WFP: Reduced limits in effect Monday: School zones apply new, lower speeds (Aug.30'14)

Reduced limits in effect Monday: School zones apply new, lower speeds By: Jessica Botelho-Urbanski http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/reduced--limits-in-effect--monday-27… u [image: Speeds around Winnipeg's 171 elementary schools will be reduced to 30 km/h starting Monday. The fine is a steep $310 for going the usual posted limit of 50 km/h.] <http://media.winnipegfreepress.com/images/800*610/140829-STDUP_SCHOOL_SPD__…> Speeds around Winnipeg's 171 elementary schools will be reduced to 30 km/h starting Monday. The fine is a steep $310 for going the usual posted limit of 50 km/h. (KEN GIGLIOTTI / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS) Though you might be in a rush to get the kids back to school, you'll have to get there more slowly. New speed limits in 171 school zones -- a drop to 30 km/h from 50 km/h in most areas -- go into effect Monday and city police realize the new speeds might take some time to get used to. "Reducing speeds from 50 to 30 is a significant drop. We're all going to have to be extra aware and extra cautious," said Const. Jason Michalyshen. "Regardless of time of day or day of week, we have to get into that habit." School zones in other areas of the province, such as Brandon, Winkler and Portage la Prairie, have already adopted restricted speeds. This is not a new or innovative practice, said spokeswoman for the Manitoba branch of the Canadian Automobile Association, Angèle Young. "Speed is always a concern no matter how many speed bumps, crosswalks and patrols you have. There's still drivers and motorcyclists that will speed through school zones and they need to know it's a law required of them to slow down," Young said. "If our speeds are reduced, we can react quicker, we can stop faster. And if in fact there is contact made, when speeds are reduced, the likelihood of significant injuries is greatly reduced as well," said Michalyshen. New street signs advertising the changing speed limits popped up in recent weeks. The new limits will be effective between 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. from Monday to Friday, between September and June. Traditional and photo radar ticket enforcement will still apply to school zones, too, to ensure children's safety, said Michalyshen. "We want kids to be safe. It doesn't matter where they are, but in relation to these particular areas near school zones, we're going to be there monitoring," he said. As of Monday, going 50 km/h in a school zone advertised as 30 km/h will cost speedsters $310. Michalyshen suggested officers would not start issuing tickets immediately. "This first week isn't about us putting out the message that we're out there and if you're not travelling at the posted speed limit in these school zones, then it's all about tickets," said Michalyshen. "Changing habits often takes time and hopefully, it's not a significant amount of time... at the expense of injuries." jessica.botelho-urbanski(a)freepress.mb.ca *Republished from the Winnipeg Free Press print edition August 30, 2014 A8* JUST SLOW DOWN *How reduced speed levels can prevent deaths* A pedestrian hit by a motorist going 40 km/h has a 25 per cent chance of being killed. Going 50? The pedestrian has a 55 per cent chance of being killed. Going 60? The pedestrian has an 85 per cent chance of being killed. If a pedestrian is hit at a significant speed, it's comparable to a drop from a great height. Being hit at 50 km/h is like falling from a three-storey building. Being hit at 75 km/h is like falling off an eight-storey building. Being hit at 100 km/h is like falling off a 12-storey building. Source: CAA (Canadian Automobile Association)

