I asked for them to be repainted and was told they had a study that it was safer not to. 113712
Alex @mplsalex.bsky.social · 12/10/2026“Nevertheless, when a citizen paints a crosswalk or builds a bench, whether as a stopgap as an act of protest, it can also exert a sort of “productive tension” on a city, said Lydon, one that can compel a static government to act much more quickly than it would otherwise” www.vox.com/future-perfe...vox.comWhat if making your neighborhood safer means breaking the rules?Neighborhood vigilantes are making their own crosswalks, bus stop benches, and DIY bike lanes.
