Cyclists using the Jubilee underpass
by Beth McKechnie 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

From: Prowse, Dan <dcprowse(a)hydro.mb.ca> Please be advised that cyclists using the Jubilee underpass may be affected as follows: a) The underpass will be closed on the weekend for cyclists (and others) using the road from 20:00hrs 2018/12/14 to 04:00hrs 2018/12/17. b) During the week the project has been running a shuttle for pedestrians and cyclist who use the walkway during the demolishing of the old bridge abutment on the east side. Cyclists are permitted to use the road as normal but if a cyclist wishes to be treated as a pedestrian through the underpass, they would need to use the shuttle. By Monday (2018/12/17) it is expected there will be a safe walkway available for pedestrians/cyclists to use, removing the need for the shuttle. Regards, Dan

"The Surprising Power of Parking Management"
by Jeremy Hull 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

"*The Surprising Power of Parking Management*" (https://bit.ly/2SzKRVT ). This Reinventing Parking podcast includes a discussion by Paul Barter and Todd Litman concerning how parking management can help solve diverse urban problems. Put simply, conventional development practices require housing for cars not people, resulting in 2-6 off-street parking spaces per vehicle and a shortage of affordable housing. More efficient management can reduce the number of parking spaces needed to serve a destination, providing huge savings and benefits. Everybody wins! One of his comments, for example, is that the cost of a parking space in an urban area is more than the cost of the car that parks there. The general theme is that we usually pay for parking indirectly through taxes, cost of housing or the cost of a commercial development. Litman argues that instead of making parking "free" to users and providing more parking than the estimated need under these conditions, we should provide a more moderate supply of parking and deal with any excess parking demand through various management approaches, like sharing parking among users. He points out that cheap parking distorts people's transportation decisions, and that where the cost of parking is paid by users they decide to use or buy cars less often.

WFP: Councillor pushes bike registration (Dec13'18)
by Beth McKechnie 13 Dec '18

13 Dec '18

*Database would allow police to determine if a theft has taken place* * Councillor pushes bike registration * https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/councillor-seeks-mandatory-registra… COUN. Ross Eadie thinks mandatory registration could deter the theft of bikes and put a dint in the illegal street sale of methamphetamines. Eadie (Mynarski) is bringing a motion to today’s council meeting, which would direct the administration to draft amendments to the business bylaw and would compel retailers to input ownership and registration data onto the City of Winnipeg’s online bike registry when a bike is sold. Eadie said bike thefts are fuelling the illegal sale of meth and anything that can be done to hit drug dealers is worth the effort. “A hit of meth is selling for $10 and as low as $3,” said Point Douglas activist Sel Burrows, who joined Eadie for a news conference at city hall Wednesday afternoon. “Meth addicts will steal a bike and flip it to a dealer who will give them a hit of meth for it. The dealer then will sell the stolen bike for $80 or $90, depending on the bike.” In April, Eadie said city hall launched a voluntary online bike registry, where bike owners can input their bicycle’s serial number. Police can access that database if, during an investigation, they suspect a bike has been stolen. “The problem with this new system is hardly anyone knows the online registry exists,” Eadie said, adding only about 2,000 bikes have been added to the registry. “If police suspect a bike is stolen now, checking with the online registry isn’t going to help them because chances are it’s not registered,” Eadie said. There is a cost of $6.60 to input data on the city’s online bike registry. Several bikes can be registered per household and three photos of each bike may be posted. If recovered by police, the stolen bikes will be returned without additional charge. Registration can be done at: winnipeg.ca/bikeregistry The city says upwards of 3,000 bikes are stolen every year. While police recover about 1,000 bikes, less than one tenth are traced back to their owners and returned. Burrows said bikes are stolen in areas from around the downtown and then taken to meth dealers in his neighbourhood. “You see people riding a bike and pulling a second, very nice one along with them,” Burrows said. “You know the second bike is stolen, but if they’re stopped and questioned, they’ll just say it belongs to their brother. The bike’s not registered on the online registry, so the police can’t do anything.” Burrows said making bike registration compulsory will build up the number of bikes on the registry to the point where meth addicts and dealers won’t want to run the risk of getting caught holding a stolen bike. Eadie said he believes the registry cost could be lowered if more people used it. “When you reach a certain level of bikes being registered, the bad guys are going to stop stealing bikes because they know there’ll be a reasonable chance when the police stop them that the bike will be registered and they’ll be charged with possession of stolen goods,” Burrows said. “The fact police can charge them right on the spot with possession of stolen goods will mean they’ll stop stealing bikes.” aldo.santin(a)freepress.mb.ca

18 'golden' questions - marketing by mobility attitudes
by Beth McKechnie 12 Dec '18

12 Dec '18

Hi everyone, Not the catchiest subject line, but it turns out there is compelling research on how to group people based on their responses to 18 'golden' questions about travel mode attitudes and preferences. Segmenting respondents into these groups allows you to target marketing messages around travel behaviour change and increase the likelihood of your message resonating with the person. The following links to the webinar recording, slides and the market-segment prediction tool: https://nitc.trec.pdx.edu/events/professional-development/webinar-11282018 Would be great to see these questions included in a Winnipeg-wide survey, such as the Winnipeg Area Travel Survey (WATS) that is apparently in the works (last completed in 2007). The ability to tailor messaging by segment and neighbourhood could be especially valuable in getting more people to switch from driving alone. cheers, Beth -- Beth McKechnie* | *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/>.
