paint bus lanes everywhere and expand enforcement to all of them and metro will never have a budget crisis again
basin.la
LA’s bus lane cameras issued $42.8 million in fines last year
The streets where tickets were recorded cover an estimated 31 miles. The program now accounts for nearly a quarter of the city’s parking fines.

Small wins: DART amended its TX legislative priorities to “closely monitor” for bills that would increase funding to public transportation! We were aiming for “support” but getting the issue onto the page at all is a W in my book. Thanks to @thedotcity.bsky.social for moving for the amendment!

This is tragic. It's even more tragic knowing JTA has spent the last decade lavishly spending on a dysfunctional autonomous vehicle program of questionable value, that the public has shown little interest in using. For its troubles, Jacksonville gets to watch CEO Nat Ford pack his bags for Dallas.

DART has announced its state fair service plans for 2026. On State Fair weekends and Monday, October 12th, the Orange Line will run from DFW Airport to Buckner. Additional changes include longer trains, hourly bus shuttles from outlying transit centers, and weekend TRE service.

earlier i encountered an ai agent of some kind who seemed to sense my presence the instant i walked into the room. that was unsettling enough, but what happened next terrified me: it wrote a song, suggested i play it "note for note," and, when i expressed worry, told me not to worry but "be happy"

Are you tired of bought and paid for politicians? Sick of getting a raw deal? You're not alone. That's why we created Bribe.ly, an open marketplace where you can sell your vote to the highest bidder. Now you too can benefit from political graft one vote at a time!

Someone who got a ticket to the RNC midterm convention next week says they’ve been told they must park in Grand Prairie and take the “GOP Express” shuttles to AAC. In fact, you can’t even get your ticket unless you show up at Lone Star Park first. gopconvention.com/ga-guest-gui...

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.

Over the past week, a flurry of speculation and criticism has surrounded DART's choice for its new CEO. But why is Dallas drawn to such a controversial candidate, and what does it have to do with an "Ultimate Urban Circulator"? My latest for @dmagazine.bsky.social: www.dmagazine.com/frontburner/...

(2) [Audience pictured listening] PERSON 1: Therefore, we are abolishing the *spring* time change *only*. We’ll gain an hour every year, but never lose one.

idea i just had: instead of traffic lights working automatically, they could have a little pull cord that hangs over the middle of the intersection. so whenever you want to change the light you can just get out of your car and walk out there and pull the cord. that could be cool

Objective design standards such as this one might make buildings more expensive and more difficult to build, but you cannot deny that they also make cities uglier and worse to live in.

In my experience, one of the reasons "brain gender" is such a persistent gremlin even in ostensibly progressive spaces is many folks REALLY wish there was bioessentialist framework of gender that's compatible with the reality of trans people existing, and that falls apart if brain gender isn't real.
