so someone definitely crashed their car onto the tracks on MLK right?

i know i’m beating a dead horse but we really goofed by not blowing up the west seattle bridge when it started cracking and replacing it with a new bridge with a rail ROW. it’s insane that we appear poised to build an entire new high-level bridge for trains to just serve two stations

i don’t think we as seattle urbanists don’t talk enough about boren ave

the people above me at the viewpoint are discussing the insanity that was cars being allowed to drive through pike place market and how silly it was for businesses to oppose pedestrianization 🥰

truly the city of no fun allowed! why the hell is the best beach in town open later during the winter than during the summer?

it's interesting that Seattle's got its own version of "who was president in 2020" now

my friend took a picture of me absolutely ripping around a skate bowl and i think it looks pretty cool 😎

banning spending on harm reduction is so evil, and is utterly rich coming from a councilmember who is a recovering alcoholic. i can’t wait for her to be out of the council

“one seattle” has always been a funny thing for someone from the green area to say. i’m excited for our renter-majority city to be represented by a renter!

omg he’s going to run for county council d2, isn’t he

Nearly 1,100 days after safety advocates painted a guerrilla crosswalk at Harvard Ave E and E Olive Way (and SDOT washed it off), there is now a permanent crosswalk here.

performance art, basically 🤷

going into an hour and a half long jazz band rehearsal during which election results will come out 😬😳

folks how do we think the lake washington working families coalition would feel about reducing lanes on aurora avenue?

scariest part of halloween is the big dumb truck outside my apartment the morning after! bike for scale

guys do you remember when i painted a crosswalk here at olive and harvard three years ago and sdot ground it off a day later cause they said it created a false sense of safety? anyways we’re finally getting a legit one installed!!!

shoutout to my local trolleybus route being like kinda full after only three stops! headed downtown on a weekday morning i’m counting twenty riders and it’s crazy to me that the neighborhood was without local transit service for multiple years after the old route 47 was suspended during covid

my luck of seeing the Sounder N Line from cool places continues! who can recognize this spot?

your boss who insists on return-to-office:

is this the same SPD that’s critically understaffed?

coming to you live from the east mercer street end on lake washington, which despite showing as a park on my map layer, and as an un-owned right of way on king county parcel viewer, is very very private

i made a little video about recent reporting by @typewriteralley.bsky.social on mayor harrell’s involvement in lake washington boulevard’s safety saga

exactly what i love to see coming back to the hill after 13 hours including work and 42 miles on the bike 🙃🙃🙃

anecdata refuted by this house in greenwood/phinney

fall in streissguth gardens >>>

i see so many of these “better bike lanes” barriers knocked out of place by drivers because sdot can’t find a way to anchor them to the ground

this is textbook trump cadence lol

for my second morning in a row, i’m disappointed that amtrak does not offer a full espresso bar in the lounge car. i’m tired of this shitty starbucks drip

Fall Bitches Already Fondly Gazing at Summer’s Sweet Demise: tinyurl.com/yc574b4r

none of these people know they’re about to get kicked off the train at the next stop. why is sound transit so bad at communicating service disruptions? they happen often enough they should be good at it 😭

i see no reason why the bus i’m on shouldn’t be using the shoulder to bypass all this traffic

tonight i just so happened to be pedaling on the elliot way bridge over the railroad downtown as a sounder train rolled out of the great northern tunnel

I made a cheatsheet to help you distinguish btwn Seattle ppl who love housing, ppl who love trees, ppl who love both, & ppl who love NEITHER. If you find yourself accidentally falling for propaganda or getting confused about who is who, just refer here! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

seen across the street from each other in view ridge

your yearly reminder that college kids moving in to their dorms are more important than cyclist safety into one of the largest job centers in the region

mount vernon pedestrianized Pine St! once again small cities in washington absolutely lapping seattle on certain aspects of urbanism

why is amtrak positively incapable of running on time 😭

thrift store find of the day: vintage northgate transit center mug

was the super heavy smoke in north seattle caused by the convergence zone?

have we tried not making sound transit build car infrastructure?

sitting under the aurora bridge, watching the boats go by, thinking about how whimsical and iconic a ballard/queen anne/fremont/SLU ferry route would be

omg subaru brought back the brat!

no ballot box band tonight, but there is a skykomish-based king county sheriff, for some reason 🤔

hey @seattlebikeblog.com @westseattlebikeblg.bsky.social @jeremycole.bsky.social @westseattlebikedad.bsky.social do y’all know anything about this curb cut at the bottom of the avalon bike lane right before the bridge? it’s super unsafe and poorly signed. it needs speed bumps or something similar

in the wise words of @jeremycole.bsky.social: “bicycle touring is not a weight loss strategy”

anyone got rob saka’s address? i’ve got a package to forward

those new airo trainsets can’t come soon enough! all southbound trains from seattle except the first (7:10a) and last (7:50p) are sold out! so now i must replan my weekend :(

hate that our waterfront is a highway but damn does it make for a good parade!

the L8 is L8ing again (the bus i’m on is 19 minutes late and got passed by a bus that is only 2 minutes late)

@seattledot.bsky.social bike lanes team 🤝 @seattledot.bsky.social bus lanes team the inability to put non-car infrastructure through choke points and intersections where it really matters
