Bike/pedestrian networks don't take 30 years to build. Stop accepting those timelines in your community. The best practices have been proven & they already exist. Safety should already be the #1 priority. The ROI is unbeatable. The timeline is a moral document and it shouldn't be generational.

I don’t think people appreciate just how horrific the initial bus crash was too a drunk driver was speeding and plowed straight into a bus, killing two people. it’s almost a parody of how unsafe transportation is in LA, particularly in the valley where almost every street is just a mini highway

The WAR ON WALKING has taken many forms around the world. It’s often as simple as how we signal who space is and isn’t for. Once our eyes are opened to all the ways we’ve prioritized cars over people, we can’t unsee it. Frustrating photo contributed by @stadsplanering.bsky.social. #WarOnWalking

Background photo from North Macedonia, where “sidewalks are mostly used to park cars” as explained by photo contributor Carl-Henrik Barnekow. Text says “Don’t buy the lie that there’s a war on cars. They’ve been waging a war on walking for a century.” Via the Urban Truth Collective. #WarOnCars #UrbanTruth

Chronic elevator problems at Bergenline for many years now. We were shuttled by bus to Tonnelle Ave station where the stairs are unavailable. Oh and the countdown clocks are offline at Tonnelle so no idea when the next train is. @customeradvocate.bsky.social @hudcostreets.org

This is a must-read and hits on so many key issues related to e-bikes specifically and micro-mobility broadly. Draconian e-bike laws like the one in New Jersey threaten the mobility and freedom of nondrivers, but our country refuses to consider them amid this intensifying moral panic (or ever).

👋🚆Quick question riders! I 've never been a fan of the term "DepartureVision" for NJ TRANSIT real-time train departure signs, especially as we use "MyLightRail" and "MyBus" for other modes. What about you? Would you rather keep DepartureVision or switch to MyTrain? Let me know!

Checked out the progress for the Flatbush Ave centre running bus lanes. There’s really only two blocks and one “station” completed. Saw a very efficient use of them by an emergency vehicle. That should be a good enough argument for bus lanes.

A concrete platform for the bus in between car traffic and the bus on the left, a shelter, orange construction dividers and traffic in the distant on the left.

A dug up street with organfe plastic barriers on either side. Car trafficking head south on the right. The barclay center in the background.

My favorite proposed Meadowlands trails access project is the long-standing plans to connect the Tonnelle Ave HBLR station to the Meadowlands Exposition Center and the surrounding commercial district. Increase HBLR access & ridership and provide a missing link between Secaucus and North Hudson.

Officially reopened last month, Utrecht's Park Paardenveld has been reimagined as a climate-resilient, people-focused public space. While the park itself first emerged from the restoration of the Catharijnesingel, its redesign turns leftover urban space dominated by cars into a true community park.🧵

People of all ages and abilities walk, cycle, and sit in Park Paardenveld, a newly-redesigned urban park along Utrecht’s Catharijnesingel that features vegetation, trees, benches, lighting, and walking and cycling paths.
