If Saskatoon can have bus lanes downtown, why can't we? #yyj #bctransit

From the Draft Victoria Regional Transit Plan "Implementing bus priority supports ridership and mode share goals through faster travel time for customers. At the same time, increasing bus speed will allow BC Transit to deliver transit services sooner and at lower cost." #yyj #bctransit

On Friday, we proved that even buses running ahead of schedule are still too slow. BC Transit, the City of Victoria, and the District of Colwood are the institutions that need to step up. Together, we will keep push for a better, safer, more reliable city. #yyj #racethebus

Can you outrun the 95 “Rapid” bus? On June 12 at 4:45pm, we are racing the bus from the Legislature to City Hall to highlight how Douglas St congestion slows transit to a crawl. Sign up to run, or be a cheerleader: actionnetwork.org/forms/volunt... #yyj #racethebus

“It is frustrating to see that we have a surplus from last year and we can’t turn around and use that money for this year,” says Sam Holland, chair of the transit advocacy group Better Transit YYJ. #yyj #transit

From the Draft Saanich Climate Plan. Owning and operating cars is expensive. Having more and better transit options saves people money. #yyj #transit www.saanich.ca/assets/Commu...

Huge thanks to the operators, mechanics, cleaners, dispatchers, and all the workers who keep Greater Victoria moving every day. Your care, patience, and professionalism make our community stronger. If you’re riding today, share a smile or a quick thank you. #ThanksTransit #YYJ

There's a lot BC can learn from in this excellent report. Perhaps most directly relevant for #yyj : we need to plan transit around our goals as a region, not around ideology. Also, we need to empower at least one set of decision-makers to actually build what we need as a region.

🎵Guess who's back, back again? QMP's back, tell a friend!🎵 Saanich votes Jan 19 on the Quadra–McKenzie Plan. Transit riders need faster, reliable buses now. Speak up: email council@saanich.ca or attend the meeting. Don’t let a small minority stall progress for thousands of daily riders.

Last week we got to see the first midday service on the 51, which runs UVic to the Westshore! Midday takes 30 min to go from Colwood to UVic, very comparable to driving. If you've ever taken it at rush hour you'll know it often takes 60 min or more. It's time to get these busses out of traffic!

Did you know that almost 40% of emissions in the CRD come from road transportation? Investing in transit to shift trips from private automobiles will be essential for decreasing these emssions. The CRD does not currently have a concrete plan around transit, but it must if we are to hit our targets.

Figure titled "Capital Region Emissions (2007 to 2022) and 2038 RGS Emissions Goal" from the CRD 2024 Climate Action Progress Report. Shows a stacked area chart with Waste, Other Transportation, On-Road Transportation, Building and Other Emissions. Data is from 2007 to 2022, with a trend line showing a 61% reduction target by 2038.
