Like California, BC has a VKT / VMT reduction target in our climate plan. We need road space reallocation to meet our climate targets. Great article about Traffic Evaporation by @alextburns.bsky.social #climatesky #bcpoli #cleanbc

As progress on climate goals falters, it is time for state transportation leaders to come to terms with an inconvenient truth: climate goals are not feasible without a swift and methodical reallocation of road space away from cars.

Next week is Design Week. If you live near Olson Memorial Highway, don't miss this opportunity to share a meal with fellow community members and shape a collective vision for the corridor's future—one rooted in repair, reconnection, and community ownership. www.ourstreetsmn.org/event/design...

What a tremendous evening put together by @thewaroncars.bsky.social and @ourstreetsmn.org tonight in Minneapolis. Fantastic panel of Minnesotan leaders discussing how to build campaigns to tear out urban freeways. Make it a point to listen to the recording when it comes out in the weeks ahead.

High school student Nurah Muhammed testified in support of the Highway Justice Act earlier this month, referencing the construction of I-94, and that, "unfortunately, it isn't just history." @mndot.mn.gov www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBvs...

"I am pleased to introduce SF 817. This bill will enhance community engagement and strengthen planning processes to ensure that highway investments are environmentally conscious, fiscally responsible, and reflective of the priorities of local communities." - @omarfatehmn.com

I’m so excited about this news! As a Senator, Omar Fateh has always fiercely advocated for solutions at the scale and time frame that our communities need. He’s built diverse coalitions and passed progressive policies that others gave up on. I have no doubt that he’d do the same as Mayor

Love this little guy

Last Friday, MnDOT held a meeting of the Rethinking I-94 Policy Advisory Committee (PAC). The meeting included fiery discussion from elected officials. We've created a recap & linked the full recording here: www.ourstreetsmn.org/2024/11/12/m... I want to highlight some noteworthy clips🧵

“While putting a highway underground can seem an intuitive solution to reconnect the communities above… the reality is that such projects often become, at best, a form of “greenwashing” and, at worst, Trojan horses for further highway expansion.”

It was a late Monday night but I caught the northern lights at Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge 🌌
