I know I've said this a million times, but we should look to Vancouver as an example of the right way to segregate bikes from pedestrians, at least for the long distances like along the canal and parkways, along with new complete neighborhoods (LeBreton Flats).

Drove by Elgin and Laurier the other day, and a Bird Scooter was parked pretty much at the crosswalk. I don't know if this is a regular occurrence, but it could be (a very predictable) issue.

I'm also disappointed in the branding. Plain black scooters with a plain white sticker that says "BIRD". Doesn't really stand out.
