While this all-way stop is a win for safety and our community, it should not have taken the death of Stephen Debow to bring this change. Our focus must be on preventing tragedies. I will continue to champion further reforms to ensure that our streets are safe for everyone.

🔥 Hot Take Alert! 🔥 It's not about the numbers – it's about creating safer options for everyone's mobility. Just because you don't directly benefit from infrastructure that safeguards others doesn't justify avoiding its development. 🧵

I joined inspiring Safe Streets advocates from @BayAreaFSS, @SDSafeStreets, SoCal Families for Safe Streets & @CirculateSD at @CalBike Summit for a moving panel on 'Working with Crash Victims to Create Change.' We share our stories to prevent others from experiencing our pain."
Honored to moderate @Fam4SafeStreets panel at CalBike summit. Their stories underscore the life-saving impact of street safety infrastructure. To all decision makers: after hearing these narratives, who wouldn't advocate for improved bike & pedestrian infrastructure?
All it takes is leadership and strong conviction.

San Diego's new pavement plan is auto-centric & calls for $1.9B over a decade to maintain current paving. The city could lower costs and advance its climate & street safety goals by reducing pavement - add trees, narrow lanes, and shift travel to walking, biking, & public transit

Okay, this has been annoying me so let’s get into it. A thread: The $446m number comes from SANDAG, not the City. That’s important because we are talking about 41 projects across 18 cities and over 3m people. (1/)

We share our stories to fight complacency because we won’t change this crisis one driver at a time, we have to look upstream for change says @amylcohen @NYC_SafeStreets Co-Founder, mother of Sammy Cohen and #sammyslaw campaigner

👇🏻 I know people who are afraid to fly. They’d rather drive for 2 days bc they’re worried about the plane dropping out of the sky. Instead, we should be afraid of the multi-ton vehicles operated by distracted, regular people using infrastructure designed to let them go fast.

If SF is unwilling to do whatever it takes to prevent the killing of families waiting for the bus, how can we criticize those that resist gun control and only offer thoughts and prayers as consolation? We could end pedestrian deaths if we were serious. missionlocal.org/2024/03/sf-mou…

A teenager was hit by the driver of a white SUV on the corner of Grape and Fern in South Park on 1/29 between 2:00 and 3:30 pm. It was a hit and run. The parents would greatly appreciate any information. Please signal boost and DM me if you saw the crash.
Yesterday, with amazing community support, we replaced Matt's ghost bike. Now, we can say "hi" again & remind all of the life lost here. It was a tough, yet heartening day. San Diegans value safer streets for all. Hopeful this motivates leaders to implement life-saving measures.

This morning I joined street safety advocates to replace the memorial for Matt Keenan, who grew up in La Mesa, & was killed riding his bike. His wife Laura Keenan has channeled her grief into incredible advocacy for street safety, working to help other families avoid such loss.
Grateful to @keenan_bike & @SDSafeStreets working to reinstall Matt’s vandalized Ghost Bike. Ghost Bikes mark a spot where a cyclist lost their life while riding. When you see a white bicycle like this, please take it as a reminder to look out for cyclists and drive safely.
MEDIA ADVISORY - Jan 28, 10:30AM Cyclist Matt Keenan was killed by a wrong-way driver while biking in 2021. On Jan 5, his memorial was burned by an arsonist. Join @SDSafeStreets and allies as we reinstall Matt's memorial. circulatesd.org/reinstallation…
Grateful for community support as we navigate emotions after Matt's ghost bike burning. The arsonist was caught. Fundraising for a permanent memorial for Matt & all traffic victims is ongoing. We're installing a replacement on Sunday at 10:30 am. Join us to back safer streets.

It's another example of why the minimum standard in San Diego needs to be protected bike lanes.
Had a near miss on Meade Avenue biking home from work today. Driver made a sudden right swerve as I rode in the bike lane. He stopped, then I stopped and pleaded with him to watch the road. He still didn’t acknowledge my existence or apologize.

So...this is probably a good time to remind drivers to watch for bicyclists
While this all-way stop is a win for safety and our community, it should not have taken the death of Stephen Debow to bring this change. Our focus must be on preventing tragedies. I will continue to champion further reforms to ensure that our streets are safe for everyone.

🔥 Hot Take Alert! 🔥 It's not about the numbers – it's about creating safer options for everyone's mobility. Just because you don't directly benefit from infrastructure that safeguards others doesn't justify avoiding its development. 🧵
1/ Will @SANDAG put counters on the Pershing Bikeway so that we can learn if it ends up being the "transformative" "game changer" that they & others are predicting? About the only non-recreational bikeway with a usable counter is the 30th St @CityofSanDiego cycle-track project.
This morning, we installed a temporary crosswalk at Chula Vista Community Collaborative’s Day of the Child at #ChulaVista Memorial Park, 373 Park Way. Stop talk a stroll on crosswalk and check out our RC course!

Thank you @AsmChrisWard for addressing the @CalBike summit! We can and will make San Diego, and California, safe for our most vulnerable road users! 🚴 🚶
@keenan_bike @BayAreaFSS @SDSafeStreets @CirculateSD @CalBike Thank you all!
Honored to moderate @Fam4SafeStreets panel at CalBike summit. Their stories underscore the life-saving impact of street safety infrastructure. To all decision makers: after hearing these narratives, who wouldn't advocate for improved bike & pedestrian infrastructure?
San Francisco's first sidewalk-level bike lane promotes pedestrian and bicyclist safety on Third Street in Mission Rock. Challenges remain for clearer design. sf.streetsblog.org/2024/04/09/eye…
All it takes is leadership and strong conviction.
Anne Hidalgo became Mayor of Paris 10-years ago. In that time the City has; 🚲 built 1,300km of bike lanes 🌳 planted 145,000 new trees 💨 reduced air pollution by 40% 🌳added 45km of new parks 📚 converted 180 streets to “school streets” 📍 Paris 🇫🇷 politico.eu/newsletter/glo…
The flashing beacons & continental crosswalks provide increased visibility for pedestrian crossings & are part of our commitment to the #VisionZero goal of eliminating traffic fatalities & severe injuries among all road users–while increasing safe, healthy and equitable mobility.
The City's most recent crosswalks with solar-powered flashing lights were recently installed in #BankersHill! This will help everyone cross safely on Palm Street at Fourth and Fifth Avenues.🚸#SanDiegoatWork
Yesterday was my cousin Jamie's crash anniversary. ❤️🩹 She died 23 years ago. She was 24. It feels AWFUL to be mourning her life for nearly as long as she was alive. And it's immoral that more than 850,000 people have been killed in traffic crashes in the US since 2001.
None these city plans - Pavement Management Plan, Mobility Master Plan, Climate Action Plan - addresses in any way whether San Diego has too much pavement. Excess pavement has impacts on stormwater management, safety, and the condition of the pavement.
There’s an important question that San Diego’s new Pavement Management Plan doesn’t consider: Does San Diego simply have too much pavement? kpbs.org/news/quality-o…
🚲🎉 NEWS: @SDCaltrans + @SANDAG announces funding for separated bikeways along Pacific Highway, following years of advocacy to make this deadly corridor safer. The bikeway will span 5.5 miles from Sea World Dr to Grape St, with network connections to the airport. #VisionZero
@ToddGloria Can you commit to installing a protected bike lane on Pacific Highway? There is currently no safe way to bike from downtown to Old Town. A protected bike lane on Pac Hwy would help us meet our climate goals by connecting downtown to Midway, Old Town, PB and La Jolla.
Fantastic news
