I’m going to London next week! 🇬🇧 I’d love recommendations for good urbanism and street design to check out in the city. 👀 For example, I’m already planning on visiting the Barbican Centre and finding a Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) to explore. Recs welcome! Please share! 🙏
🌎 In celebration of #EarthDay yesterday, our crossing guards & engagement team helped students at Summitt Elementary School safely walk to Milwood Library for a scavenger hunt, snacks & story time. 🚸📖 Learn more about the Safe Routes to School Program: bit.ly/45iQE7F

I-35's new footprint will devour 54 acres of land, forcing out more than 100 homes and businesses. The highway's increased capacity will bring more urban sprawl, air pollution, climate warming gases and noise. Here's what exactly is planned: l8r.it/szqD
excited to see the final decisions for @austinmobility's improvements to the shoal creek trail - engineering & design details for the funded elements of all 3 sections will "begin in the coming months" with construction following. traffic calming measures begin this spring tho

In 2022, Austin piloted a guaranteed income program. The city gave 135 low-income families $1,000 a month for a year. What did they spend most of the money on? Housing. kut.org/austin/2024-01…
What do you think of the Barton Springs Road safety pilot? Any ways it could be improved? Austin Transportation & Public Works is taking feedback now. To keep and build on these improvements, it's crucial for them to hear from you. Here's the survey: surveymonkey.com/r/NCTJMZJ
31 Austin low water crossings are closed on Monday morning due to heavy rain. This is the crossing at Old Spicewood Springs Road in North Austin. Turnaround don’t drown.
Our friends at the @NWSSanAntonio predict a cold front on Sunday. Be #WeatherReady and protect your people, pets, plants and pipes.
🗳️ When voters approved the 2016 Mobility Bond, Austin set a goal to build 50 miles of sidewalk by 2024. ✅ The City has completed that goal early, building 56 miles of sidewalks by the end of 2023. 🚧 There's still plenty of work to do. More info here: bit.ly/47hYjnk

Wow, today is just really gorgeous. Great weather (sun!!), book club meeting FULL of beautiful souls, a cool and breezy walk home to the bus through like a hundred lightning bugs?? Nothing but joy in this moment. 🫶🏼
OK my read on this is TxDOT felt the need to publish some I-35 propaganda which means activism is working
Texas has one of the world’s largest economies, and much of that success can be attributed to one road. #TxDOTNewsroom ow.ly/oZKY50Rje1W

you can just not read the book. no need to tell me about it.
@megankimble @TexasStandard I’m not likely to read your book though I respect you for writing it. As a lifelong Austinite, I’m confident I could easily win a debate with you over what the best future of I-35 and other transportation infrastructure for my hometown ought to be. #respect
