Spoiler alert: It’s the infrastructure.

From Scientific American: “frosty winters, scorching summers and ample precipitation (are) not a major barrier to high walking and biking rates”

The study’s lead author: “It’s not that Dutch people are genetically predisposed to cycling; it’s that most Dutch cities have really good infrastructure for cycling… If it were quicker and safe to walk or bike to their kids’ school or to the store or to work, then (we) would do that just as much as anyone else.”

Last year, car crashes cost us nearly $5 million dollars a DAY in claims. And Autopac paid out more than $200 million just for injuries alone.

When people worry about the cost of safer streets improvements, and whether or not we can afford things like bike lanes or curb bump-outs, these are some of the existing costs that are never part of the conversation. Doing nothing is expensive!

’s 2024 Annual Report was released today. Despite ongoing pressures, such as rising claims costs, global tariffs, inflation, and shifting political dynamics, MPI’s financials are being stabilized with a focus on delivering value, protecting affordability, and maintaining the trust of Manitobans in times of economic uncertainty. Full report at mpi.mb.ca.
