre.ca/support/become-a-member/>.

WFP Analysis: Shared streets create vibrancy (Oct21'19)
by Beth McKechnie 21 Oct '19

21 Oct '19

*Shared streets create vibrancy * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/analysis/shared-streets-create-vi… WHEN it comes to moving around our cities, Canadians live in a world of rules — green lights, yellow lights, red lights, speed limits, crosswalks, countdowns, no parking, no stopping, no riding on the sidewalk. All these rules are intended to order pedestrians, drivers and cyclists into individual corridors where each can move with blind obedience to lights and signs. They are designed to keep vehicles moving quickly, and naturally prioritize traffic flow for the largest, fastest and most dangerous road users. Sometimes a street has a different purpose, a different story to tell. Some streets are more importantly a great place than a great connector. To be this, they must be designed first as somewhere to linger, not to move quickly through. A street can be the social and economic heart of its community. Those with a strong sense of place can entice people to the sidewalks and public spaces, key to making urban neighbourhoods attractive places to live, work, shop and socialize. But when vehicle speed is prioritized, these streets feel less safe and become less attractive to sit near, live on or walk along. And as they attract fewer people, the businesses falter, the appeal to new residents decreases and the neighbourhood begins to decline. About 30 years ago, a Dutch traffic engineer named Hans Monderman looked at the design of low-traffic streets and considered ways to prioritize all users equally, to make streets safe, vibrant and attractive places for people. His radical solution was to get rid of the rules completely, calling the idea a “shared street.” Imagine sitting on a bench, enjoying a coffee, and the street in front of you looks more like a public plaza than a road. There are no curbs, and no sidewalks. Spaces are defined with trees, planters, benches and outdoor cafés. The paving pattern on the road surface appears as a single, beautiful piece of public art where parents pushing strollers, people riding bikes and even drivers in slow-moving cars mix seamlessly in a choreographed kaleidoscope of movement. It sounds like a utopian fantasy that would in reality lead to carnage in the streets, like a scene from a Mad Max movie, but shared streets exist around the world. They are counterintuitive and initially almost always met with skepticism, but they often work. In the absence of signage, lights and defined areas for each road user, people rely on social interaction to define their space. Instead of robotically following traffic signals, the natural uncertainty of the environment causes drivers to instinctively slow down (typically to 10 km/h) and become more engaged with other road users. People stop looking at signs and begin looking at each other. A pedestrian makes eye contact with a driver — a nod to go ahead, a wave, and they each proceed. When done successfully, the street becomes a place where everyone is equal, creating a safe and welcoming environment that can transform the character of an entire neighbourhood. Now imagine you are watching this scene in Winnipeg’s Exchange District. Coun. Vivian Santos is hoping this will become reality, recently bringing forward a motion which proposes a pilot project for a shared-streets concept on Bannatyne Avenue and Albert and Arthur streets, adjacent to Old Market Square. The motion was approved to proceed by a public works committee. The idea came out of recent debate about the challenges of incorporating loading zones that are being displaced by bike lanes required to protect cyclists from higher-speed vehicle traffic. The shared-streets concept maintains vehicle access, allowing loading to occur for local businesses, and eliminates the need for bike lanes because of the inherent safety of reduced traffic speeds. The proposal has these pragmatic roots, but it represents a much greater opportunity to introduce a new level of vibrancy to the Exchange District, helping to make it the destination and livable neighbourhood that it has the potential to be. Cities across the world are embracing the idea of shared streets. Most began with similar pilot projects to familiarize people with the idea, and the concept is almost always embraced and expanded. Montreal has now implemented more than seven kilometres of shared and pedestrian streets, and offers financial grants to neighbourhoods wanting to create them across the city. Halifax recently transformed two major downtown routes into shared streets, with great success, creating more people-focused spaces that support the vitality of downtown. The notoriously car-centric city of Auckland, New Zealand, has used the shared-streets idea to transform its city centre into a vibrant, pedestrian- focused neighbourhood. A program was developed in 2011 to implement the strategy, and today seven downtown streets are shared space. The results have been overwhelmingly successful, increasing pedestrian volumes by 54 per cent and consumer spending by 47 per cent, and three-quarters of all property owners claim it has added value to their businesses. The number of vehicles has fallen by 25 per cent, far fewer collisions have occurred and about 80 per cent of people surveyed say they feel safer in the area. Winnipeggers are traditionally resistant to change, but the proposal to implement a shared streets pilot project in the Exchange District is an exciting opportunity to look at how we move through our city in a new way. Back-in diagonal parking was introduced a few years ago, to high levels of public skepticism, but after a pilot program, it has become a successful norm. The physical character of the Exchange is similar to popular shared-street precedents in other cities, and represents an opportunity to create a new type of public space that makes streets safer while supporting businesses and residents. It is a progressive step forward in the goal of redefining our downtown as a vibrant and prosperous place for people. *Brent Bellamy is creative director at Number Ten Architectural Group.*

