We need to focus on reducing speeds, not just speeding. We have too many roads posted at 30mph+. ~Bill Nesper @BikeLeague #FloridaBikeSummit

B/c one more lane will fix traffic, right? While this is bad, most federal $ has always gone to highways. We prob need to localize funding. This is also hard bc states control revenue raising. How do we get local control of local $$$? #strongtowns

Day 3 of #WeekWithoutDriving! This pretty normal day for me, would be nearly impossible for many Americans because of how we build our communities. For others driving isn’t an option no matter how poor the conditions. We can do better! @americawalks.bsky.social #bikewalkcfl

It’s comparatively easy for a car driver to make up time lost after a signal. Not so much for people walking and biking. Make signals shorter or get rid of them. Based on a few days of walking #Providence (and watching behavior), I think the city could do with fewer. #CNU33 #urbanism #bikewalk

Slender streets can save many lives. To get them, buy better fire engines… opticosdesign.com/blog/if-you-...

If You Want Safe Streets, Buy a Better Fire Engine - Opticos Design
If you want safe streets, you need to buy fire engines that fit on safe streets. The same goes for ladder trucks, foam tenders, HazMat rigs, and other fire department vehicles.

There are 10 traffic deaths for every fire death. Have a policy that whenever your city replaces a fire response vehicle, buy one that can navigate smaller streets. ~ @siegman.biz #cnu33

“…disabled people are actually less likely to drive than nondisabled people and more likely to get around by walking and rolling and taking transit. Car-heavy cities are also disproportionately dangerous for disabled folks…” @nondriver.bsky.social in @motherjones.com #Accessibility
motherjones.com
Do car-free zones hurt disabled people? We asked experts.
City planners and advocates are seeing "accessibility used as a political football."

This highlights the need for #ZoningReform, multi-gen neighborhoods, and probably also some #KonMari. When we limit density and prohibit du/tri/multiplexes/ADUs, the market maximizes profits with bigger housing instead housing for more families. futureofwhere.substack.com/p/a-shortage...

A Shortage Of Housing And A Glut Of Bedrooms
We complain constantly about a lack of affordable housing. But there are 137 million spare bedrooms in the United States. We should make at least a few of them available for their intended purpose.

I used to think people smiled at me because it was novel to see someone #bikikg in a skirt. But people have been smiling at me all day and I’m wearing pants. I guess people just like bikes. #orlando

A pro-community culture is as least important as better regulations. How do we restore a culture that says yes to neighbors, yes to proximity, yes to child-friendly spaces, yes to diversity of options, yes to long-term benefits?