Late notice but if you're available please join Green Action Centre and Bike Winnipeg to watch the following APBP and Green Lane Project webinar* tomorrow (Wed) afternoon* in the EcoCentre <http://greenactioncentre.ca/content/ecocentre-directions-and-travel-options/> boardroom. With protected bike lanes in Winnipeg on Pembina and Assiniboine Ave, and construction underway for the parking protected bike lane on Sherbrook, it's a timely topic. If you are unable to attend but still want to hear either of these free recorded webinars, here's the link: Intersections and Protected Bike Lanes / <http://www.apbp.org/?page=PBL_webinars>Accessibility and Protected Bike Lanes <http://www.apbp.org/?page=PBL_webinars> cheers, Beth (204) 925-3772 ** * * * ** *Intersections and Protected Bike Lanes* *APBP recorded webinar | Wed, Aug. 27th, 2014 | 2:00-3:00 pm* *Key takeaways*: - Learn about current practice for designing protected bike lanes at intersections - Consider aspects of Dutch cycle track design at intersections that are transferable to the North American context - Review elements of Dutch treatments implemented in U.S. cities *Description*: One of the greatest challenges to designing a protected bike lane is getting the lane through an intersection. This webinar focuses on the most forward-looking work related to protected bike lanes at intersections, as well as lessons that can be learned from Dutch design. Presenters will discuss geometric techniques for managing speed and mitigating right turn issues and best practices for signal phasing and mixing zones. Going beyond current practice, we ask “What do next generation protected bike lanes at intersections look like?” and discuss how North American intersections designs can look and function more like their Dutch counterparts. The session includes examples of Dutch-style elements and treatments already installed in the U.S. *Presenters*: - Nick Falbo, MURP, Senior Planner, Alta Planning + Design - Nathan Roseberry, Senior Transportation Engineer, T.Y.

FW: Cycling / Active Transport - interest - Aug 11/14 Tourism News
by Reaney, Vicky (MMG) 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

Social media: The Wild West of behavioural data collection <http://newsletter.travelmanitoba.com/newsletter_redirect.asp?link_id=7082&&…> When tech company Strava was founded in 2009 it had a simple mission - to help cyclists and runners keep track of their activities. It didn't take long, however, for an entirely different group of customers to take an interest. San Francisco-based Strava has received so many requests for its user data that it now runs a secondary business selling anonymized cycling data to municipalities and other groups looking to better understand how and why local cyclists choose the routes they do. The Oregon Department of Transportation, for example, paid $20,000 last year for a data set that included information about 400,000 trips made by 35,000 Oregon cyclists in 2013. A simple activity-tracker app, it appears, has collected enough data from its users to help decipher one of the great modern-day urban planning mysteries.

This webinar focuses on strategies these communities can use to develop routine inclusion of active transportation in new and retrofit projects. Using examples drawn from Montana and Ontario, presenters explain the barriers and challenges for active transportation in small communities, and identify approaches that build on inherent advantages such as compact geography and traditional street grids. Strategies such as complete streets and sidewalk policies, joint use agreements, development codes and subdivision regulations, Safe Routes to School, transportation plans, and encouragement and evaluation programs help communities build support and capacity for active transportation.

Volunteer Opportunity: Got an iPhone? Count traffic for Ciclovia...test CounterPoint
by Anders Swanson 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi, [Feel free to share this widely.] CounterPoint 1.0, the first iOS release of Green Action Centre's award-winning active transportation planning tool is now in the App Store. We would love to have your help testing it out in the real world. We are looking for approximately 5-15 volunteers willing to spend 2 hours counting traffic on a Sunday. Its for a good cause (and way more practical than Angry Birds!) *We hope to be counting on the following days:* - Sunday August 31st - Sunday September 7th - Sunday September 14th *At these locations:* - Norwood bridge - Broadway downtown - Westminster/Mostyn - Sherbrook/Maryland bridges - The Main Street Entrance to the Forks - Assiniboine Cycle Track To volunteer, first please fill out this availability poll <http://doodle.com/rn42kwyc3drfcvps> with your first name, date(s) and the preferred location (in parenthesis). Then, please send me a separate email with your name and phone number so I can give you a call at some point. *How Does the App Work? * Kind of like a clipboard, with a brain and some blinky-lights. Seriously, using the app itself should be fairly self-explanatory, the counterpoints will all be set up and I will be giving volunteers a quick call beforehand to go over any questions. For now if anyone is keen, just go into the app store on your phone, and search for "counterpoint". Create an account, and either set one up or find an existing counterpoint near you. Give it a try. Its free, of course. *Why do this count?* The goal of this coordinated count is threefold: 1. To help better understand the user impact of the Ciclovia event. 2. To help assess the need for and current usage of AT infrastructure on routes nearby. 3. Get feedback/ideas for a planned new "campaign" feature of the app in a future software update. Afterwards, for those who are willing, everyone is invited for a nice informal beer/coffee (my treat) where I'd love to get feedback in person if you happen to have any. (No feedback is fine too, that means there are less bugs, and then we can just proceed to drinking beer/coffee..) Hopefully you will find that using CounterPoint is relaxing, challenging and actually kind of fun. To learn more about CounterPoint, visit counterpointapp.org Thanks a lot! Sincerely Anders On behalf of.. *The CounterPoint Team* see us on... *Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/CounterPointApp> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/counterpointapp>* --> P.S. In case you are wondering "Hey, I don't have an iPhone, but want to help! What gives? Do you work for Apple or something?!?!!". Let me know that you are interested anyway. We have an Android version coming soon and there is a chance it will be available by then.

