how much will i spend on winter cycling kit before i just give up and get an indoor trainer

work is progressing along the northern half of whitney ave - excavation is nearly done, new curb is in for a majority of the length, and the future cycletrack base is being graded. rough shape of intersection bumpouts are visible, and signal crew is onsite installing new equipment foundations

yikes! if your business is reliant on having 1-2 parking spaces directly outside your front door and not the thousands of people who walk by each day, maybe the problem is your business and not the street www.newhavenindependent.org/2025/12/10/b...

ancient grains ?? no thanks. i prefer my food to be fresh listen not every post will be a winner

the northern section of the state street cycletrack was paved last week as well as some other small pieces - will not be open for a bit as the intersections still need to be built for continuity, but the final vision is coming together!

"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace

the curbing subcontractor on state st works super fast - all this curb for the new grand ave island was set today. compared to the old island, this will be about 5x larger

following the minimum parking provisions of former HB5002 closely, the word is that the revised bill being brought up in the special session starting today unfortunately waters it down even further. it will be imperative next session to try to pass something like HB7061 (full repeal)

construction barrels and line striping crew out on whitney ave this morning. road diet from the hamden town line to highland st beginning today for long term work zone setup

would like to have a word with whomever creates the nyt connections. thanks

in naugatuck this morning checking out all the streetscape and infrastructure work they’ve done. at a coffee shop and the mayor is here, so many people stopping by to let him know that they love the transformation of church st

some before and (in progress) after of the new state st taking shape

a must read! i’m continually curious as to why the governor is so pro-allowing towns to set pseudoscientific, arbitrary, and excessive parking requirements. what kind of Donald Shoup-level knowledge of parking generation does he have that all the experts who worked on 5002 don’t?

keeping an eye on the milford mayor race (incumbent vs previous interim mayor) and the manchester board of directors (could influence their proposed main street multimodal safety project)

had a dream i made jd vance cry at a dinner party

two former vehicle lanes are now taking shape as a new sidewalk, bike lane, greenspace, and pedestrian lighting

heck yeah

“As we continue to have conversations about what we do to support the bike bus movement,” PBOT Director Williams said the BAC meeting last week, “some of that will require some changes. There is a deep interest in making sure that we do that well and do that right.” bikeportland.org/2025/10/21/p...

remember in 2020 when the electoral college was called for biden and people immediately filled the streets and cheered? no kings yesterday made me feel just a little of that again and it gives me hope

bad stuff. thankful for CT state programs like LOTCIP at this time to keep transportation projects moving

could really go for one of these rn

layout markings are down on whitney ave and demolition is scheduled to start next week! highlighted some of the lines with alt text descriptions to show what is happening

well this explains why @wtnh.bsky.social , after filming a story about an all encompassing transportation and economic development project on state st, and interviewing one (1) driver and one (1) cyclist, chose the headline “drivers express concerns”

big things happening tonight www.newhavenindependent.org/article/stat...

confession: still don’t know what the E in ‘the big E’ stands for, thinking it might be one of those harry s. truman situations

picked up some really good yogurt flavors for the week

some state street updates! descriptions in the alt text 🚧

The initial screening had so many unique options that would actually reroute the highway away from the city and help restore the neighborhood. Instead we get another couple generations of even larger highways along a riverfront

Next article from the CT Mirror: The president doesn’t make policy that affects CT. This is because the White House is located in D.C. what a weird article!

what a blessed evening i saw three (3) neighborhood cats within the same block and pet one (1) of them

People think they hate urban canyons, but if you replace all the parked cars without outdoor dining and open streets these blocks become INCREDIBLY charming.

i follow the bids posted by CTDOT weekly, and it looks like the sigourney st cycletrack project is out in hartford! i had heard shortly after it was built that they had designed it to reserve space for bike lanes, and this design looks really good. may do a thread on it at some point

it is my great honor to announce. today i have bought a tomato from a farmers market

people with cars love to tell you where they parked. alright man congrats

saw this bumper sticker today and cant stop thinking about it

nachtegaalstraat in utrecht, NL has the same building scale and R.O.W. width as upper state st in new haven... what i like about urban dutch streets is that they use very low curbs and put parking behind them (white X), so that when a car is not parked, it is expanded sidewalk space

changing out my air filter from my old downtown apartment 😬

✌️ out audubon, moving to east rock today 🏞️

now that’s what i’m talking about

senator looney was one of our legislators quite upset about lamont’s housing bill veto, but now he has the opportunity to do the funniest thing possible www.wtnh.com/news/connect...

state street north permanently closed this week - its 35 year run has come to an end and will soon be replaced by housing

finally caved and made an openstreetmap account so i can update new infra as soon as it opens

raised crosswalk going in at trumbull & lincoln! this one will be a huge benefit

finding out via reddit that our sign was hacked into (it’s been fixed and locked) anyways there’s a detour for state st north starting tuesday THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! www.reddit.com/r/newhaven/s...

paving day for the grove st connector!

been thinking about Spiders Georg lately

you ever just watch a full sunset and think wow we really do be rotating

feel bad for the person answering gov lamont's phone as they sounded so tired...but sorry, if the gov is going to act this way, you're getting phone calls.

so if lamont ends up vetoing 5002, who is our best contender to primary him?
