Driver Perfectly Describes Pedestrian They Couldn't See.

So cool to be given a glimpse into life after cars with @thewaroncars.bsky.social in their own neighbourhood! youtu.be/K9qYiCYGwiE

Now that the streets are in better shape and the melt has revealed #freshKermit I’m certainly preferring the snow-protected #bikenyc lanes over the parking protected! For one: it keeps the idiots & cranks from parking in them! 😀

Gateway project funding restored (at bit). /via @gothamist.com gothamist.com/news/gateway...

Take a tour of the new cycle parking below Berlin's Potsdamer Platz. Designed for utility, sport, electric and cargo bikes, it enables a smooth transition to public transport, while taking a disused and uncomfortable private retail corridor and reimagining it as a safe and inviting community space.

After explaining how teen driving is dangerous and expensive, the solution presented is not for the parents to advocate for making car-free transportation alternatives more available but to push the young people to drive by making them overcome their fears.

Just published a short to draw attention to last week's long video about cycling rules in the Netherlands. youtube.com/shorts/vanYi...

Very excited to say that the stars have aligned and NYU Marron/Transit Costs Project have landed a grant that will fund a second edition of Momentum, which will apply the high-throughput framework to major regional rail networks beyond the NY area. Our three big new cases: - NJT - SEPTA - METRA

A 10 mph speed limit for e-bikes in Florida? It feels like a competition for which state can pass the stupidest e-bike laws. (New Jersey is winning that competition right now of course.) A total 'satanic panic'-style mass hysteria against e-bikes.

“A devastated family in Newark is blaming the snow banks on the side of the road for the death of their loved one. Tyree Peterson, 34, was struck and killed by a car as he was trying to catch a bus on Saturday” abc7ny.com/post/newark-...

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

Great news. www.nj.com/news/2026/02...

Just noticed the 159 bus has WiFi. New rollout coming? @customeradvocate.bsky.social

I never use food delivery apps because I know how they’re ripping off and undermining the life of the restaurants I love that are creating the real value to our cities, communities and streets. @lastweektonight.com covered it.

In 1915 experts in law and in municipal engineering agreed with the Chicago Surface Lines: Streets are a public resource regulated in the public interest – the greatest good to the greatest number. By this standard, everyone else took precedence over motorists driving personal automobiles. ...

You rarely see a bike ride interview done like this. youtu.be/FZnGd8QBboc?...

The insistence of 2 bridges seems to follow trend of any new major bridge built in the NYC metro area in recent times being 2 separate bridges: Goethals, Kosciuszko, Tappan Zee (Cuomo). www.nj.com/news/2026/01...

What an inspiring way to spend the morning in San Diego - in alliance with these lovely ~400 cyclists remembering #prettigood #noice

New York joins the nationwide group ride for Alex Pretti.

Didn’t get great pics bc I can’t bike with one hand but the NYC ride for Alex Pretti was huge—this is the back! My favorite part was biking through another protest and all of us cheering for each other

The group bike ride for Alex Pretti is about to depart in Minneapolis, stopping at his memorial, then Renee Good’s, and finishing at the VFW. If you can join, hop on anywhere. It’s a warm 17° & sunny! I’ve never seen this many cyclists for a group ride. ⚡️✊🏽⚡️🚲⚡️✊🏽⚡️ #RIPPretti

TODAY. FOLEY SQUARE. 2 P.M.

Seattle's Critical Mass Unity Ride for Alex. Biggest impromptu ride I've been a part of :O

I think it's okay to admit there is room for improvement in snow clearance w/o having your NYC bonafides questioned. Not sure how this has become the dominant narrative--but the crosswalks are legitimately concerning for the mobility challenged and elderly and that should concern us all.

The NJTRANSIT app could use some quality of life improvements. Here's me unable to delete favorite light rail routes. Why are there empty rows, too? I've been sending these issues via the contact form but no resolution. @customeradvocate.bsky.social Pixel 8 / Android 16

Sidewalk conditions to bus stops on Tonnelle Ave are unacceptable. Why aren't the big box businesses (Home Depot, Target, Lowes) held accountable to keep it clean? @stateofnewjersey.bsky.social @homedepotofficial.bsky.social

After driving through New Brunswick NJ, I have a theory that the places that have suffered the most from lingering snow / ice build-up are the ones where people park cars on the street all the time.

