It is amazing how two way turn lanes are so important, even when there isn't any turns to be made or deliveries to be made. They take up soooo much space but a center lane planter like on Delridge then, "who needs a center turn lane"?!

I'll bet the drivers in Helsinki actually drive the posted speed limit. Here in Seattle physical, restrictions like speed bumps, bulb outs and street narrowing are the only ways to slow drivers down.

Ain't buying it. Support local businesses and progressive minded businesses like Alki Bike and Board instead. youtu.be/PRN51A1EnJ8?...

Just don't buy anything on the tariff list. Cool!

Stu Hennessey @alkistu.bsky.social · 15/11/2025
So we charge a tariff tax on the wealthier consumers and turn around and send $2,000 checks out to the low quantity consumers. This redistribution of wealth sounds like socialism.

JD Vance says AI will boost productivity because robots will do the jobs Americans don't want to do. With that logic, it's ok for AI to take jobs but God forbid a tax paying migrant worker should.

Did you notice the apron ramp at the West end of the fishing area has a pretty big lip up on each side of the lane. Potential problem. I will find it fix it report that as well next time through.

Really, 8 Dems voted with Trump for a continuing resolution that will end Obama Care. Schumer has got to go. I know Bernie is an Independent but he should be the minority leader and by 2026 the majority leader.

Thanks, however their last update was November 6th. I assume they are not tallying over the weekend. I think the mayor's race will be called by Tuesday.

Where in the digital universe do you get the latest and up to date local election results. My favorite local news @westseattleblog.com has been good at Seattle Mayoral results and King Co. I'm looking for state legislature.

Yes, R trip was a group formed years ago to do just that. I ride the old service road from the base of Highland Park Way It would make a good DIY gravel bike connection. There's another road grade beginning at Puget Blvd from West Marginal that ends up on SW Brandon St. What passage do you envision?

We always hear how great the sidewalks are in the Admiral Junction. They are! Walkability is safely crossing the streets. Regardless of abilities!

I hope to see the 72 street re-imagined bike and pedestrian corridor from Central Park to Riverside Greenway. Once completed it will be a legacy project.

When will the Dems hammer home the fact that Trump's tariffs are the biggest tax on working class and working poor in recent history. CJ Roberts thinks it is. komonews.com/news/nation-...

The reason we are advocating for walkability in the Admiral Junction is because of the speed of traffic not for sidewalk improvement.We have nice sidewalks but they all lead to a dangerous intersection. Walkability is when you can safely cross the street.

The $150,000 proposal for the Admiral Junction walkability needs your input to get into the final budget. Email council@seattle.gov. Best results in person at council chambers, Thursday @ 5:00. @westseaurbanism.bsky.social

I thought you might be. I will keep you posted on the progress and perhaps WSU would be able to provide input during the design phase.

Seattle Department of Transportation is setting aside 200,000.00 to work on a design to make walkability improvements to the Admiral Junction intersection in West Seattle. This is something championed by Alki Bike and Board to improve the out of car experience. @westseaurbanism.bsky.social
