NEW DATE – Jane’s Walks 2025: Streets for All – Rethinking Pedestrian Infrastructure – Sep 21

Join us for a Jane’s Walk exploring how urban infrastructure impacts pedestrian safety, comfort, and enjoyment in St. John’s. We’ll walk through key areas to examine crosswalk design, sidewalk conditions, traffic flow, and accessibility features—highlighting what works and what doesn’t. This is a participatory event: bring your observations, ideas, and walking shoes. Hosted by a member of Challenge Car Culture, this walk invites conversation about building a city that puts people first.
Jane’s Walks are a series of free community walks held annually to highlight the unseen, under-celebrated and unique stories in the cities where we live. This walk begins at the intersection of Pine Bud Ave and Rowan St. Parking is available in Churchill Square.

Watch the three city council candidate debates

In the last few days we have hosted or helped to host three debates among the candidates for city council in the upcoming election. Here are Youtube links to all three – each has automatically-generated transcripts of what was said.

Please watch to hear the candidates setting out their views on the issues affecting the city and share the links widely to residents in advance of the vote!