08 Aug '14

To all my 'AT Network Friends' ! (sorry if you've received this already - I guess that makes you a 'super friend'! J) INVITATION to COMMUNITY OPEN HOUSE You are invited to pop by and check out our Janice Lukes Campaign Office next Tuesday evening.

Richmond Mall West - look for the sign - yes, just before the Perimeter in the old LC! Enjoy ice-cream & refreshments, meet St. Norbert Ward residents - children are VERY welcome! No RSVP necessary - lots of free parking and bike parking if the rack arrives on time! You may be aware - I've registered as a candidate for the St. Norbert Ward in the upcoming civic election. I just couldn't do another election sitting around a table with many of you - planning how to 'educated' candidates on AT issues !! That and a combination of other situations have resulted in me realizing - 'never say never' - and motivating me to take this very bold step outside the normal comfort zone. If you have some free time on Tuesday - please pop by our Campaign Office Open House- check out my website - www.JaniceLukes.ca - and if you have more free time in the fall - I welcome any volunteer help. I know I can confidently say this from my past 14 years' experience - when elected - I know there will be no other elected official that will work harder than I will - to move forward active, accessible and age friendly transportation issues. Is this a call for your help in putting me on the other side of the table at city hall ?? - for sure it is. Ruthless self-promotion seems to be part of democracy - it is what it is.

WFP: Study to examine future of Arlington overpass (July31'14)
by Beth McKechnie 05 Aug '14

[How about converting the old bridge to a walking and cycling bridge?] Study to examine future of Arlington overpass102-year-old bridge not expected to last beyond 2020 By: Aldo Santin http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/study-to-examine-future-of-arlington… The skyline of the North End could be in for a major change. An engineering study will examine the replacement of the 102-year-old Arlington Street Bridge. Brad Neirinck, the city's bridge-planning and operations engineer, said the Arlington bridge isn't expected to remain standing beyond 2020 and options are being considered for its replacement. "Once we get closer to that date, we'll have to re-evaluate things and see if we can keep it going any longer than that," Neirinck said. Options under consideration include: - Taking down the old bridge and replacing it with a four-lane structure at the same location. - Expanding the McPhillips Street underpass as an alternative to the Arlington bridge. - A new bridge connecting McGregor and Sherbrook streets. The Arlington bridge was built in 1912. A major rehab, including new bridge deck, was carried out in 1992. Neirinck said the study will include a public-consultation process, which will help determine the old bridge's fate, what should be built in its place and in which order. "The study is mainly to look at traffic flows and is Arlington the best location for a replacement structure or is there something better?" he said. The RFP (request for proposal) for the 14-month, $1.5-million study was opened in June and closed at the beginning of July. The contract is expected to be awarded soon. Approval for the study was given by city council in late 2012 for inclusion in the 2013 capital budget. Neirinck said the study was delayed until this year. City council also tentatively set aside $2 million in the 2017 capital budget for preliminary design work. When the study is completed in late 2015, council will be presented with options on how to move forward along with cost estimates for each. aldo.santin(a)freepress.mb.ca Republished from the Winnipeg Free Press print edition July 31, 2014 B1