👋 Hey bus riders! NJ TRANSIT is testing two different e-ink screen solutions that could be used as information signs at bus stops in the future. Both would display & announce real-time departure times & service alerts. Your feedback would be appreciated—take a look🧵👇

Someone spotted this e-ink sign at the Congress/Palisade bus stop. Any more info @customeradvocate.bsky.social ?

New Jersey now has one of the worst, if not THE worst, e-bike laws in the country, requiring even people with pedal-assist bikes that top out at 18 mph to get the equivalent of motorcycle licenses.

OK, here's an answer: Mikie already picked somebody else. newjerseyglobe.com/governor/she...

👏👏👏 Excellent op-ed by Maya Pontón Aronoff: Murphy must veto anti-safety, anti-affordability, & anti-immigrant e-bike bill Will @govmurphy.bsky.social cap his last term, by signing the country's most punitive e-bike laws in the country? Tell Governor Murphy no: Call 609-292-6000 Text 732-605-5455

It must not be fun to be a staffer of @govmurphy.bsky.social right now, fielding calls about immigration bills (sign) and e-bikes (veto). Text the Governor (732) 605-5455 This video has >11K likes & ~200K views. youtu.be/gjRNoVYuo28?...

New Jersey: Please CALL or TEXT Governor Murphy now and ask him to veto the absurd bill passed by the state legislature requiring insurance and registration of low-speed e-bikes...details below via @rpa.org.

Why do cycle bridges matter? Cycle bridges create safe, direct routes for people on bikes, especially across busy roads, railways, or waterways. They remove conflict points with motor traffic, reducing the risk of collisions and making cycling more enjoyable for everyone.

🚨 Stop the e-bike bill in New Jersey! 🚨 The NJ General Assembly is voting TOMORROW on an e-bike bill that creates confusion, limits mobility options, and threatens our climate progress. Contact your assembly member: https://bit.ly/4srWAHT Write your legislators: https://bit.ly/45vbDXi

🚆The rollout of new real-time departure signs continues on HBLR. Installation is complete at Essex Street & underway at Bergenline Ave & Newport, where demand for better info has been strong since the disruptions last summer. During installation, use the NJ TRANSIT app for scheduled departures.

To explain zoning to my family, I'll say: "For Thanksgiving, the salad is on one table, drinks upstairs, sides in the living room, and the turkey is in the bathroom." Then we'll watch the traffic chaos as everyone tries to eat. That's how bad zoning creates traffic out of thin air. 🦃

It's wild this became a common job and usually done by senior folks.

the fact that there is free parking at all in manhattan is wild to me

The Turnpike Trap Coalition publishes the following statement in response to NJTA's Friday announcement. The "cancellation" is misleading: ❌ Proceeding with 4 new lanes adding >20K cars and trucks a day to Newark & Jersey City ❌ Tear down and rebuild plans after 14A are murky ❌ No dollars for NJT

We are thrilled to partner with @jctheatercenter.bsky.social to host an evening with Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, the co-hosts of @thewaroncars.bsky.social podcast and authors of Life After Cars at White Eagle Hall on Wednesday, January 21. Tickets: www.eventim.us/wafform.aspx...

Nice! Sidewalk snow clearing at scale. Haven't seen these power brush sweepers before. I think this one was hired by the local downtown SID and not by Jersey City itself. It would be a reasonable solution vs relying on every building owner to do the right thing, which never happens. #jerseycity

Shannon Godbout, 41, had more than 100 citations before she struck and killed Roderick Macleod, 70, a grammy nominated musician who was walking his dog. 😡😡😡 Our #StopSuperSpeeders legislation targets egregious offenders like this. So they can't hurt more people. www.krem.com/article/news...

Legislators in Trenton should vote against the e-bike bill because it: 1) is a de facto ban on Citibike and other popular bike share programs in NJ; 2) puts the livelihoods of many restaurants at risk; and 3) makes low-cost transportation unaffordable and inaccessible.

City leaders tell us safety takes years of studies and budget meetings. ​Yet when a resident spends $50 on paint to fix it themselves, the police response is instant. ​Funny how the bureaucracy suddenly disappears when it's time to punish someone.

Never forget, car dependency isn’t freedom. Some might ask “what’s more free than cars?” Choices. Choices are more free than car dependency. It’s not a hard concept. I’m not pitting cars against any other single mode of transport. I’m rejecting design that creates dependency on just one mode.
