Connecting Transportation and Livable, Resilient Communities

Room to Move, Room to Grow: Key insights from transit professionals

We partnered with Movement to support this free event.

Movement invited two transit professionals from Seattle and New York (Dongho Chang and Kate Elliott) to share how transit priority projects like bus lanes can transform cities.  

Vancouver's buses are PACKED. So why don't we have more bus lanes?

"Buses move eight times more people than cars typically do" - Kate Elliott

Beyond Electric Vehicles discussion paper

We collaborated with ACT – Action on Climate Team and Moving in a Livable Region to publish ‘Beyond Electric Vehicles’ — a discussion paper emphasising the imperative of thinking together to reach our climate goals.

The discussion paper explores the opportunities of more holistic approaches—beyond zero-emission vehicles— to reduce B.C.’s transportation emissions. Opportunities include more efficient, less car-reliant land uses in our cities and communities with more multimodal, equitable transportation options. The paper also seeds discussion about key challenges to their development.  

This discussion aims to seed and support conversations to form a common understanding of our challenges and to build shared paths forward.
