Does anyone know about the Adelaide O Bahn busway in Australia? I think something like this would be good for the Island. I don't think a similar project to SkyTrain would be feasible for the Island and all the stations required would kind of destroy the landscape and lushness of the Island. But if something like the Adelaide O Bahn busway was created where buses can go from street to track in certain areas, it could be quite impactful for the people of the Island and tourists. The buses could have their own busway and travel much faster than the vehicular traffic. Thoughts?

Victoria police are searching for a man accused of following a girl and making inappropriate comments during a suspicious encounter near Blanshard Street and Hillside Avenue.

With Halloween approaching, police are encouraging parents and caregivers to discuss personal safety with children before they head out trick-or-treating.

Police said the youth involved in the incident took appropriate steps to protect herself by leaving the situation and returning to safety.

VicPD recommends children travel with friends or trusted adults whenever possible, remain aware of their surroundings and identify safe places to seek help, including nearby businesses or trusted neighbours.

Hey Locals, whats the best time to see salmon swimming upstream in Gold Stream park?

Title: How is it living at The Dalmatian (1021 Johnson St)?

Hi everyone! My family and I are planning to move into The Dalmatian, and we have a toddler. I have a few questions for current or former residents:

Safety: Any issues with theft, security, or unauthorized visitors?

Smoking and drug use: Any problems around the building or in common areas?

Noise: How loud are the fire trucks and ambulances, especially on the higher floors with windows closed?

Management: Is Pacifica Housing responsive to residents’ concerns?

Our unit is on the 9th floor, facing Yates Street. Any honest feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi all, I lost a green jade necklace sometime around October 16/17th. It's incredibly special to me, as I received it from my great grandmother. If anyone may have found it, I'm absolutely desperate to see it returned. It could be around the Saxe Point area, or may have been located on a bus. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you find it, thank you all!

is anyone going to the 90’s themed event at capital ballroom and wanting to meet with my partner and I?!

can anyone explain why there are 5000 nubo’s of different kinds in victoria? is it a scheme?

Anyone want to join me downtown on Friday night or Saturday?

I havent celebrated Halloween in Victoria in a few years the last time i went out was to hermans upstairs! Where are the Halloween parties for adults this year? Whats worth checking out!?

There’s around a dozen cop cars surrounding a bus, maybe a 75 at the bus stop. And now an ambulance just went in that direction. They got everyone off the bus. I’ve never seen these many cop cars all at once

I know this is not a sellers market but I’m hoping to potentially try and sell my 1 bedroom condo in Langford. I’m wondering if anyone has any realtor recommendations? :)

We have recently moved to Victoria, James Bay Area, and have two small children. We are also new to Canada from the UK, I’m just wondering what the trick or treating etiquette? Do you only trick or treat places with decorations/pumpkins? Or certain streets?
Any help would be appreciated 🎃

My first time visiting Victoria very beautiful island indeed, already love it in the first day.

But I got a question: why everybody drive so fast even downhill speed restrictions are there, make me so nervous every time driving on the road😭

Finally found European style hot chocolate.
We saw a recommendation for this wonderful place on Reddit and decided to give it a try. My Wife has been raving about hot chocolate that she had in Spain 20 years ago. They did everything they could to replicate it and they got it bang on. I had a more traditional hot chocolate and I will say as a 59-year-old that that is the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had.

Service and quality are amazing Second to none honestly, you have nothing to lose by trying this place. Also great to support a local business.

I am new to the area. I’ll do my best to describe location. It is in the quality foods on the second floor in the eagle creek plaza

There's a lot of restaurant closures in the past few years but there's still some expensive places that are still open that aren't just for rich fat cats but maybe not a routine place for regular people to eat at unless you want something fancy. According to reviewers, these are considered the most expensive in Victoria. Have you eaten any of these places?

Hi!

Hoping to visit the Carmanah valley and was curious about the status of the road(s)?

I read that Rossander main was cleared and good to go back in September but I was wondering if this is still the case as Google Maps seems to think otherwise.

Also curious if any south access (Port Renfrew) goes right now.

Cheers!

If anyone has an extra ticket or can’t go last minute I am super interested in going. THX!!!!

This person spent time with Jesse saving animals (and people, of course) in Ukraine.
I dunno guys, I'm just really sad about this. He was a hell of a dude.

Hello from Ontario. Will be in Victoria for October 2027 for the Victoria Marathon

Considering to stay near the start line at James Bay Inn Hotel & Suites at 270 Government Street, Victoria, BC, V8V 2L2

Is this area a good area to be in? suggestions? of good access? prices

I’m just gutted by this horrendous news. Jesse was a true warrior for dogs and cats. Such a monumental loss for the animals, the Ukraine, and Victoria too. His heart was bigger than his fear and he walked the talk. May his legacy of love move others to help and may it live on. My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and loved ones.

Thought I'd post this from someone who has had to get into the gritty details of insurance coverage. Perhaps it's a good idea to check your coverage.
