How much time in council meetings has been spent talking about graffiti and shoplifting vs traffic safety? The former do not kill constituents like the latter, but I would not be surprised if it was easily twice as much.

Well this is going to depress me for the rest of the day: transpose an urban network onto any city you like and see how rubbish the investment in public transport outside London is.

I wanted to compare what I saw on Seattle's Line 1 LRT with Toronto's Finch LRT. In Seattle, you can see left turning cars waiting while fast-moving transit gets priority. Help TTCriders make it happen in Toronto:

Yep, JBLM took about 2/3rds of what was them the Nisqually Reservation, and still stands. The Reservation is now only 1,728 acres after 3,353 were stolen.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Important context on this issue: - it is WILDLY expensive in Seattle to follow the rules for a street vendor. it's not just health code.
bsky.app/profile/r343...
- County health dept wants to focus on helping abide by health rules. These enforcements ain't that.

Could we get a Seattle version of WA SB 5903 (21-22) which didn’t make it out of committee? The law would require businesses offering drive-up service to also serve people walking or biking. I feel like this makes sense within city limits especially!
