It is out of control that drivers just ignore stop signs at literally every intersection, especially near the train station. This is such a failure, from the horrible street design, to the normalizing of reckless driving, to the lack of adequate enforcement by City of Peekskill Police Department.

Note that nhtsagov has *direct* control over vehicle design. If we’re getting increasingly bigger blind spots in ever-larger cars (we are) it’s because NHTSA isn’t regulating their design to ensure people outside of cars can be seen by drivers.

Because Eric Adams lifted the Uber/Lyft cap instituted in 2018 by Bill de Blasio to curb congestion and economic hardship caused by unfettered for-hire vehicle growth in the 5 years prior

HAPPENING NOW: Governor Kathy Hochul signing Sammy’s Law, which would allow NYC to set it own speed limits without needing Albany’s approval.

Speeding kills. Now we can do something about it.

New housing belongs in places like this — near transit and in walking distance of stores.

More of this, less of the whole housing on former farms nonsense

ODOT is making it explicit:

their multi-billion dollar freeway expansions are exorbitantly expensive, have spiraling costs, and are robbing Oregonians of the money we need for safer streets, backlogged maintenance and transit investments.

Hudson River Sloop Clearwater is fighting to stay afloat. If it doesn't raise $250k in 2 months, it could go under, its director said.

I boarded the iconic sloop to observe an education sail, collect crew stories & talk to leaders about how it got here.

Every community in needs more housing. Instead of making builders add big/expensive car parking, we should have builders provide transit passes.

Gets Bee Line $ needed to boost service. Residents get free transport. Win Win!

We had such a great tour with Transit Alliance Miami today we neglected to take any good photos.

But give them a follow here or on insta to see an advocacy org that's doing great work--including leading engagement on Miami's bus network redesign.

2014 when the Sammy’s Law movement began vs today when Sammy’s Law was signed into law! I played a microscopic role, but the fight played a huge role in my advocacy journey. I didn’t know in the 2014 pic where my family is next to Amy Cohen’s that the campaign would shape me.

Scenes from today’s Walk & Roll to School Day. Empty car drop-off lane and FULL bike racks. Sounds of music, laughter and birdsong. Mini meetups from around the neighborhood. EVERY day could be like this!

I was walking on Blake today marveling again at the stupidity of the protected bike lane closure and I had this thought:

If ever we get someone testing ground delivery robots in Denver I bet that thing opens up right quick.

We are in the stupidest timeline.

My thoughts, in the latest Listener about walking & cycling infrastructure and how it’s our kids that miss out as the govt cut these budgets.

So much time is spent fighting against spending on these projects when, only 1% of our transport budget is dedicated to walking cycling.

Day 3 of on Miami Beach! Thanks to all who participated in our mobile workshops, saw one of the most successful shared-use paths in the country, debated challenges and opportunities, and rode protected bidirectional cycle track.

You ever think about how completely unstoppable NJ would be if we zeroed out OUR highway-widening budget and used that to invest in expanding NJ Transit service, improving our transit tech & infrastructure, and giving south Jersey more transit options?
