Hello! I'm August. This is my space for all my ideas, observations, and thought-out perspectives related to transit, urbanism and cities. Supported by maps, diagrams, and data.
I work as a community planner for TTCriders, a grassroots non-profit organization for better transit in Toronto; I'm also a transit researcher at CityUX. Any of the opinions/perspectives I share here are my own, and are not necessarily stances of these organizations unless stated otherwise. \

Toronto's transit system has undergone a transformation, but TTC and Metrolinx maps have yet to adapt to how riders use and experience the system.
I've created a Toronto transit map presents higher-order transit in a more consistent manner reflecting all of the different options Torontonians have to move across the city on fast and frequent transit, whether subway, light rail, buses, or regional trains.
Canada needs to move away from US-borne policies of public disinvestment, artificial scarcity, and car culture that have paved over cities and left many people at the curb. Here are four pieces that are necessary to fix, strengthen, and build public transit to keep Canada moving into a resilient future divergent from the United States.
Join Fern and I as we explore Kitchenloo and use the ION LRT! In this video, we review the design features of the LRT line with respect to accessibility, routing, service, station features and fare payment.Â
In addition, we talk about how the LRT works in conjunction with GRT's overall bus system to provide useful transit, and how this can be a model for building successful, integrated LRT in small to medium-sized cities in North America. Subscribe to transitplant while you're here!
