“Should we put these in the buffer for a little separation? Or even just out of the way?” “No, just block it.” @DPW_RichmondVA- give me access to your barrels and cones for a week and I’ll make the city respectable. @CityRichmondVA @LevarStoney @AnnCan2020 @andreasrva
“Emissions from the motor sector could have fallen by more than 30% between 2010 and 2022 if vehicles had stayed the same size.” theguardian.com/environment/20…
Traffic engineers won't allow bollards at most US street intersections because cars will hit them and be damaged. Yes, that will happen. It's not the worst outcome.

It looks like all of LA is on the 405 right now. But...how many people is this? And, better yet, how many trains would it take to move them? Let's do the math. 🧵

New Johns Hopkins report finds that narrower street lanes are safer. For roads with 30-35 mph speed limits, 10-12 ft lanes "have a significantly higher number of crashes compared to those with 9 ft lanes." narrowlanes.americanhealth.jhu.edu
@robrezee Condon can't understand that time he made 10 burgers for 12 people and they complained they were hungry, and next week he made 12 burgers and 15 people showed up and they still complained they were hungry. Clearly making more burgers doesn't address the issue.
It’s really wild to watch how *incredibly* uncomfortable someone can be trying to ride 20-40 lb bike or scooter in a quiet neighborhood when they never think for a second about operating a 3500 lb car at 70 mph.
Wow, this 11 year old isn't watching for the driver to run the stop sign and drive off. What was that kid thinking?! PSA: this is what ped and bike safety people keep saying: these are not equivalent actors. One of them has a 4500 lb projectile and a stop. The other has the RoW

In this video, the pedestrian is walking in the middle of the day in the intersection after activating a set of flashing lights. The driver is staring at his phone. These two things are not "a two-way street."

To sell more cars, the Nat'l Auto Dealers Assn wanted more roads and parking. So it wrote scripts for local broadcasters to read on air as news. They included scripted statements that were to be attributed to a local auto dealer speaking as a concerned citizen. (NADA, June 1952)
Here we have a blighted Pizza Hut in South Burlington. A developer wants to turn it into 30 housing units, commercial space, and a bank. The local review board is saying no. Mind blowing. It’s a perfect encapsulation of this area’s counterproductive politics on development. 1/12
You can't operate as a gardener without a big 4x4 apparently... 100kg in the front (which will also take a lawnmower). Even more with the trailer. (which was loaded with rubble when I saw it!)

"running red lights may kill a lot of people, but it also helps a lot of people get to work on time, so, it;s impossible to say if its bad or not," is de facto US municipal transportation policy and I think that's bad
"we can't control reckless behavior" is not a serious argument when there have been literally zero consequences for many decades
anyone responding to this about how unfair or unequitable it would be should have to say it to the face of a parent whose child got run over
red light cameras, income-based fines, three strikes & you're out license suspensions. this would instantly start to reverse the complete culture of reckless impunity that we have now and no one will do it because everyone's brains are broken.
People will complain with a straight face about the injustice of red light cameras rather than the deaths of entirely preventable crashes caused by red light runners. chicagotribune.com/news/breaking/…

@harryh @sam_d_1995 If their tastes cause ecological damage (commuting 90 minutes a day), that is not the case.
@harryh if you like this good for you but 1) it shouldn’t be subsidized/mandated via urban highways and single family zoning 2) it isn’t the “best real estate in the world”
idk why someone would pay a million dollars to live in an unwalkable neighborhood 45 minutes from the city where your only food options are fast food chains and your neighbors will sue you if you paint your house a different color
This is the best real estate in the world. 1:1:1 Chipotle to Chick-Fil-A to Crumbl ratio. More HOAs per capita than anywhere on Earth. Only 3.5% property taxes. Only 45 minutes to downtown Dallas. Every house has a privacy fence. Current entry level price: $1.2 million
@johnedwinmason Yes it’s so blatant. Racism and car centric planning go together
Republicans for more government control of private property
This is a good warning for us in Chesterfield. As local governments move away from single family home zoning to apartments and condos, our traffic gets worse, schools overcrowd, and quality of life diminishes. We need to protect our communities from over-development.…
Tomorrow I will be in the pages of @amconmag writing for @david_cowan's @TheAmSystem about weak property rights as the root cause of the housing crisis.
Spot on 👇👇 Higher density lowers the cost of building, which makes rents and mortgages cheaper. It’s better for our air and water, and it complements public transit — which we need more of in metro Richmond
@thedrmikejones My mind was working overtime to figure out where he devised this from. As a Chesterfield renter, I’m frequently appalled when instead of advocating for smart growth, folks say we should stunt growth. That will only deepen our region’s housing crisis.
@GlenSturtevant You're completely wrong. The worst possible environment for traffic is low density suburban sprawl. When you separate uses so much it dramatically increases VMT per capita and precludes short trips from using alternative transportation.
