As a bona fide parking nerd, I had to visit HdM’s 1111 Lincoln Rd today while staying in South Beach.
I’ve gotta say, it’s pretty great!

Is that a normal Chicago thing? I’ve never seen anything like that before.

Before (2023) / After (2026) the pedestrianization and greening of a big part of Place Félix Éboué in Paris’s 12th arrondissement. The difference will be even more striking once the trees have leaves ;)

Thank you to everyone who came out for the #AlexPretti memorial ride in Oakland today. It was a huge turnout, even more than shown here at Lake Merritt, as some people peeled off since the start at Rockridge BART. @bikeeastbay.bsky.social @ebbp.bsky.social

If you’re in Denver and want to help plan, I’d welcome the assistance, as I don’t have the ability to marshall folks like I once did.
My wife has been telling me for the past few years that I need to rekindle my activist streak, so I’m shaking off the cobwebs.

Mayor Johnston, bowing to business interests and wealthy families, is moving Denver’s road safety backwards (Opinion) During this latest budget crunch, when DOTI staff members were being laid off and safety projects went unfunded, the city found nearly $100,000 to replace a thoroughly vetted design to accommodate …

As the Co-Chair of the DOTI Advisory Board, I don’t take criticizing the Mayor lightly. But we just hit the highest number ever of people killed in traffic crashes in Denver, and it’s not a priority for Mayor Johnston. Something needed to be said.

And why is the mayor not on here yet? I assume he’s still on the Nazi site.

At the Denver @thewaroncars.bsky.social event and struck by how much this movement has grown since I first got sucked in 15+ years ago.

It appears the fascists have decided that NREL is now an oil and gas research lab.

Why do I love living in Boston? Yo-Yo Ma playing the Bach cello suites before bringing Mayor Wu out to duet for an encore, that’s why.

What's especially fun about yesterday discovering my shoutout in Life After Cars, is that this evening I'm delivering a talk to @wesmars.bsky.social's class at CU Denver on my exploits in tactical urbanism, for I believe the 7th year in a row.
I had to add a slide for the first time in a few years

Got my copy of Life After Cars this weekend and after a tipoff from Doug that there might be a surprise in there, I decided to check out the index.
Just before Fietsersbond, good company!

The guy drove up onto the sidewalk and flattened this sign, then just drove off. I was riding the other way and I saw him careening back across the road toward me and started to bail before he regained control.
