The Prospect Expressway sounds like the Mos Eisley spaceport tonight.

Before and after: 5 years ago, Utrecht restored the Catharijnesingel. Once filled in during the 1970s to make way for traffic, the historic canal now flows again around the old city, lined with pedestrian paths, bike lanes, and a park-like landscape. 📸 @filmendefietser.bsky.social (#DCEnetwork)

Have you checked out Streetsblog's NYC DOT project tracker, quietly headlined, "A Measure of Success"? Here it is: datawrapper.dwcdn.net/d4DpD/10/

And, by the way, the headline on that tracker is "A Measure of Success," which is hardly "scalding." It is, literally, a measure of success. See the tracker for yourself, public, and weigh in: datawrapper.dwcdn.net/d4DpD/10/

None of that is actually true.

It's a tracker. It will be updated daily. And by April, the city will be well served to know what's in green and what's still in orange ("incomplete").

Wait a second? Streetsblog now has an "Empire State" edition?! empire.streetsblog.org/mondays-head...

Why is a NYS police officer parked illegally in the 10th Ave. bike lane where federal DEA jackboots always park? And why does he have a plate cover? And why is he such a reckless driver? Lots of questions. I'll get answers on Monday. But it's outrageous if NYS is loaning officers to DEA.

Drivers who kill pedestrians often face minimal punishment, a Streetsblog investigation found.

BREAKING NEWS: @nyc.streetsblog.org has reset the Mamdani-O-Meter back to ZERO after @mayor.nyc.gov disappointed the livable streets movement by continuing to ticket cyclists in a sting at a badly designed street: nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/01/09/f...

“Nobody will cycle in bad weather.” The Netherlands:

As @nyc.streetsblog.org reported today, Mayor Mamdani helped fix the Williamsburg Bridge exit (nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/01/06/g...), but no project is official until I take the first ride!

We’re waiting for the mayor at the McGuinness press conference but DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn has been handed, and put on, a “Make McGuinness Safe,” button which we never saw when Adams was mayor.

Before he fully takes office, let's relive the best moments from Zohran Mamdani's 2025 — and you can vote for your favorite: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/31/t...

In today's headlines, Mayor Mamdani put his DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn center stage at his own inauguration! nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/01/01/n...

Did you catch how Mayor Mamdani put DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn center stage at his own inauguration? That's a real symbol of his commitment to livable streets: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/31/m...

Still exclu: Former DOT Commissioner Jeanette Sadik-Khan offers a statement on incoming DOT boss Mike Flynn: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/31/m...

Sources say that Mike Flynn, a former DOT official and planner, has been named Zohran Mamdani's DOT commissioner. Livable streets movement folk cheered the news: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/31/m...

Have you voted for Loser of the Year? Polls are still open! nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/30/s...

Of the 10 people mentioned by name in Bob Dylan's I Shall Be Free only Sophia Loren (91) and Bob himself (84) are now still alive

Albany had its fair share of screw ups in 2025. Take a gander at the worst to come out of state government this year. nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/26/s...

Zohran takes office in 3 days with a mandate for change. Including changing our streets. Help him and help people see the possibilities

Polls are still open to vote for my “Doobie in the Bike Lane” video: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/26/s...

I'm no Orcutt, but I will make the case. Per city stats, non-highway reported crashes in the congestion pricing zone are down 4 percent this year (full year projection vs. 2024) and injuries from those crashes are down 3.7 percent.

You’re write!

We’re live at South Street a seaport for another “blue highways” test event, this time featuring Empire Clean Cities, Fulpra, Net Zero Logistics, Freight Matter and (pictured) $1,000 in fish! #ThisIsStreetsblog

Inbox: Zohran Mamdani will hold a 12-hour "Mayor Is Listening" session tomorrow during which New Yorkers will "share their stories, their needs and their love for New York" with him. The event is closed press & it's unclear who these New Yorkers are or how they were identified.

I had fun writing this year-in-review story for @nyc.streetsblog.org: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/03/s...

I will always remember where I was when I heard that Pete Alonso was no longer a Met.

Get your "rare" chance to enjoy Fifth Avenue without cars (left). Hmm, why is it rare? Oh, yeah, right (right)...

Here's your periodic reminder that there are more than 230 reported crashes every day in NYC.

Great editorial in @nytopinion.nytimes.com, but your bad framing is showing: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

In an investigation today with help from @jehiah.cz, I revealed racial bias in NYPD policing (what else is new?) and debunked their main defense of it! nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/08/w...

Thank you to Leg Day (@drvarg01.bsky.social) for including the Streetsblog bike parking placard on this year's Holiday Gift Guide. legday.substack.com/p/gear-of-th...

I don't get no respect. I went to a dominatrix for my humiliation fetish and she said she admires me as a human being!

Giving Tuesday?! I call this RECEIVING Tuesday for @nyc.streetsblog.org fans: nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/12/02/g...

My guess? This is not going to be a good rush hour for millions of New Yorkers …

I get the feeling that the British constitution isn't worth the paper it's not printed on!

I just got burned on a hot stove: nypost.com/2025/11/23/s...

Here's a legit question: CloudFlare, a company I'd never heard of, cost my company tens of thousands of dollars today because of its outage. But today's corporate oligarchy is an elaborately constructed accountability avoidance machine. So how can I get compensated for our losses?

So, I got an undeserved check from the state and knew what to do with it immediately... (@maketheroadny.bsky.social)
