@SenatorShaheen Two new bills from @SenMarkey and @SenFettermanPA would help end our street safety crisis. Please support the Complete Streets Act and Building Safer Streets Act. @T4America t4america.org/2024/02/13/let…

The @opry is hosting Jason Aldean at a fundraiser for the Covenant School in Nashville. One would think there are many other country music artists they could invite instead?

We sometimes criticize transit projects that cost $50k per rider or more, but @PANYNJ is spending $635k per parking space at JFK. This is hugely wasteful! We call on Port Authority to cancel this project and redirect the funds to PATH and JFK AirTrain. x.com/urban_dispatch…

Flashback: The Trump campaign orchestrated the fake electors scheme. Stephen Miller: “Today, an alternate slate of electors in contested states is going to vote, and we’re going to send those results up to Congress. This will ensure that all of our legal remedies remain open.”

Yes. Why does our town have wide crossings and center turn lanes in low volume roads? Why are there even questions about counting pedestrians before installing a safe crossing at a bus stop and where families need to cross the street to get to the one sidewalk?

@HanoverNHPolice thank you so much for supporting safer speeds and infrastructure - I read a story from another 1st responder today that reminded me how important this and your work is and how you are helping our town with these issues

Twitter hasn’t heard the story of how I, an SUV owning EMT, became the safe streets advocate I am today. 🧵 I became an EMT in late 2018. I owned and drove an SUV, and was pretty ambivalent about infrastructure and safe streets (sometimes maybe even skeptical).

I keep meeting parents who've lost beautiful bright children w lives just beginning to unfold. Yesterday I met Alek's dad, a thoughtful man devastated by the loss of his young adult son. Alek was struck by an SUV driver while cycling. We've tolerated road fatalities far too long.

Our @SmartGrowthUSA Board Member Patrice Frey, and our fave collaborator @NatlMainStreet, nail this piece! The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund is a great opportunity to realize the benefits of focusing on reuse and location-efficient buildings!

As I say periodically: the Manhattan bike network, for all its imperfections, is an order of magnitude better than it was a decade ago

@Streetfilms Great use of their time... I mean what else could a DOT be doing? There's so little to do in the world of transportation. Everything basically just works.

New study of e-bike rebates finds that the average recipient reduced their CO₂ emissions by 12-44 kg/month. That's roughly equivalent to 30-110 miles/month of driving. Not too shabby! doi.org/10.1016/j.tran…
