The City of San Diego released their Draft Bicycle Master Plan Update Network fp.mysocialpinpoint.com/sd-bikeplan let's take a look.

This article does a good job describing the “before” condition (class III shared lane) and the effect that an upgrade to class IV separated bikeways has had on ridership. @asmchrisward.bsky.social & staff deserve much credit for seeing this project through completion while he was Councilmember.

I know the Cinderella team I’m rooting for! #MoValMarchMadness @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social

214 San Diego to 209 Moreno Valley! It’s sooo close!

bsky.app/profile/heyj... City of SD CAP goals for biking in 2030 are Portland’s in its best year levels (7%) and we’re at .7% ☹️ A pedestrian died on W. Point Loma Blvd yesterday. We need to declare a state of emergency and push all available finite resources towards CAP and VZ goals.

Submitted 1 on behalf of this bicyclist who has their own system for dealing with bike lane blockers. (Of course driver was absent and missed this PSA 😤)

They're launching a Streetsblog SD !

New research suggests rising global temperatures are likely to contribute to a decrease in physical activity.

The San Diego City Council could take a major step in reducing speed limits on roads throughout the city, in order to meet its "Vision Zero" goal to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

University Bikeway will make our streets safer and more accessible. This project goes beyond adding bike lanes by protecting drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists with traffic calming measures. This SANDAG investment (1/2)

Public Safety First: A call to action for District Attorneys and State Attorney General to enforce consumer protection laws. E-bikes represent a novel opportunity to give people in California a reliable, clean, and independent way to get around.

San Diego is taking a major step toward making its streets safer with a new comprehensive speed management plan that outlines where speed limits could be lowered across the city as part of its Vision Zero goal to eliminate traffic deaths.

Research on the 15th Street cycletrack (albeit a different section) found that "Motor vehicle [Level of Service] was largely unaffected" www.researchgate.net/publication/... Level of Service is a vehicle traffic flow metric that primarily looks at congestion, so 15th Street didn't cause congestion

Help stop the misguided attempt to license bikes in CA, it will only lead to making it more difficult for people to adopt bikes. We don’t need new laws, we need the existing classifications of e-bikes to be properly enforced. bikeeastbay.org/say-no-to-ma...!

The same guys using junk science to say protected bike lanes are dangerous for people biking told the mom who lost her daughter and other supporters that the red light cameras they’re requesting will not prevent future crashes because of sunsets and because they say so.

Build a low-stress citywide network and more Americans will ride bikes more often.

Secure micromobility parking at UCSD medical center Hillcrest at top of recently-improved Bachman Dr. People scoff when you tell them how many people bike to the hospital because they only imagine themselves doing it sick or injured, but not of the staff who want health benefits from their commute.

#sandiego Downtown Clean & Safe survey is out. I asked them to operate the bollards on 5th Ave so that it can be pedestrianized again: www.surveymonkey.com/r/2P3FZC3

Absolutely damning study documenting the rate of drivers breaking the law "extrapolated, the data projects a staggering 200,000 daily violations at just these intersections" Confirms what everyone has experienced since Covid. All it took was to set up cameras and document it #safestreets #bikesky

What You Need to Know About After-School Care San Diego families face scarce after-school care with long waitlists despite district expansion. Start searching early, check school pre-enrollment windows, and ask about deadlines and wait times. Use YMCA a…

Agreed. There hasn’t been a particularly coordinated or concerted pushback, and it’s leading the door open for misunderstanding and hampered ebike adoption. We are trying to make our voice heard on the topic, but there’s so much more to be done. www.linkedin.com/posts/tooled...

"The annual traffic fatality rate per 100k people increased by more than 33% across the 100 largest US cities but less than 5% in all other parts of the country [between 2008-12 and 2018-22]." findingspress.org/article/1559...

Because I’m a sicko, I peruse old digitized City of SD planning documents. I stumbled upon the 1938-39 Annual City Budget Report. How do we bring back this graphic design freedom when communicating the city budget??? Feel like it might help clear some things up.

Do you use an e-scooter to get around? I’m working on a feature about the people behind the growing number of e-scooters on our streets - why people ride, how it’s changed daily life, and how riders are navigating new rules, safety risks etc Replies, DMs, or email: [email protected]

For my San Diego peeps, my org, as part of our OneSD effort, launched a countywide survey this week to assess the state of our community fabric. Open to all in SD County and just takes 10 minutes. Please take the survey, share widely, and feel free to reach out to me with questions. My DMs are open.

In California, there’s been a 67% reduction in traffic misdemeanor filings since 2014 Data is from courts.ca.gov/news-referen...

This one block on Pacific Highway has more bike lane obstructions than some entire cities 😂😭

Great to see so many organizations joining together to say that walking and biking infrastructure are essential! www.keepamericaactive.org.

January 2026 temperature rankings compared to all Januarys since 1895.

In 2024 Oakland implemented a 4 car lane to 1 car lane road diet on 13th St in Downtown using only paint. It’s not perfect but this relatively cheap change has helped a lot w speeding. The perpendicular Webster corridor is the same width & needs a similar update ASAP.

A small group of retirees riding bikes in San Diego County tell elected officials & traffic engineers the design at left is safer and preferable to the one at right. It doesn’t matter they’re wrong, that it would halve ridership, they get an audience because their preference is a car-centric design.

The Doomsday Clock is as close to midnight as ever as scientists warn the world is "perilously close to global disaster."

This is exactly the problem with 99% of bike infrastructure implementation in the US. It is done opportunistically or paired with repaving on a piece-by-piece basis, rather than implemented *as a network first*. This is how you get a bike network in Los Angeles like this.

NEW: The Trump administration is planning to use AI to write federal regulations despite the risk of hallucinations. “We don't even need a very good rule,” the Transportation Department’s top lawyer said of the plan, per meeting notes reviewed by ProPublica. “We want good enough.”🧵

Moderate Dems watch: Mark Warner just posted he “cannot and will not vote to fund DHS while this administration continues these violent federal takeovers of our cities.”

Got plans Jan. 29? Hundreds of volunteers needed to count San Diego County homeless people. From North County Reporter @katiefutterman.bsky.social. inewsource.org/2026/01/22/s...

All of this is downstream from police departments completely giving up on traffic enforcement. Last I saw, traffic citations in California are down about 90% over that past decade. Drivers no longer see anyone getting punished for anything so they assume they can get away with almost anything.

I’ve begun a new research project and now escape today’s madness by rifling through pre-1914 cycling magazines. I’ll share stuff here and there on this thread, starting with …

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan. A citizen. Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold. "We're from the United States bro!' he screamed. Agents took and sold his phone And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Alright fellow history nerds, what're your podcasts of choice? Currently oscillating between California History with Jordan Mattox and Ben Franklins World. Former has covered railroads, true crime, indigenous people. Latter covers war and society in the revolutionary US