Cycling in Groningen, the Netherlands
by Patman, David 30 Jul '14

30 Jul '14

I was not familiar with this particular city -- check out the video that explains how auto use is discouraged (many auto trips take longer than cycling trips) which results in high bicycle mode split. Can you imagine such policies enacted here? http://www.cityclock.org/groningen-nowhere-will-find-cyclists/ David Patman, P. Eng.

Canada Missing the Boat on Bicycle Tourism
by Anders Swanson 27 Jul '14

27 Jul '14

Interesting Sunday reading; http://www.cbc.ca/m/news/#!/content/1.2717129/ [Anecdotal remarks. All around us, we can see harbingers of what is coming in future - which we can capitalize on or hinder, depending on our approach. Consider the new bike rental store up at the Forks. Consider the Fringe bringing a boost in the number of people walking and cycling downtown - already filling every bike rack in sight. Consider the importance of good signage and infrastructure for to those people -especially all the out-of-towners who either already chose to come here or who would - and consider what would happen if all folks knew that a week at the fringe meant a week cycling between venues and exploring the city. Consider the fact that in their closing remarks, one particular group of Columbian performance artists performing at the fringe mentioned "exploring Winnipeg by bicycle" as the main thing they would miss. Consider the potential of bicycle tourism as a social lubricant for just that one event and multiply that by every comic convention, Canada Day concert, football game, local street festival, German who wants to visit Canada and see both prairies and boreal forest, Winnipegger/Grandparent who wants their children (and esp. their children's children) to choose to visit Winnipeg on summer break... or perhaps just you and your family on any plain-old beautiful Sunday afternoon choosing to invest in an a locally-made ice cream cone instead of Netflix. Ironically, perhaps, even CBC inadvertantly underestimates the potential: there is one typo in the article; the figure for the money spent annually in Europe should read 64 billion, with a 'B', not million. See: http://www.eurovelo.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Economic-Benefits-of-Cyc… In short, we would be very wise to do better. Someone else tell Travel Manitoba and Tourism Winnipeg and the respective roads departments. I have been a "professional bike tourist" for so long lately, perhaps i am biased. -Anders]

Bicycle Safer Journey resource (FWHA)
by Beth McKechnie 24 Jul '14

24 Jul '14

FHWA releases Bicycle Safer Journey The Federal Highway Administration released Bicycle Safer Journey, a new tool to educate teens and children about safe bicycling behaviors. Bicycle Safer Journey is a free, online education tool designed to help educators, parents, and others who care about bicycle safety to get the conversation started with children and youth. The modules provide the information and education needed to help children and teens become safer bicyclists. The resource consists of three videos — one for each of three age groups: 5-9, 10-14, and 15-18 — accompanied by a quiz or discussion and an educator’s resource library. The tool can be used as an introduction to bicycle safety skills or to augment a comprehensive curriculum. The age-appropriate videos, which are available in English and Spanish, address picking the safest places to bicycle and the importance of being alert. Bicycle Safer Journey is the second part of FHWA’s effort to better inform children and teens about safe non-motorized travel. FHWA released Pedestrian Safer Journey <http://cts.vresp.com/c/?UNCHighwaySafetyRese/b502bf8f42/a153a5784b/d905b42c…> in 2013 to offer similar educational tools directed toward walking. To access Bicycle Safer Journey, go to www.pedbikeinfo.org/bicyclesaferjourney <http://cts.vresp.com/c/?UNCHighwaySafetyRese/b502bf8f42/a153a5784b/f99cfc27…> .
