I'm a big fan of Philly Bike Action's approach to street safety advocacy. They use kindness & fun as a tool, hosting 'parties' with music or giving out free soft pretzels. At the same time they're unafraid to push hard for timely actionable change. billypenn.com/2026/04/14/p...

Can PPD & @mayorparker.bsky.social ask officers to keep the new City Hall bike lane clear? Penn Square is not a place where you want people on bikes to have to go out into mixed traffic!

Half of business owners on this Toronto street estimated that more than 25% of their customers arrived by car. In fact, it was 4%. And the % of customers who who walked or cycled? 72%. Retailers routinely overestimate the # of “car customers.” Via @carltonreid.com www.forbes.com/sites/carlto...

A driver ran a red light and nearly hit a cyclist. This was all caught on video, including the color of the stoplights and license plate. Philadelphia police officer was unwilling to even take a report. No driver accountability unless someone gets hurt or killed? @bikeaction.org @bcgp.bsky.social

🤯 I'm still in shock from tonight's OTIS Open House in Philly. How can anyone be against the 3rd St. Bike Lane? One woman in particular. In the guise of protecting pedestrians, she made it very clear she was really there to attack bikers. #stophate @bcgp.bsky.social @bikeaction.org @5thsq.org

SOME of our neighbors think finding a parking spot is worth more than the lives of you or I 🤬 Sign the petition: www.5thsq.org/protect_spru...
Image of a flyer from the "Friends of Pine and Spruce" complaining about the city's plan to increase loading zones on Spruce and Pine streets. The flier is titled "You don't really need to park here, do you?"

Overlaid is text from Philly Bike Action with a link to the Concrete Now petition, and info that   Loading Zones increase parking turnover all day without removing overnight parking.

Frustrating that Amazon finds 5-foot wide mini trucks necessary in New York, but when it comes to Philadelphia and literal 26-foot wide cartways with parking on both sides, a regular delivery trucks is totally fine

“Every $1,300 New York invested in building bike-lanes in 2015 provided benefits equivalent to 1 additional year of life at full health over the lifetime of all city residents, according to a new economic assessment.” Bike-lanes are a sound public health investment. www.reuters.com/article/busi...
