And here’s some thoughts on the topic. tinyurl.com/4n369cwk
Sitting by my window overlooking #Boston ‘s Comm ave and heard the pedestrian’s familiar angry shout towards a driver blowing thru a red light. Will Mass pass red light camera laws in ‘26 and will #Boston install them? @BostonGlobe @BostonBTD

Did you know Paris has a 5-Year Pedestrian Plan? - 300 million € to be invested by 2026 - 100 new hectares of pedestrian space - 100 more “streets for kids” - New focus on 0 pedestrian deaths #VisionZero - Longer pedestrian cross times geared to seniors Does YOUR city have one?
I just wrote a @theactionnet letter: Tell the @cityofcambridge City Council we need to prevent bicyclist deaths before they happen, both in and out of intersections. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/preven…

I’m heading to Florida today as their extreme abortion ban takes effect. Let's be clear: Donald Trump is to blame for the harm state abortion bans are doing to women every day in our country.
It’s #GivingTuesday2023 ! Are you supporting your community organizations working tirelessly to improve #walking #biking #Transit ? I’m supporting @walkridedays for their unique work with youth in cites like @cityofeverettma — bit.ly/GreenStreetsGT
