I am pro-safe but unsanctioned mobility behaviors. Firetrucks blocking the bike lane so you're biking on the sidewalk? No problem. Idaho stop? Great. Biking wrong-way and pushing right-way cyclists into the car lane? Insanely anti-social and wrong.

Online urbainsts have taught people that all ped buttons are bad and that taping them closed is good. They dont tell you that screws up TSP and negates all the other programming geared towards reducing pedestrian delay.

Someone illegally parked here at the intersection of Jersey/Columbus delay buses headed to Greenville, McGinley Sq and Bergen-Lafayette. Bus drivers can’t make a clean turn and drivers on NB Jersey need to back up and move to the right so the bus driver can maneuver past the illegally parked car.

Coastlines in the #NYC metro region are flooding today and over the weekend due to Nor'Easter Nolo. Our infrastructure -- even BRAND NEW NYC -- is not prepared for sea level rise. We aren't even well prepared for flooding from this Nor'Easter.
NYC Parks and Columbia University rebuilt this boat launch into the Harlem River about a year ago. It looks like it is maxed out today, about an hour off of the local high tide.this should be a ramp down to the water but it is flat and at risk of bowing upward.NYC Parks rebuilt this boat launch after Hurricane Sandy in 2012. It looks like it is maxed out right now and may break with the September 2026 Extratropical Cyclone / Nor'easter Nolo. The Henry Hudson Bridge and Harlem River are in the background. The tidal marsh of Inwood Hill Park has jumped its banks. A 20' wide park path is inundated. Several parks benches are in the water. NOAA Tides and Currents Timeseries for Sep 24-26, 2026 for The Battery, NYC. It shows minor to moderate flooding at high tide.

Remember, a lot of us who use regular citibikes have to share the same infrastructure with citi e-bikes. Most of us can’t afford to use the e-bikes all the time, and when we have to they are throttled and low powered. I feel much safer when these bikes aren’t going so fast.

@jimmybot.com I think if we are able to get those 10 minute frequencies on the light rail, and if we could get that for the WTC PATH line - It would really revolutionize our transit system and then really we could really start to think about planning around that.

This awful story of two high school girls killed by a truck driver who failed to yield and turned into them is awful. Worse is reporting emphasizing they were riding two on an electric citibike- as if a single kid on a traditional bike would’ve had any different outcome. This story gets it right.

I don’t understand what they mean by brt corridors, and how that will speed up buses. Based on my observations, drivers making right turns slow the buses down and even worse drivers will make right turns from the lane left of the bus lane. The other issue is cars blocking intersections.

NYC raised the value of travel lanes to outsiders coming in through congestion pricing but haven’t embraced Shoup by collecting on the value of their on street parking which is immense. Of 3 million curbside parking spaces, only about 80,000 are metered. Metering 1/4 could raise $1.2 B per CC.
