“…It’s time for people to start forming organizations to protect cyclists, transit riders, pedestrians, and yes — drivers — from car-centrism.

I’m not going to spend years writing to city council that I need a crosswalk where I live — I’m just going to paint it now.

I’m not going to wait years on hundreds of thousands of dollars for impact studies blocking traffic out of neighbourhood streets.

We need to just erect the barriers and bike lanes ourselves.

Erect the bus benches ourselves.

Shrink the streets ourselves.

There’s a long history of neighbours taking matters into their own hands.

We need to bring Tactical Urbanism back. …”

Thank you Randy for sharing photos of my Octagon Labyrinth in Budapest Park. After a summer’s worth of water filled Wading Pool Labyrinthing, My painted colours have faded enough and it’s time for a refresh, So that’s what I hope to complete before the snow falls.
