@WilsonKM2 What does it cost to service our city? #CityMakingMath
“Local stores next to the protected bike lane have seen a 49% increase in sales, compared to an average of 3% for Manhattan as a whole.” (Among MANY public benefits.) Want To Make Money? Build A Business On A Bike Lane. #CityMakingMath Via @FastCompany. fastcompany.com/90182112/want-…
If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study. This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice. #citymakingmath
“The truth about a city’s aspirations isn’t found in its vision. It’s found in its budget.” — @BrentToderian #CityMakingMath
“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath fastcompany.com/3062989/50-rea…

The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife

@evbnb_ie @SCCycleBus We give negligible city roadspace to buses or bikes in #Galway . That's why it's more attractive for you to drive into the city instead of driving to the nearest town and taking the bus. But it's also why the city is clogged and inefficient. #CityMakingMath
This would definitely help Texas 🚉 Build the train & no more highway widening. #CityMakingMath #RailInfrastructure @TxDOT @TxDOTSanAntonio

It’s estimated that one Skytrain transit line in #MetroVancouver replaces between 20 & 26 lanes of freeway vehicle traffic. And then consider the amount of PARKING it replaces, how much pollution & GHG emissions it replaces, how much public cost it replaces. #CityMakingMath

Galway 1262mm per year. Half the days (183) there's no precipitation at all. And Galway is wet. If you love someone from Galway and want a nice gift for them, get them good raingear. Even if they'll only use it one day out of seven. #CityMakingMath
