in other words, most of the city's traffic engineering is made up and vibes-based

the one intersection that didn't get a 4-way stop continued to see incidents, including (yep) cars going into people's yards. the residents on that corner fought NDOT for months (after our ability as CMs to request such signs was taken away by a certain ex-director) and finally got them installed

not the same, obviously, but I remember an eval showing speed reductions on 10th Ave S after residents successfully got three stop signs, at least one of which was against engineers' wishes. this was right after bike-lane flex posts were installed, too. that street is night and day from 10 years ago

before stop sign: multiple drivers ran cars into resident's fence, yard, and house before stop sign. she wrote me a letter to read to TPC saying her grandchildren couldn't play in her yard because it wasn't safe

after stop sign: no cars in her yard or house

look at me. i'm the traffic engineer now

¿Por qué, mi amigazo? ¿Ya no tienes ganas de trabajar? No te preocupes, chavo, disfrútete bien hoy! Siempre hay más que hacer. Lo importante es dar cuenta que hay mucha belleza en este mundo si sabemos donde buscarla.

Everyone who could do something about this is on this app. They absolutely see Katherine's posts. She points out low cost fixes that could save lives. And yet

I hear there's a park across the street that they love to use for private events

hey @nashvilledot.bsky.social stop telling bike riders to get up on the sidewalk just to cross a disgustingly huge intersection safely. amateur hour stuff

this project has more than $1m in private funding on it and has had multiple start dates, including last summer. so I'd say it's a particularly egregious example of their consistently bad information

given they have been saying they'd start in Q1, after years of delays, I'd say save the statue materials for bike racks

living in the same place and having the same phone number your whole adult life is crazy. people just pop up out of nowhere, like a tv series guest appearance from nine seasons ago. no regard for character development