WFP: WPS official grilled on pedestrian safety (Oct15'19)
by Beth McKechnie 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

*Councillors question whether increased traffic revenues sending message to drivers* * WPS official grilled on pedestrian safety * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/wps-official-grilled-on-pedestrian-… WHILE A Winnipeg Police Service (WPS) finance manager was bragging about a 22 per cent rise in traffic enforcement revenue, two councillors Friday grilled her over whether police work was making city streets any safer. Tara Holowka told the city’s finance committee that while revenue from photo enforcement was down 10 per cent in 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, revenue from traditional enforcement was up 22 per cent. “So, good news on that side,” she said, adding the number of tickets issued by traffic officers was running 46 per cent ahead of 2018. Councillors Shawn Nason and Markus Chambers both took her to task on the statement. Chambers said the number of pedestrian deaths so far this year is triple for all of last year. “Revenues are up, but I don’t know if it’s keeping the population any safer,” Chambers said. Nason asked how any of her figures was good news. “Are our drivers that bad that we’re catching more?” Nason asked. “Is that a measurement of police issuing more tickets or drivers not getting the message?” Chambers asked. Being a numbers person, Holowka answered the only way she could: “It’s good for revenue.” Manitoba Public Insurance said there have been nine pedestrians killed in vehicle collisions in Winnipeg to the end of September, compared to three for all of 2018. Shawna Curtin, the secretary of the Winnipeg Police Board, told the committee that safety and enforcement were separate issues. “I don’t think we can call ticket revenue a performance measure in terms of safety,” Curtin said. “It’s not good news, necessarily, when revenue goes up, but it is a good news story that people are being sanctioned for poor driving,” Curtin said. “It’s impossible to say if that makes us safer or not,” adding similar public discussions at police board meetings and at city hall are having an effect in the community. “People are paying attention if those sanctions do have some effect.” An administrative report to the committee examining revenue and expenses from all departments shows the city is projecting a year-end deficit of $6.9 million, with the WPS accounting for $1.1 million of that. The WPS’ projected year-end deficit is attributed to the decline in photo enforcement revenue. While the WPS Q2 data shows that revenue from traditional traffic enforcement is up 22 per cent compared to the same time frame in 2018, the actual dollar difference is $230,000; while the 10 per cent decline in photo enforcement revenue is almost twice that amount, $510,000. Nason said police and city officials should focus on school zones that have a high incident of speed violations, bringing in traffic officers to target the bad drivers. “Where are the school zones that kids are being put at risk? That is important community information that we should have readily available to us,” Nason said. Nason said he’s been frustrated in his efforts to get data on speeding violations in school zones in his Transcona ward. He said a request to the public works department for an accounting by individual school zone for 2018 cannot be provided to him until sometime in 2020. “Let’s look at where people aren’t paying attention and just put physical enforcement there on occasion to change behaviours,” Nason said following the meeting. aldo.santin(a)freepress.mb.ca

WFP: Cyclist seeks driver who hit him (Oct10'19)
by Beth McKechnie 10 Oct '19

10 Oct '19

*Motorist fled, leaving man with broken arm, leg* * Cyclist seeks driver who hit him * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/badly-injured-cyclist-seeks-driver-… A CYCLIST who was hit from behind by a vehicle in a 90 km/h zone is searching for the motorist who sped away. Jordan Sylvestre was disoriented and in distress after he was knocked off his bicycle during his Tuesday morning commute. In thinking back to the frantic moments that followed, the 34-year-old cyclist remembers one thing for certain — “There were no brake lights,” which showed the driver didn’t slow down after hitting Sylvestre. At 6:12 a.m. on Tuesday, Sylvestre was biking southbound on Pipeline Road, just south of the Perimeter Highway, when he was struck by a vehicle that sped off toward the city. “I was blindsided at about 90 km/h, I should be dead,” he said during a phone interview from his home in West St. Paul on Wednesday. He survived the hit and run, but not without being severely injured. Sylvestre broke his leg and arm and suffered abrasions all over his body. Now, he and his family are searching for the motorist responsible. They only know the person was driving a silver Honda. Pieces of the car, including its right passenger mirror, were scattered on the side of the asphalt road after the incident. “If anybody has seen, in their neighbourhood or in a parkade or at work, a silver Honda that’s missing a passenger mirror, and potentially, likely other damage to the front or side, right corner, alert police,” he said. (Anyone can submit a tip to the Winnipeg Police Service at 204-986-6222 or Crime Stoppers at 204-786-8477.) A local police spokesperson said the incident took place outside of its jurisdiction, although Sylvestre said he filed a report with Winnipeg police. WPS did not respond to a followup request. RCMP did not respond to multiple requests for comment on Wednesday. Sylvestre has been commuting to his engineering job in the city from the rural municipality northwest of Winnipeg for about two years. He was wearing a helmet and headlamp and his bike was equipped with a back light. While he has always enjoyed the exercise, he said he might put his bike away after the traumatic incident. “I can only be as safe as the most unsafe driver out there, so I need to figure out, especially now with a young (daughter), whether I want to put myself in that position again,” he said. All collisions are preventable as far as the executive director of Bike Winnipeg is concerned. “I don’t think there’s any way you wouldn’t have seen him, unless you’re really oblivious and texting or something, which is also incredibly dangerous,” Mark Cohoe said. Cohoe said there’s a need for the city and province to recognize that suburban areas require infrastructure that protects all road users, including lower speed limits. “I don’t think I’d want to be passed at 90 km/h on that road,” he said. maggie.macintosh(a)freepress.mb.ca Twitter: @macintoshmaggie

