Building Good

Rethinking road space - with Dana O’Born


Listen Later

If you head downtown in any major Canadian city you will see a lot of construction, and it is mostly large residential towers that are going up. That means more people living there, but the roads stay the same size. More residents, more cars, more traffic. So we have to rethink how we use those roads, and how we get people on to more efficient modes of transport. The cheapest, easiest alternative is the good old fashioned bicycle. Dana O'Born is the chair of the board of Cycle Toronto and a year-round cyclist. She’s here to talk about how construction can work better with cyclists to help us build better cities for users of every kind of transport.
