This words just tempted me to look at it.
It's all about public meeting to share information about designing streets and communities. There is bunch of files of plan to read before this meeting. Oh my god. I cant make it for tonight, however, i feel excited to look thorugh it thinking of Edmonton in future.
What will become of Edmonton?
Personally I hope the day will come when more bike with basket in front (mama-chari)is widespread in cycling street. Nothing to do with the plan?
I think...
The bridges over a beautiful river valley somehow cut flow in a whole town. Also On weekend, downtown is dead, while Whyte ave is active. Still car road has more priority than pedestrian on the narrow bridge. Make it more friendly for pedestrian and cyclist. Look at Holland,bike takes you most of everywhere. Or what if tourist can rent a cycle at one place and drop it off in the other, just like a rent a car?
Make a circulating barrier free route that will sit across the river. Set a theme, for example, "Healthy street" designed with the same pattern or ambience. Some parts are filled up with spots for rest associated with healthy such as foot massage store, natural food cafe. The plan of light up bridge could be part of this. Well what about winter? that's the another issue... again
I'll look through anyway as I don't know what question i should start with.
