Kelly Drive in Fairmount Park has been engineered to remove most pedestrian crossings and amenities, to speed up traffic. A thread with 8 examples of things that have been lost, with historical images. South to north. 1. A staircase from the river trail to the Girard Ave Bridge, and Brewerytown:

A street view image showing how there's no pedestrian crossing near a staircase that's poorly maintained.

A historical image of a pedestrian path leading up to the Girard Ave Bridge.

Fairmount should be accessible to all, and it’s extra disappointing that we had better pedestrian access but the city hasn’t maintained it. Thank you for compiling this historical evidence. Please consider signing Philly Bike Action‘s petition for a safer park. bikeaction.org/campaigns/de...

Abolish the Pennsylvania state senate. A unicameral, proportional legislature is more efficient and egalitarian.

This is the main image Friends of Spruce and Pine has on their homepage: a car turning into a bike lane (that is filled with vehicles thanks to the illegal loading) while a child on a bike tries to cross the street. They are suing the city for adding loading zones and improving bike safety.

If Philly had just door dashers on bikes at the same rate as SF, it would remove more than 1 million vehicle miles from our streets per month. The costs in extra traffic delays and increased road maintenance are easily in the tens of millions. www.axios.com/local/philad...

axios.com

More than a third of DoorDash delivers are made via bikes

Philly's bike delivery rate actually lags many cities.

No, it's not hard to go out and buy native seed packs... after you research what's native (actually native, not just commonly found after being introduced), what's easy to grow (no cold stratification required), find a shop with your local ecotype, etc. This project has done that work for you! 🙌

"Say the city council decides to cut the budget & only pay for “direct” costs for fighting a fire. They’ll pay for the water in the hose, but not the gas in the truck. They’ll pay the salaries for the firemen, but not for the dispatcher who tells them where to go." Indirect cost cuts end research. 👇

A teacher emailed me & said "My scientist didn't reply to me. My scientists ALWAYS reply to me! What the heck!". I was like "Well. Science is kinda crumbling. Friends/colleagues are losing their jobs or at least funding, & some are being told to cease all outside communications". She hadn't heard.

People in my neighborhood are ALWAYS breaking a.10 (blocking curb cuts). I guess it doesn't seem like a big deal if you have never been in a wheelchair/had a friend in one, but it really is.

Daniel Penny acquitted after literally killing someone on camera for being disruptive on the train the same day a person of interest in the shooting of a shitbag healthcare exec gets grabbed pretty succinctly sums up who in this country is allowed to kill and who they’re allowed to kill.

Another important point: "I think one of my biggest concerns is driverless cars being misperceived as the silver bullet to all of our transportation woes, and the anticipation of driverless cars drowning out tried-and-true strategies to keep our transportation system safe and efficient."
