I am in the McGrath Highway -> Boulevard project meeting for the 25% design presentation. You can join me here: www.mass.gov/event/somerv... 1/?

That feeling when @thewaroncars.bsky.social compliments your design

Wow this is bad.

Almost half the Waymos on California streets are driving around empty. They're either waiting for the next customer or en route for a pickup. If robotaxis scale, anything close to that level of deadheading would create crushing gridlock. www.thedriverlessdigest.com/p/what-cpuc-...

Grass in #CopleySquare. And they said it couldn’t be done. @universalhub.com

⚠️System Alert: The system is currently experiencing a temporary disruption and you may be unable to unlock a bike. We are working to get the issue resolved as soon as possible.

#CarlBarronPlaza making good progress: new curb line (along new separated bike lane and new bus stop) and new seating being installed @cambridgemass.bsky.social

Had a pretty frustrating experience. What started out as a polite conversation with a contractor blocking a bike lane turned to swearing and name calling (not by me). He was right next to ample, available loading space.

@ridebluebikes.bsky.social donates $1 to the Ellie Fund for every “pink bike” ride taken

New mast arms and signal equipment up (but dormant, for now) at #CarlBarronPlaza while work continues @cambridgemass.bsky.social

North Washington Street Bridge, connecting Charlestown and Downtown Boston, is complete. Congratulations @streets.boston.gov and @massdot.bsky.social!

It’s a “driver” when the victim is property. It’s a “car” when the victim is someone walking, biking, or just existing.

What happens when there’s not enough space for accessible sidewalks? Make a shared street. Here’s Fairmont Ave in Cambridge, MA. Former sidewalks become landscaping and everyone shares the flush street at very slow speeds. Special surface treatment tells you something is different.

Main Street (Cambridge, MA) separated bike lanes striped with flexposts. Green and remaining markings coming soon.

The Republican gerrymander in North Carolina meant that Harris’s 47.65% vote share translated into only 21% of congressional seats.

Heads up! We temporarily moved the #MIT at Mass Ave / Amherst St #Bluebikes station half a block north—next to the big crosswalk at the Rogers Building—during sidewalk construction. It’ll go back in a few weeks. Did you know this is the busiest station in the whole system? @ridebluebikes.bsky.social

It’s wild. We go through all this process to try and secure federal funding when this could be paid for with state money right now.

Sidewalks poured at Carlo Barron Plaza! 🤩

Talk about being in the right place at the right time @universalhub.com

Anyone missing a furry friend? Came across this fine, friendly fella next to the JP fire station on Centre @universalhub.com

A couple years ago, I helped a bunch of people get a good deal on a RadPowerBikes RadMission. I referred more than 180 people to buy the bike, which was on sale for $500, and I said there would never be a deal that good again. Here's a deal almost as good. www.velotricbike.com/products/vel...

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

This level of demonstration is made viable by density, mass transit, and open space. I wonder why it’s so hard to invest in these features of human society?

It’s a shame we have to remove this bus stop and hydrant. It has not functioned as intended to justify the space allocation because of commercial deliveries.

The average Fox News viewer has no idea that Musk is tearing down a system that allowed this country to rule the world for the past 75 years. And when their standard of living slips dramatically in the next five years they still won’t understand because their TV will blame it on some poor scapegoat.

@jasonschreier.bsky.social I recall you mentioning on triple click a Greek gods/myths book you really enjoyed in your childhood. What book was that?

This poster is from the U.S. Holocaust Museum. Download and spread this image. We have to recognize these signs before it's too late.

Who will sponsor a bill banning ad wraps over windows of @mbta.bsky.social buses and trains?

A great illustration of why in-ground mounting is the only way.

Visited the reconfigured Alewife Bk Pkwy at Powder House Blvd. A model local street. Almost a new typology altogether. Very fascinating example of what’s possible with flexibility from designers, engineers, and decision makers.

This is the way
