Does your city have awesome group bike rides? #annarbor does! It's Ann Arbor Bike Party, and the first one of the year is TONIGHT at 7pm, meet at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market. One of the best free events around (so I don't know why I have Serious Face 🤣). cc: #a2council
Focusing only on "incremental development” is inadequate and smacks of privilege. We’re 100 years into a truly radical, Jim-Crow-fueled land-control experiment that segregated neighborhoods and froze our most valuable land. We're not going to gentle-density our way out of this.
Here's a natural distribution by county, which is better at showing small but still significant changes at the left end of the histogram,
This too shall pass. #YIMBY #housingemergency #visionzero #parkingmaximums #priceonpollution
TFW you’re filming a walk-and-talk about bad suburban zoning when a sociopath assclown smokes his muscle car next to you in a crowded grocery store parking lot. #visionzero
In response to the killing of 4 Pepperdine students last year by a reckless driver, multiple other high profile crashes resulting in death, countless injuries @CaltransDist7 has put up: Paint on PCH to address speeding/reckless driving Incredibly sad and ineffective.
Highly recommended. And by extension, it should invite us to imagine how the money to rebuild could be used for things that the area actually needs instead.

The solution will never be a louder bell, a stronger helmet or brighter clothing. The solution will always be political will to actually protect people, everything else is a distraction and victim blaming.
Kudos to Columbus for their plan to add devices like armadillos and concrete bumpers to help protect cyclists and calm traffic this spring. (Bumper photo is from Cincinnati; they’re already on it.)
Street redesigns have been delayed due to pressure from neighbors who fear that traffic will “spillover” onto their streets.

“I don’t want to be violently hurt or killed going to the store” is framed as an “advocacy” position rather than something any ordinary person would want. I also don’t want to be shot at the greengrocer. That doesn’t make me a safe shopping advocate. It makes me a normal person.

“The transportation measure essentially compels the city to follow its nearly decade-old Mobility Plan 2035, which was meant to revamp how the city moved by designating specific roads for biking, transit… but has been largely ignored.” #a2council latimes.com/politics/story…
In 2013, @MichiganDOT raised speed limits along several roads in Lansing. MLK Blvd was raised to 45 mph from Jolly to Ottawa. "even though we're raising the speed limit, is that it's safe if a majority of motorists are driving a more consistent speed" Here's the data: no. (1/2)
Install speed tables as fast as you can They don't look like much, but they're saving lives. If speed tables are so good, why are drivers so mad? Because speed tables slow down drivers, drivers who have been conditioned to speed all the time. If drivers are mad, shouldn't…

Holidays | On this #ArborDay it is important to remember that it was fine to clear-cut old-growth forests to build my house 50 years ago, but it's an ecological disaster to clear-cut the old-growth dandelions behind the Whole Foods loading dock to build new apartments. #a2council
AR-15 is absolutely right. I am so sick of the free loading. I propose the “Fair Share Transportation Act.” ALL modes should be priced at their full, true costs including road wear, required land, air and noise pollution, injuries and deaths.
@Boenau Cyclists should be forced to pay the true cost of theie infrastructure. Tolls, licensing, registration, whatever. Infrastructure isn't free and cycling infrastructure has no legitimate business use.
Mlive article: "A car was found nearly vertical after a signpost interfered with its direction of travel. The signpost was not wearing high viz paint, and failed to look both ways. "It came out of nowhere," according to the driver, who was not cited in the accident #a2council

And that sign is my hero and I want all the bollards put up by #a2council to be made just like that sign.
The Antis’ inability to replace old faces with new candidates has been a glaring deficiency. After 2018, they’ve only managed to find two newcomers (Tony Brown in 2020 and Angeline Smith in 2022). By contrast, all ten #A2Council CMs were newly elected in 2020 or later.
Wow. For the first time since I’ve been following things, the #a2Council race is all but over after yesterday’s nominating petition deadline. The only challenger is perennial Ward 4 challenger, Mozhgan Savabieasfahani.

After yesterday’s filing deadline, I am the only Democrat running to represent Ward 3 on #A2Council. Thank you to everyone who has supported me & contributed to our campaign over the last few months. I couldn’t do this without each and every one of you! On to November!
My thoughts on the lack of challengers for this year's #a2council races: If local NIMBYs are so unbothered as to not field a single candidate, it means our electeds are not pushing the needle enough.
@FT @jburnmurdoch This is a very strong piece that should be mandatory reading at @NHTSAgov. Unpacking the US road safety crisis is tricky, but absolutely necessary. Journalists like @jburnmurdoch should be commended when they produce thoughtful pieces like this. ft.com/content/9c936d…
