We demand safe infrastructure. Where kids are crossing, they aren’t walking into a space for cars, drivers are entering a space for kids. Every crossing near a school should look like this.
A 15-year-old girl has serious and life altering injuries. Why did we not have a raised crosswalk or speed bumps? She and her family are experiencing something unfathomably awful. I need you to understand it was predictable and easily preventable. https://t.co/smtxnceFU3

As a West End resident, I love this idea, although I wish it extended further along Davie Street! https://t.co/xtA7bvvuS7

Here's some finer details on the concept design for Davie Village sidewalk widening 👇
As a regular of many "establishments" 🍻🪩 on Davie, I am really excited to see this move forward. Widened sidewalks for pedestrians proposed for Davie Village in @WestEndBIA via @DailyHiveVan

Reminder: King George Secondary, whose catchment is the whole Downtown Peninsula, is not seismically safe and is estimated to be 20-30 years away from a rebuild as part of the #WestEnd Community Hub redevelopment.
4/ Current status of secondary seismic safety in #EastVan: No plans at all for Gladstone and Britannia schools. No modern secondary schools at all in #EastVan since Tupper and Van Tech were seismic upgrades. David Thompson is next in line; let us hope it is a replacement.

It’s important to recognize how having inclusive programs centralized removes kids from their neighbourhood communities and creates barriers to access - especially during extreme weather or transportation disruptions.

We’re hoping to eventually get our bins moved to the car park on the other side of the school to reduce dump truck traffic on the AAA-rated Comox Greenway to make it safer for kids riding their bikes to and from school, but this is a huge improvement for now!

We’re so grateful to our VSB Trustee @victoriajungvan for helping us to get our bins corralled by curbs so they don’t block access to our bike racks or to Building A. Our Undercover Area looks so much better, in time for tomorrow’s Winter Market! Here are before and after photos:

Off-leash dogs are such a huge problem at Roberts Elementary that the PAC co-funded gates for our kids' playing field. Unfortunately this also excludes our kids from using it out of hours. We've tried everything else to keep irresponsible dog owners from ruining it. #WestEnd
