Yet another DC 🏳️‍🌈. Talk to me about trains, bikes, and walkable cities.

Huge loss for the DC area, especially for folks who infrequently drive. It’s unfortunate that DC Council never seemed to fully embrace car-sharing as a way to complement transportation options in the district and reduce private car ownership. It should have been incentivized à la Capital Bikeshare.

A lot to dunk on Amy for here, but the idea that a relationship can only be “sexual” if he can get it up and there is PIV is the kind of thing I’d expect someone cancelled by the MeToo movement to say.

Oof. Car-sharing regrettably continues to shrink in the DC area. Now Free2Move is ending its Arlington zone. Car-sharing availability is a great way to get car owners who infrequently drive to give up their cars. We should be working to expand it.

Safety is obviously an important reason to pursue Platform Screen Doors, but crucially this also allows WMATA to significantly increase service frequency, speed, and reliability with the same number of train sets. That’s a big win for unlocking new capacity on the crowded red line.

The introduction of European-style outdoor dining to American cities is one of the very few good things to come from the pandemic and Mayor Bowser’s parting gift was to kill it completely.

It’s past time for DC to ditch individual wheelie bins in its densest neighborhoods and embrace European-style containerization. Fewer blocked sidewalks, alleys, and bike lanes and more efficient and easier pickup for sanitation workers. Cc: @brianneknadeau.bsky.social

Washington, DC became a leader in the US a few years ago when it began charging heavier cars a bigger registration fee to offset road damage. Next, we should tackle the impact larger cars have on parking. The longer your car, the more curb you take for yourself, the higher your parking permit fee.

Same general counsel who torpedoed Silverman days before her 2022 race (& lost unanimously on appeal) just dropped a half-assed report on JLG. Riddled with typos, impossible timelines, and internal drafting notes. Both times the beneficiary is McDuffie. Just incompetence or an in-kind contribution?

The ongoing issues with 311 are a perfect encapsulation of Mayor Bowser’s administration: no urgency to fix what’s broken, no accountability for agency leadership, poor communication with the public, and disinterest in improving the status quo. Government can and should work better than this.

Throwback to when DC unveiled their Vision Zero license plate in 2022. This was my 5 minute attempt back then (I am not a graphic designer) - Replaced Lycra rider w/ a typical cyclist - No more bloody red - Replaced “Share the Road” sign which is no longer used - Used the actual fucking DC skyline

The whole “white people need to understand that people need CARS” narrative is so funny because white Americans actually own the most cars! People of color have far lower car ownership rates. A transportation system built around mandatory car ownership disproportionately hurts people of color!

turns out it was a bit of a whoopsie to focus on low level j6 rioters rather than throwing the ring leaders in jail immediately and tossing the keys. oh well, better luck next time!

A system where Republicans can do whatever the fuck they want no matter how vile but Democrats are bound by the tiniest of technical details does not feel like democracy to me

Republicans mad about yesterday’s VA election “disenfranchising rural voters” are the same ones who openly block DC Statehood. I wonder what’s different 🤔

What a stark contrast to DDOT’s Sharon Kershbaum. Despite the research, DC routinely caves to business owners worried about parking. We’ve watered down or eliminated entire bike projects (not to mention destroyed our outdoor dining program) to preserve parking even though the city knows better.

Absolutely insane that the part of the new pedestrian connection between Crystal City and DCA over the National Park Service right-of-way is going to be uncovered and unprotected from the elements because NPS is worried about obstructing scenic views for *drivers* along the parkway.
