The Voter, a long-time Bulldog commenter, gives Knoxdale-Merivale Councillor Sean Devine a less in transportation:

Maybe Councillor Devine needs to understand that cars and transit aren’t an either-or situation.

You can have both at the same time by setting up transportation systems that allow cars, buses and even bicycles to co-exist. There are places that can only be accessed by a car in this town and there are places where transit (when it’s operating) is more efficient. In order to develop those systems that work together, you have to do a thing called planning, something this city does atrociously if at all.

Councillor Opts For Noversight: WHOPPER WATCH

Given the ward he represents, it’s surprising he doesn’t know how people get from place to place. He also should be aware that, without “free-flowing traffic”, buses can’t get around the city. Trains, buses and automobiles are interdependent and residents use them all to get around.
