Subject: [BIKEHUB] Perspective On Streets

Peter Ladner writes in Business In Vancouver about the remarkable change taking place in the world of Vancouver transportation.
 
People are learning about the immediate, real and personal benefits of active transportation.  And are finally putting real emphasis on those who use their feet to get around. His remarks on reaction from the Chattering Classes and the politically active to the newly proposed Burrard Bridge changes are instructive as signs of major decline in motordom's dominance, and the rise of new thinking about transportation.
 
It can't change fast enough for me; and this progress gives me hope that sanity may be slowly creeping into public life in Vancouver.
