This is a BRT in the suburbs of Busan, South Korea. 2 middle lanes are dedicated to buses and the 2 outer lanes are for general motorised traffic. The current layout for 22nd Street W in @cityofsaskatoon.bsky.social Saskatoon is of a similar layout (With the exception of the BRT/ Bus lanes).

This is an idea for developing Westgate plaza in #Saskatoon based upon the assumption that there will be a zone change to CS1 in the near future. (AI generated). Having a stairwell which is not heated or cooled but is protected from the elements i.e rain and snow should save on energy costs.

Getting rid of waste in Busan, South Korea. It details when, what will be picked up. Recyclables, general waste, organic waste, etc. It does not matter whether you live in a house or apartment, you seem to have to use the same bag. Would this work in @cityofsaskatoon.bsky.social?
