Quote of the Year 2021 "Catastrophic, all-pervasive, climate breakdown is now inevitable. It's vital that we act, and fast, to slash emissions, so that catastrophic doesn't become cataclysmic" Bill McGuire Professor of Geophysical & Climate Hazards University College London 🧵
It made my whole weekend 🙌🏼
It made my whole weekend 🙌🏼
My friend sent me this video of her daughter sharing what she learned about cars today at school...and wants to know how we can help people walk and use other things besides cars... future @GretaThunberg & @waroncars advocate. #earthdaylessons
These two love their #walks together. #eastcoastgreenway #boston #charlestown @ECGreenway #multimodalmom
When you can walk in the middle of the city with your #toddler and not worry about cars...blissful
Just trying to get to the playground...🙄
Cars don't just consume energy, they consume space. Electric cars are still cars, leaving the same footprint on cities. The urban revolution won't be cleaner cars or better apps but cities designed so you don't need to drive in the first place. 🚌🚇🚲🚶🏾♀️ nytimes.com/2021/02/18/opi…
We had our first family bike ride today. My daughter loved it. My husband summed up bike life with the fact that “our lives just got so much easier and more fun.” 🚲 👏🏻#multimodalmom #bikelife #bike #familybiking #bikeboston
Talking about the Future of Transportation Caucus w/@StreetsBoston & @RepPressley My daughter is a fan. #VirtualStreetTalk
At least there’s a warning that the sidewalks pretty awful. #coronawalks #sidewalk
Public space dedicated for people walking has never been more sacred yet we have a whole street in Oakland with cars parked across the sidewalk. How? Why? #oakland #COVID19 #socialdistancing #parking #sidewalk
Perfect 👌🏼 We’re experts at “keeping our outdoor activities within walking distance.” -@alertsf #FlattentheCurve #walk #stopthespread #walkingdistance #sfbayarea
#SocialDistancing done easy when you have so many options and space to walk. Thanks @OakDOT for this gorgeous #cycletrack and biking & walking paths. #publicspace #oakland #lakemerritt #FlattenTheCuve
Huge hat tip to @cliffordlevy and @WinnHu in @NYTMetro for heeding Streetsblog’s advice to cover the cycling surge — and getting big news from @NYC_DOT. Thanks and you’re welcome! nytimes.com/2020/03/14/nyr…

"It’s important for people to recognize the telltale signs of an unfixable bike, so they don’t buy one. But more importantly, manufacturers need to stop building 'gotcha' bikes — and retailers need to stop selling them." Via @uspirg. bit.ly/3sxveDx
@MultiModalMom @MassDCR @CityofMelrose Also south border in Medford! Almost got run over there with my son and nephew by a guy trying to pass the car that stopped for us!
Think this is the first time that my New Year’s Resolution came true a day early as we will be distributing an additional 5,000 COVID test kits on Tuesday, January 4th and we ordered 20,000 more using the state’s new contract which we expect to arrive in two weeks!
@MultiModalMom @MassDCR I'm convinced @MassDCR doesn't want people (regardless of how they get there) in this section of the Fells. They have, what, maybe 25 car parking spaces along that 2 mile stretch of Fellsway East? Just odd for a flagship hiking area in the Boston Metro.
I just watched #DontLookUp Can confirm. We are so fucked.
9/ I spent over a decade in urban economic development before pivoting into mobility. I still follow the field closely. This piece – arguing that ec dev should focus more on transportation access and less on tax incentives – was a passion project. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
8/ On the other hand, this @CityLab story was...the opposite of viral. 🤷♂️ But the topic is important! In the 1800s US cities could nix mobility tech they didn’t want. Now, due to preemption, they’re stuck w/ iffy "solutions" like flying cars & ride hail. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
7/ Sometimes I throw myself into a new topic without quite realizing what I’ve gotten myself into. This @Slate article about the safety risks of flashy infotainment systems was a beast to research, but it reached a broader audience than I'd expected. slate.com/business/2021/…
3/ I had fun writing this piece for the @washingtonpost, puncturing five myths about highways – each of which props up the USA’s autocentric approach to transportation planning. washingtonpost.com/outlook/five-m…
2/ This might be the article I’m most proud of. We've long known that urban highway expansions can’t solve congestion – and yet billions of $ are still wasted pretending otherwise. I talked to historians, state DOTs, and engineers to understand why. bloomberg.com/news/features/…
1/ Has the transportation world seen a year with more uncertainty and turmoil? I doubt it. I wrote 25+ articles in 2021, covering topics ranging from the surge in US traffic deaths to the dubious future of autonomous vehicles. Here are a few that seemed to rile people up: 🧵
My dad is at rest. Thank you Tshezi for all you have been to our family and the world. Lala ngo xolo Desmond Mpilo Tutu.

A bike is effectively an extension of your body. A car is a multi-ton machine you operate and often fail to control. Merry Christmas! 🎄
