This morning we gathered with friends, family, and neighbors to honor Blake. He was killed by a driver while riding on Fountain Avenue in West Hollywood. We will honor his memory by continuing to fight for safer streets for everyone.

Karen Bass plans to further abandon the city's responsibilities to its residents, scrapping all street and transportation projects except those directly related to upcoming megaevents. If the city can't provide the bare minimum to its residents, it should not be hosting the Olympics.

This is an outrageous policy change. Also, if you’re gonna do this then you gotta do it for drivers, too right? Given those are obviously far far more dangerous vehicles. nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/05/02/p...

Policy Change: NYPD Will Write Criminal Summonses, Not Traffic Tickets, for Cyclists - Streetsblog New York City
Quietly, the NYPD has changed policy and will now make criminal cases against cyclists who go through red lights, a change that will have predictable and unpredictable ramifications.

In LA we have our own Elon Musk, Ticketmasters's Fred Rosen, who is spending the few years that he has left on this planet doing all he can to block a much-need transit project that would better connect the valley to the rest of the city, with a station at one of the region's largest employers.

Private golf courses are bankrupting Los Angeles. Props 6 & 13 give colossal tax breaks to golf clubs and our tax dollars are subsidizing the operations of these exclusive enclaves. Let's compare assessed values of prominent golf courses and nearby properties. (thx @bribribribribribri.bsky.social)

This is how you confront a housing crisis: Cambridge ends exclusionary zoning by allowing 6-story multifamily housing citywide

Mexico City’s weekly 35-mile ciclovía was a sight to see. We rode from La Condesa to the historic center, and up and down Paseo de la Reforma. Super well organized and accessible. Nothing beats riding across the city with thousands of others, without a car in sight.

Seeing many opportunistic rent increases on LA Zillow. A lot of landlords have raised rents by precisely 9.9%, the maximum gouging allowed by CA law after a disaster. Also seeing way too many illegal 10%+ rent increases this week. Even noticed a fair bit of laughably immoral 60%+ price gouging.

The great folks at Le Great Outdoor in Santa Monica are delivering meals (by bike) to firefighters fighting the nearby Palisade fire. You can support them by purchasing a donated meal here: order.toasttab.com/online/le-gr...

Massive lack of leadership from most of LA City Council. "You will not solve our housing problems — you will not reverse patterns of segregation — if you leave single family neighborhoods completely untouched." - @shanedphillips.bsky.social

Facing need for more housing, LA's City Council votes to keep new apartments away from homeowners
The city needs to rezone for more than a quarter-million new homes. Elected leaders decided to block new housing in single-family neighborhoods.

Forest Lawn Dr is a key connector to Griffith Park, but it’s also a dangerous street where drivers regularly speed with impunity. The city has a plan to improve safety for all. Tell the Mayor and Council Office that you support this critical safety project! mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

The changes completed in Barcelona last year are stunning. Any city can do this.

“Road rage” is murder, and all too common in LA. Cager mentality kills.

Normally inaction at the level of local government is blamed on a lack of funding... but the city of LA has only spent a fraction of the $1.3B allocated to this year's efforts to address homelessness and build affordable housing. Over $500 million has gone unspent. homelessdashboard.lacontroller.app
