We had an interesting conversation with @scottwiener.bsky.social yesterday. Major topics we discussed: - how to get big things done in CA - SB-79 - how to deal with pushback and build coalitions - Abundance in the transportation space Thanks for the time, Scott! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-fI...

SB-79 HAS PASSED THE SENATE AND IS ON ITS WAY TO THE GOVERNOR’S DESK

worst housing crisis in the country 🤝 worst traffic in the country. LA needs SB-79. Call your legislator today: streetsforall.org/sb79

final vote on 79 is TODAY have you called your state senator? www.streetsforall.org/sb79

PASSED THE ASSEMBLY - SB 79 (WIENER) will build a ton more housing near transit!!!

We made a YouTube Short picking apart Metrolink’s incorrect and misleading claims regarding electrification of its system. youtube.com/shorts/cn_2s...

We were proud sponsors of AB-645 two years ago which legalized speed cameras in multiple pilot cities across California. We are dismayed to see a total lack of urgency in installing life saving speed cameras in LA. la.streetsblog.org/2025/09/10/l...

LADOT is testing concrete “Toronto barriers” in lieu of plastic bollards along 3rd Street between Main & Spring in DTLA.This could lead to concrete barriers for all protected bike lanes in the city. Let them know you support concrete bike lane barriers over plastic! mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

Three important items at the Transportation Committee meeting this Wednesday! Support wider bike lanes, a pilot program pedestrianizing 6th St in Koreatown, and an update on implementing speed cameras. Take action: mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

We had a robust conversation with @johnericksonwh.bsky.social last night. Topics included Fountain Ave, how to build things faster in California, the K Line Northern Extension, Micromibility, and how to make PCH safer in our lifetimes. Thanks for the time, John! www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hiB...

#NowThatsWhatICallAProtectedBikeLane New concrete Toronto Barriers on 3rd St. bikeway in #DTLA

We are disappointed in LA City Council’s vote to oppose SB-79. Given the worsening housing and climate crises, Angelenos deserve better. Thank you to all the City Councilmembers who supported this bill, as well as our co-sponsors @innercitylawcenter.bsky.social and @abundanthousingla.bsky.social

The crash that killed nine year old Nadir Gavarrete two weeks ago in Koreatown was entirely preventable. The city has a plan and has been working to implement it for *14 years* My latest in the @latimes.com: www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

Bravo @johnericksonwh.bsky.social 👏👏 “Across our state, commonsense projects that would make communities safer, greener, and more livable are caught in an endless tangle of redundant approvals, over-engineered reviews, and bureaucratic inertia.” www.losangelesblade.com/2025/08/12/w...

@ladotofficial.bsky.social is working to make Pico safer between Crenshaw & Figueroa. They’re asking people for feedback about the proposed project, which contemplates both protected and unprotected lanes. Let them know we want a protected bike lane on Pico, and more! mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

✅ PASSED ASSEMBLY LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE: SB 79 by @scottwiener.bsky.social that would end the exclusionary housing policies that have made housing more expensive and transit inaccessible, allowing more people to live within walking distance of quality transit and boosting ridership.

@ladotofficial.bsky.social is working to improve safety along Spring and Alameda St. The Mobility Plan 2035 calls for an unprotected bike lane, and pedestrian improvements – but we can do better! Take their survey to ask for protected bike lanes & more! Learn more here: mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

“The magic happens when a city’s bike network is expansive enough to safely accommodate the bulk of trips. At that point, a wide range of residents may consider using a bike as their primary means of transportation, perhaps ditching their car completely” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

We’ve paid $400M+ in 4 years to people hurt/killed on our streets, more than we’ve spent making streets safer. On Vista Del Mar 20 people have died in 20 years and the city has spent over $15M, without making any improvements. The insanity must stop. www.youtube.com/watch?v=A297...

4+ years ago, WeHo approved protected bike lanes on Fountain. Current timeline doesn’t have them installed until late 2026. Yesterday, another life was lost in yet another hit & run. We can’t wait until next year to save lives; get it in the ground NOW! wehotimes.com/bicyclist-ki...

Why is Fernando Dutra, a councilmember from Whittier, running @metrolosangeles.bsky.social board? He’s never met a highway he didn’t want to widen "[Metro is] not just a train and a bus company… I'll be focusing on making sure we keep our freeways moving freely" la.streetsblog.org/2025/07/09/w...

Can Americans Just Stop Building New Highways? “By blasting their way through cities, Guerra argues, interstate designers sacrificed urban wealth and quality of life, particularly within low-income neighborhoods.” www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

@metrolosangeles.bsky.social's latest design for the North Hollywood to Pasadena BRT removed the protected bike lane on Glenoaks through Glendale because it would have required removal of 30% of the on-street parking! Tell Metro this is unacceptable, more here: mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

This Thursday the California Transportation Commission is considering funding several freeway widenings including the 71 FWY in Pomona. The expensive trend of disastrous highway widening projects MUST STOP! Learn more, and send in a public comment here: mailchi.mp/streetsforal... #destructionfornada

“By quantifying the benefits of getting people out of their cars into more efficient means of travel, they are a game-changer in reallocating public funds from auto-focused infrastructure to ones that induce more walking, cycling, and public transport” dutchcycling.nl/knowledge/be...

Thank you @gavinnewsom.bsky.social for funding California transit in this year’s budget!!!!

Metro has released the draft environmental impact report on its Sepulveda Transit Corridor project! While we support all heavy rail options, we believe Alternative 4 is the best solution, providing the most bang for our buck. Make your voice heard: mailchi.mp/streetsforal...

THIS WEDNESDAY (June 11 at 8:30am) is a supersized joint Transportation and Public Works Committee meeting: better bike lane enforcement, better bike path maintenance, and HLA implementation. Learn more and take action here: mailchi.mp/streetsforal... 📸: LA Times

The Trump Administration has released its report revoking funding for California High Speed Rail. Their legal case is on shaky grounds, and California will win. Here's what CA can do to shore up the future of CA High Speed Rail: - Guarantee $ 1B/year in funding from Cap and Trade - Pass #SB445!

Peak NIMBY brain is trying to keep a neighboring airport open, even though the planes that land there are literally spraying toxins over your home, because if the airport closes then they're going to build affordable housing there. lapublicpress.org/2025/06/sant...

The Authority strongly disagrees with the FRA’s conclusions, which are misguided & do not reflect the substantial progress made. We remain committed to completing the nation’s first true HSR system & will fully address + correct the record in our response to the FRA’s notice.
