RIP Richard Belzer. 😢
I think I've found the widest freeway in Europe. It's in... Holland. It's 14 travel lanes wide, the same width as the Katy Freeway. It's the A4 near Schiphol Airport. And the Dutch are planning a similarly wide freeway at the A27 near Utrecht.
Cars let people go where they want, when they want, with whom they want, on the route they want, making all the stops they want, while carrying all their stuff, resulting to a high standard of living. The resources we devote to cars is commemorate to their utility.

I’m reminded of my favorite photo of Trump taken by a young woman who was at dinner with her boyfriend at Mar-a-Lago. News broke that North Korea fired a test missile and Bannon, Flynn, and aides were in a panic, papers flying. Meanwhile Trump smiled for the woman and her camera.
Happy birthday, John Carpenter!

@USCSportsTalk Bechtel never offered to build Alt 6 and said there were too many construction issues with Alt 6. They’ve been designing Alts 4/5 for over 3+ years. I’m sure they’re happy to build Alt 6 with their technology if Metro pays for another 4 years of design and construction escalation

@StreetsblogLA @WarrenJWells They said there would be 0 residential displacements. Not sure why you highlighted goods movement and complete streets. Most Goods Movement funds go to electrification. Most Complete Streets funds go to multimodal improvements and the Shoemaker bridge (narrowing+multimodal).
In 1970, a roundtrip ticket from NYC to London cost $550. Blue-collar workers earned around $3.93 per hour (wages and benefits). Today, the ticket price has dropped to $467, and blue-collar workers earn $36.15 an hour. The time price has fallen by 90%. humanprogress.org/flying-abundan…

Cars offer direct transportation between an unlimited number of unique locations, on your schedule, scalable for trips around the block, across town, or across the country. The space we devote to cars is easily commensurate to their extraordinarily high utility.
@allengraetz @criticalurban @ec0anarch0 Cars take up a lot of space. They are an inefficient way to transport a large number of people around a city.
Happy Birthday Aron! We are still keeping our ears open my friend. 🖖🏼
@acbowen Should help drivers better access the park, so probably money well spent.
@StreetsblogLA @JoeLinton You both agree that it is appropriate to dump on the retirement of a government employee that had a career focused on improving public transit. It is for different reasons, but that's the horseshoe theory aspect of it.
@StreetsblogLA @JoeLinton Horseshoe theory unfortunately applies when Streetsblog LA agrees with Fred Rosen to dump on the retirement of a government employee that spent his career working to improve transit.
@schneider These elements are managed as such based on the needs of the population at large and the infrastructure required by those masses to function efficiently and expediently.
@schneider That doesn't detract from the fact that freeways can be used by buses and therefore count as bus infrastructure. They're also motorcycle and truck infrastructure. They are a very inclusive transportation mode.
