What questions are y’all gonna ask today at the East Precinct?

I’m being nice right now cause it’s raining and nsc lost

Look you can take till 2040 @freddieoconnell.bsky.social if your AAC’s can get as close to BRT as possible. 🙏🏻 Dedicated Right-of-Way(plz be center)🙏🏻TSP everywhere🙏🏻Stations with off board fare collection(if collecting fares) and level boarding🙏🏻obvi those high frequencies and 24/7, etc 🙏🏻MUG&MUI TOD🤣

I biked to Geodis in the rain! lol Turns out @kingofthewink.bsky.social has sick seats. Thank you! Only a golf cart with their headlights off driving right at me on Fatherland and a fire department SUV California stopping and turning in front of me at 3rd and Peabody caused any concern.

Context sensitive just means pussy

This is, umm,…disappointing.

I’d bike to Geodis right now

What can we do to raise more mid block crosswalks in this city? Seems like low hanging fruit but I guess Metro Water has to do a damn study or something for every one.

I’m on the 52 trying to get to Geodis. Sure would be nice to have that 4th Ave bus lane right about now…

WTAF. 4 more years til Gallatin work begins?

Hey! What the fuck @freddieoconnell.bsky.social?

If anyone has an NSC ticket they wanna get rid of, I’ll bike there:)

I also learned this evening that the city has moved $8 million in surplus dollars that had been allocated for NDOT/Vision Zero to elsewhere. Currently Vision Zero has ~$12 million remaining, with $5 million being allocated to Gallatin/Main. Projects with completed engineering will go unfunded.

This was the first I’d seen of these plans. Extraordinarily disappointed. I don’t see how we can pitch people on incrementalism when this is the result.

A council member and a former council member left the contract and compliance meeting a couple of minutes ago to head that way. Hope it stays clear for their sake.

Has the first rain delay been announced yet?

At the April Contract Compliance Board meeting. On the agenda today is the Executive Director Evaluation.

On my way to tonight’s Main/Gallatin public information meeting at the East Library. My bus is more than 15 minutes past scheduled stop time, so I’ll be a touch late to the meeting 🥴

Is Nashville’s Vision Zero plan working? We asked Vision Zero Advisory Committee chair @charlieweingartner.bsky.social:

new hub hack unlocked

I just received an email stating that it's @nashvilledot.bsky.social's policy to remove any reported vulgarity within a day. So, you know, if you have any HUB requests, hit it with a paint marker first before you submit to expedite the problem.

Introduced two friend groups last night and they immediately teamed up to slander/make fun of me for being a centrist. Never again.

Main/Gallatin updates with NDOT/CHYM Tonight April 28, East Library, 6:00 April 29, East Precinct, 5:00

With 10:27 in the 4th @jeguth.bsky.social believes “the Nuggets are gonna do it.”

Where the fuck did @angusmcdeath.bsky.social go? He used to be a super poster.

Athena Bikeways meeting on May 6 www.nashville.gov/departments/... nashville.webex.com/wbxmjs/joins...

Nashville could rapidly accelerate building world-class BRT on Murfreesboro Pike ahead of the Super Bowl. Instead, the state is blocking airport BRT to favor of a low-capacity tesla tunnel promised by a serial liar.

With State of Metro speech upcoming this week, what is souring Nashvillians on the city’s trajectory and dampening enthusiasm for Mayor Freddie O'Connell's leadership? My latest column up today at @Tennesseelookout.com.

We're planning to do a 6:00 pm live stream with forecast updates for tonight's event. See you then!

Mood

On April 28, we will gather to honor workers who set out to provide for their families and never returned home. 🕯️ Join us for Worker’s Memorial Day and renew our commitment to safer workplaces for all. 📍 700 2nd Ave S #101, Nashville, TN 📅 April 28, 2026 ⏰ 5:30pm

Again, Nashville is one of the most dangerous cities to work in construction. I would encourage everyone to join us.

Yet again just do the good thing and the doubters will become believers.

til @minakimes.bsky.social has family in Middle Tennessee. Titan Up lol

How long will they last this time?

Thinking about this moment from the final day of last year's legislative session.

Thank you to Spacing for giving me the opportunity to write about how the Church Street Pedestrianization project all started, my inspirations, the challenges, and the opportunities of the project!

Me, on Fridays and Saturdays between 7:30 p.m. and 2 a.m in September and October, 2025

"The safest way to get around this town is in a 20 ton bus driven by a professional driver. The drivers in this town... what can you say?" - The legend, John Bull

Guy on the bus looks like Brian Cox, and he’s got earrings. Too cool

I hate overhearing conversations from flippers at coffee shops. Y'all so trifling.

“…disabled people are actually less likely to drive than nondisabled people and more likely to get around by walking and rolling and taking transit. Car-heavy cities are also disproportionately dangerous for disabled folks…”— @nondriver.bsky.social Don’t use accessibility “as a political football.”

Also there is a non-zero chance that a human will at some point in their life become disabled (even if only temporarily) so why not build spaces for everyone?

Realized today that it’s not entirely true to say Connect Downtown hasn’t been implemented. Parts of it have! (the parts that help drivers)

Excited for housing bonds, @freddieoconnell.bsky.social!

Last day of legislative session is akin to the last day of school. I'm waiting for them to roll in a TV so we can watch a pirated VHS tape of a Disney movie.

Question for 🦞: I’m operating @cycling.city right now out of my own pocket. I’m happy to be in a place where I’m not concerned with driving revenue. It’s an LLC, taxes paid, licensed, etc., but no one will insure it because of no revenue. I’d even happily cover my premium out of pocket. 1/2

You ever feel proud of a friend like you’re their mom or something. Just like pure warmth. They can do no wrong. They’re perfect just the way they are lol
