WHAT DID Y’ALL THINK IT MEANT
High speed rail from Vancouver to San Diego.
PSA: This is what many future Toronto suburbs look like if housing is affordable. (It is not what near-downtown or major transit areas should look like)
The thing that Democratic leaders need to understand is that voters want to see results! they want to see transit being built that makes their commute better and solar panels & wind farms that provide clean energy voters don’t care about lawyers writing 4,000 page studies

Amsterdam is currently removing about 1,500 on-street car parking spaces per year—with a goal of 10,000 eliminated from 2019 to 2025. A part of the Herengracht was recently restored to its former glory; offering a glimpse at what a car-free canal ring could eventually look like.
Chuck reacts to the Vancouver Police Department keeping the public safe from fast-moving pedestrians. h/t @Boenau
Awesome. Let’s bring that energy to pedestrian deaths which are up ~68% (per 100K pop) since 2010 while NHTSA has done exactly nothing. The pedestrian “safety standards” written by the auto industry are voluntary, self-graded, pass/fail and don’t impact safety ratings [sales].

Reviving an old non-operational coach into a premium eatery, the first “Rail Coach Restaurant” was commissioned at Andheri Railway Station in Mumbai, Maharashtra, serving appetising grubs with a refined coach-like ambience.
Chicago originally having 9 different intercity train stations will always be hilarious
i sat on a panel w/ a noted developer in seattle just 3 years ago who told me that we don't need air conditioning in seattle because it always drops to 50s at night in summer our buildings were designed for a climate that no longer exists.

Not only should it not be widened. 35 should be removed with all interstate traffic re-routed to 1, 183, and 130

We need to completely shift our thinking from Why is that child riding next to that truck to Why is that truck driving next to a child.

Updated look at development activity along the eastern portion of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT and future Ontario Line, including the latest Transit-Oriented Community (TOC) proposed at Thorncliffe Park Station. If you built it, they will come… #Toronto #urbanplanning #transit

. @Marriott, I moved the junk you left in the bike lane to the sidewalk. If I have to move them again, they're going into the nearest trash can.
There are so many examples of places where cars were absolutely necessary…until they weren’t.

@jeremy_nothere Fully grade separated versions of these projects
Baltimore only built 2 rail lines and then quit. What's unfortunate is that If we had only built these two rail lines (that are currently being studied), it would have been a pretty solid system on its own
High speed rail from Vancouver to San Diego.
