Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan… * Vehicle traffic: -11% * Foot traffic: +3.4% * Storefront vacancy: -0.9% * Pollution: -22% * Revenue for mass transit: $548M So YES this has been a huge success.

A man has died after being hit by a vehicle on Richmond's Southside on Sunday evening, according to authorities.

Really interesting research showing that while ultra-specialization in a single discipline might lead to better results early in one’s career, multi-discipline training and practice pays off big time in the long run. This applies to a range of professions from scientists to athletes and more

Grace, make up your mind. Lifelong Democrat, or staunch Nazi Republican? #bot

Hampton Roads does not need more roads. “Just one more lane, bro” never works. There are far better ways to spend money to improve transportation in the region. Rail, for example.

Bravo Zulu!

Lovely!

Meanwhile, pedestrians and their damn phones that they’re always looking at…. Surly, they’re to blame.

Thank you @wavynews10.bsky.social for reporting on this story and bringing attention to the dangers that cyclists face. www.wavy.com/news/local-n...

Sitting here waiting for my news story (about being hit by a car) to be posted to @wavynews10.bsky.social and reading all these headlines just really drive homes the point how dangerous a car oriented transportation network really is. #carsruincities #thewaroncars

In 2024 there was one fatality after a pedestrian / bike collision - in the entire UK. Meanwhile 265 pedestrians died after being hit by a car. So why was there huge focus on bikes using this one #Edinburgh street, but little about the vehicles using it? #motornormativity @ianwalker.bsky.social?

Fun at the Chrysler Museum for the City of Norfolk’s Mayor’s Appreciation Reception for the city’s various commissions a boards. A lovely evening, thank you.

Hit & Run on Granby Street. I'm okay (not dead, at least). Some abrasions, my knee is sore. Filed a police report. You can hear the driver honk just before hitting me. Didn't stop at all, but just kept going. Granby through Riverview needs protected bike lanes as well. This was the 2nd time.

This is something that really bothers me.

It’s important to contextualize just how much less safe American drivers are than everywhere else in the world, and it’s getting worse!

It’s all about the CO2 emissions. Everything else is secondary.

What this world needs is more well read politicians and their book lists. Any other politicians care to share what they’ve read this year?

Norfolk City Council adopted the NFK2050 Comprehensive Plan this past Tuesday. It's 148 pages, and I'm trying to read it all. I'll post my comments here. A thread: www.norfolk.gov/nfk2050

“You should take the serif pill, type in the native font of your nation, and clack those keys so loud and proud it nearly spills the Black Rifle coffee out of the camo Stanley beside you.” The fact that MAGAsphere is promoting a foreign typeface is hilarious. @mcsweeneys.net

It’s the CO2 emissions.

Having polluted air is a policy choice that is made at the municipal level. And likewise having clean air is a policy choice.

Agreed. And I think Norfolk City Council is more on the timid side than leadership side when it comes to safe streets.

This morning's close call with a lifted pick-up truck on Granby St. It almost looks like he turns into me.

It’s the CO2 emissions.

As a proud former petty bureaucrat, I appreciate this monument.

Some good news. “A wild beaver has been spotted in Norfolk for the first time since beavers were hunted to extinction in England at the beginning of the 16th century.”

“No one bikes in the winter.” Minneapolis protected bikelane at 4pm after 1-2” fell in the middle of the day: Look at all of these bike tracks made outside of the popular commute times. 😍

“In 2023, cars and their drivers killed 8,820 American pedestrians and bicyclists — 7,314 pedestrians and 1,166 cyclists. They injured another 136,281, an increase of over 5,300 injuries from 2022.” Put the responsibility where it belongs. Via @jalopnik.bsky.social