WFP Analysis: Pedestrian scrambles would be street smart (Oct9'19)
by Beth McKechnie 09 Oct '19

09 Oct '19

*Pedestrian scrambles would be street smart * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/analysis/pedestrian-scrambles-wou… LIKE oil and water, vehicles and pedestrians don’t mix easily. Winnipeg has the death toll to prove it. To improve the chances that pedestrians and cyclists can get home safely, the city recently introduced several proactive measures. Another batch of changes is about to be devised, including the expected introduction of pedestrian scrambles, a measure for which the city’s public works department has high hopes. “We think this will have an effect on removing the conflict between pedestrians and motorists,” David Patman, manager of transportation, said during a recent committee meeting. In theory, pedestrian scrambles are a good concept. Signals stop all vehicular traffic simultaneously, and pedestrians and cyclists safely cross the intersection in every direction, including diagonally, at the same time. The scrambles are being considered by public works as part of something called the Road Safety Strategic Action Plan, a blueprint to make Winnipeg roads safer. The city advertised for consultants to help compose the plan and will award the contract on Oct. 29. The city is also considering cameras at more intersections, new flashing countdowns at crosswalks and protected left-turn lanes. These would add to a strategy of big and small changes already completed and obvious to everyone who drives regularly on Winnipeg roads. Small changes include signage warning drivers about high-risk intersections, more “walk” signals that count down the time before the signal turns to “don’t walk,” speed tables that grab the attention of drivers by raising the road surface about eight centimetres for a length of seven metres, and a building spree of 43 new stop signs and 27 new pedestrian crosswalks. Larger changes include expanded bike lanes, with Wolseley and West Broadway likely the next to get better cycling routes. Also, several years ago, 30 km/h speed limits were instituted at 230 school zones. The traffic planners at city hall are doing many things right. The problem is a small but hazardous number of Winnipeg drivers who are distracted, aggressive and feel the rules of the road don’t apply to them. Ten pedestrians have been killed in Winnipeg so far in 2019, which is more than triple the three pedestrians killed last year. And all urban cyclists tell horror stories of getting cut off, edged out or hit by vehicles whose drivers scoff at the notion that bicycles have just as much right to the road as motor vehicles. These dangerous drivers will likely get irate when they experience how scrambles negatively affect vehicle traffic. In scrambles, red lights for vehicles last longer so pedestrians and cyclists in all directions have time to get across. That means lineups of vehicles grow longer, particularly during rush hour. In New York, some scrambles have congested vehicular traffic to the point of gridlock. To anticipate how some drivers will react to scrambles, look at the public opposition when 30 km/h speed limits were instituted around schools several years ago. The purpose was to keep children safe; who could object to that? A small but vocal number of Winnipeg drivers, that’s who. Many publicly expressed vexation when ticketed for speeding through the school zones, even though slowing down would have added only about 10 seconds to their trips. Precedent shows some Winnipeg drivers don’t learn easily. Zipper merging is a good example. Advertising campaigns have tried to teach Winnipeg drivers that, when two or more lanes of traffic approach a bottleneck, drivers from each lane are supposed to take turns entering the gap, like a zipper. There’s lots of opportunity to practise these days on the many Winnipeg streets where lanes suddenly end because of construction. But many inconsiderate drivers defend their position in line by blocking others from entering ahead of them. When these same drivers encounter scrambles, some will get clench-jawed angry that their routes have been slowed considerably for the convenience of pedestrians and cyclists. It won’t do any good to tell these drivers they should commend, not condemn, their fellow Winnipeggers who walk and cycle to benefit the environment and their personal health. In Winnipeg, the car culture rules. People choose retail and recreational outings based on the availability of parking, fast-food restaurants find great success by serving diners in their vehicles and zoning bylaws let downtown be dominated by ugly parking lots. It’s not wrong to enjoy our vehicles. But it is wrong for drivers of vehicles to endanger the smart people whose transportation choices include a bicycle or sturdy walking shoes. The angry drivers will just have to live with it as pedestrians and cyclists are prioritized. Scrambles are one more way Winnipeg’s traffic scene is heading in the right direction. *Carl DeGurse is a member of the Free Press editorial board.* carl.degurse(a)freepress.mb.ca
