the folks at bikeloud did so much to fight for bus lanes on 82nd, on a project that technically didn’t even include any bike infrastructure. love to see solidarity between transportation groups in this city ❤️

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

For those supposedly boycotting Balboa Park over parking fees, that was the least successful boycott ever today. It was indistinguishable from a typical summer Saturday with no parking fees. But TACO Todd already relented effective in March.

- It's about 25:1 how often drivers inconvenience me vs vice versa - Drivers passing improperly is done by their own accord, not caused by the cyclist

so close to getting it

Safe streets and better transit are foundational to the affordability agenda send tweet

Absolutely infuriating. Every facet of our government is infiltrated with car brained officials.

I’ll say it again. There IS such a thing as “vertical sprawl.” It’s not tall buildings. It’s tall buildings IN CAR-DEPENDENT SPRAWL. If you do tall buildings in walkable, multi-modal urbanism, then it’s VERTICAL URBANISM, not vertical sprawl. Suggesting otherwise means you don’t understand sprawl.

Why did I take my bike to get groceries today? * I save gas money * I lessen wear and tear on my car * I get exercise * If you don't like car culture, and so much of our infrastructure in the U.S. is car-centric, this is a small act of resistance

Spending a minute in an elevator is not equivalent to a 60-minute car commute!

When they say "millions" here, they mean over $100M! Together these awards totaled to: Wilmington Safe Streets: $32M Skid Row Connectivity Project: $39M Boyle Heights Connectivity Project: $32M (it's notable that the motion omits the embarrassing total)

A cyclist was killed yesterday a few blocks from my house. Bike lanes are a culture war thing now that cuts across parties. The Trump-Bowser side of that war removes bike lanes even if it doesn't create parking or improve traffic. They think no one should bike, cyclists getting hurt is the goal.

just me being weird but the ECB-Park intersection isn’t 5-points or anything! it’s a simple intersection of two streets… that are morbidly distended. Fixable! @voiceofsandiego.org @bellamayaross.bsky.social below to be improved but voila bsky.app/profile/jtd....

This judge is a menace. Why is age an excuse, as if her own age was a surprise to the driver? If she had remorse beyond crocodile tears why did she hide her money from her victims' family? If she was so sad about her husband dying in a crash why didn't she avoid driving dangerously?

People outside cars don’t have any value in California.

This is all effed up. @sdpd.bsky.social has killed its press pass and parking placard program for news media. This idiotic action will severely cramp our ability to cover the news. City must reverse this edict. Now!

It's been a ~ decade since Trump came on the political scene but the whole time I've been shocked by the degree to which "progressive Democrats" in blue cities have had identical land use, housing, and street safety/transportation/climate policies as Trump. Maybe they should stop doing that?

If pulling out protected bike lanes is now MAGA Trumpist, does that mean progressive city councils that claim to oppose Trump have to stop pulling out protected bike lanes? Asking for a whole bunch of people on bikes in blue/Democratically-governed cities who don't want to be killed by drivers.

She was doing 70 in a residential area. This is why we need mandatory electronic speed limiters in cars. And yes, it should be much easier for people who endanger others to lose their license.

This demon was driving 70 mph on a residential street, murders a couple and their babies standing in front of the library, transfers all her money to not pay any damages to the family on the 4 she murdered and then a judge lets her off with NO PUNISHMENT because she’s filthy rich. This is sickening.

She fucking killed an entire family while speeding in her Mercedes SUV and they’re not going to even take her license away??

It’s impossible to understate how important the 15th St bike lanes are to DC’s connected network, and they’re used by hundreds of people every day, commuters and tourists. This will be an enormous step back if it happens, and I encourage everyone affected to make a huge fuss

Urge the San Diego County District Attorney @summerstephan.bsky.social: We Need Justice for Hudson! 🚲 @bikesd.bsky.social actionnetwork.org/letters/urge...

San Diego's Pacific Beach community is reeling from the hit-and-run death of six-year-old Hudson O'Loughlin, who was killed while riding his bike. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JQb...

GardaWorld you say? 😡

Bus lane, bike lane projects killed by Adams coming back under Mamdani

If @governor.ca.gov is serious about California taking up leadership of climate change mitigation, step 1 is to stop spending billions on highways while our transit systems suffocate trying to pay 2026 costs with 2019 funding mechanisms.

They say that school drop-off accounts for 25% of morning traffic. Every time I bike my kid to preschool on a city schools holiday, it becomes clear that 100% of the stressed out, inconsiderate, texting drivers we encounter on a daily basis our fellow parents.

Finally, a real "Get Shit Done" mayor.

King County transit advocates: the county council will be holding a meeting as its transportation benefit district on Wed 2/25 at 5:30pm. This is the first chance for the public to weigh in on a potential county transportation funding measure this year. mkcclegisearch.kingcounty.gov/MeetingDetai...

WWCJD?

should be an automatic revocation of their license

Found myself driving around costco in Temecula—ya’ll. I have never been more resolute in my understanding that car dependency causes an erosion in our social fabric and is a detriment to Americans finding joy in daily errands. Miserable experience.

Definitely sick of this garbage behavior. #sandiego #bikesky #safestreets

I merely dabbled in urbanism before having kids but became fully radicalized by pushing a stroller down subpar sidewalks and trying to find safe routes for my kids to ride their bikes.

Have you seen a local business benefit from Complete Streets—like sidewalks, bike lanes, or more transit? 🚶🏽‍♀️🚲🚆 @smartgrowthamerica.bsky.social is collecting stories that show how these investments pay off for local economies. www.smartgrowthamerica.org/knowledge-hu...

I want to see a pie chart of budget operating costs showing the infinitessimal slice that is library/ transit/ bike network completion. Then I want the time spent debating converted to cost in salaries on the nearly invisible slice. Maybe include the salary costs of redundant staff reports.

Zohran has announced a fix for the Ashland Place bike lane left by Adam's corruption. After these obvious fixes it's time to go much bigger.

“I think the current climate in the City Council chambers is one where they are designing traffic projects from the dais. I don’t think they’re respecting the expertise of staff"

Why do we need protected bicycle lanes throughout the City of Chicago? 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Driving in Massachusetts is heavily subsidized, costing taxpayers billions, yet roads get little scrutiny. Our Harvard study shows Crossrail would save riders billions and support housing. It’s time to rethink how we spend on transportation. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/10/m...

In 2022 I inquired w San Ramon staff wrt protected bikeway upgrades via upcoming paving, per their 2018 bike plan, on Dougherty Rd where NFL coach Greg Knapp was killed while biking in 2021 by a driver who drifted into the painted bike lane. I received no reply & the bike lane is still paint-only.

Cars ruin everything.

When it comes to making our streets work better, political leadership is the key ingredient. This is great news.

Eighty five more people were killed by cars in Los Angeles than New York City despite the latter having over twice the population as the former.

Los Angeles is now paving only portions of streets as justification for bypassing required safety improvements, safety improvements strongly favored by city voters.

Alameda wins the award for the first East Bay separated bikeway completion of 2026, so far, with 0.7 mi on Aughinbaugh Way via routine paving. This is the first ever separated bikeway on Bay Farm island. (thanks for the photo @bikewalkalameda.bsky.social !)

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

Walking, biking, and transit got a million people downtown yesterday but let’s fill the streets with cars again and pretend it never happened.
