Theyāre building a new bike path in my neighborhood, and part of it is being built on top of a former gravel parking lot for a park. Unfortunately, drivers havenāt received the memo, and keep parking on the base for the new trail, forcing the construction crew to redo it no less than three times.

I love how "new bike lanes" is the headline, when this project is SO MUCH more.
Anyways, show up to support something that includes ADA complaint ramps, new sidewalks and general pedestrian and bicylicst safety measures.

SB Milwaukee bike lane south of Western looks like it was partially cleared. But whoever clears the snow at 1800 N. Milwaukee needs to be told not to push snow into the bike lane.

One problem with AVs that always gets waved away is the timeline: so when does adoption become ubiquitous? 50 years? 100?
Even if they perfect the technology, Tesla & Waymo ain't giving those cars away. Our crappy car-centric infrastructure will be majority-human-driver for the foreseeable future.
David Zipper@davidzipper.bsky.social
āThereās a public health imperative to quickly expand the adoption of autonomous vehicles.ā Would the author say the same about building bike lanes? Installing automatic traffic cameras? Requiring Intelligent Speed Assist? All of those are proven to save lives ā and at a fraction of AVs' cost.

A busy, more car-centric suburb like Brookfield looks like this in Amsterdam, etc. Perfectly safe for kids or anyone else outside a car. We donāt have this because we donāt care, thatās it. You also can ride almost anywhere between towns without a gap in the bike paths.
Hackney Cyclist@hackneycyclist.bsky.social
A very typical Dutch one-stage crossing. In the UK cyclists often get two or more crossing stages at busy roads. If drivers arenāt expected to stop halfway, why should bikes or pedestrians? Two-stage crossings exist to keep cars moving, not people safe.

Right wingers & reactionaries lost when Brooklynās Court Street gained a bike lane.
Itās now safer, quieter, easier to cross the street, bikes and cars arenāt intermixed, and car traffic doesnāt speed only to halt at reds.
And contrary to their lies, ambulances move just fine:

Precisely when we need the Mayor and national government to support and accelerate the adoption of sustainable transport options like car-sharing and electric vehicles, they're doing the opposite and making it less and less attractive to make sustainable choices. www.mylondon.news/news/trā¦.
