HRM is aware of data showing that, even for public transit, road widening won’t reduce traffic.

Better Choices  ❤️ Better Transit! Spend public money on signalized lane changes (i.e. MacDonald Bridge, Chebucto Road, Herring Cove Rd); buses; ferries; drivers; lower fares; shelters; a Mumford Terminal; public safety. Protect 40-70 affordable homes in a unique historic neighbourhood of First Nations, youth shelters, co-ops, heritage, affordable housing, business.

Save the 80 historic trees that slow traffic, reduce noise, calm drivers, clean air,  give shade & beauty. Remind HRM: it is not a done deal.
Ask friends & neighbours to: 
1. sign the petition and
2. send this letter to the Council
3. tells others / use social media

(1) HRM April 24^th TSC Report estimates road construction for 2029 (ish) to be $170m but as costs have inflated at an extraordinary fate from $53m in 2022 to $73m in 2023 for land acquisition alone, FHC believes the construction cost will be closer to $200M.

THIS DOES NOT seem to INCLUDE COSTS FOR BRT – ONLY ROAD WIDENING.
