Let's start by running a functioning airport first. Crawl, Walk, Run, Emilio.

Better commutes, better lives. @Tri_Rail's proposed expansion brings vital connections for South Florida residents. Kudos to @davedech for the forward-thinking leadership! #TriRail #SoFlo palmbeachpost.com/story/news/loc…
A day after Miami Beach votes 7-0 against a planned train to South Beach, Florida DOT continues with their planned "mega project" including double-decking another highway through urban neighborhoods. City of Miami Beach is supportive.
Even Miami had streetcars.
Precisely how @HerzogdeMeuron envisioned the @pamm. 🤮

If FDOT closed a highway for a year, someone would be impeached. This is unacceptable.

Want to mitigate car accidents and record high pedestrian deaths? Begin converting major intersections to this (@FrankvanCaspel):
Important new research clearly demonstrating one major cause of the pedestrian fatality crisis in the US: Tall hoods. SUVs and trucks are associated with much higher rates of pedestrian deaths.

Brightline saw a 29% increase in ridership from last year, while Amtrak experienced an all-time high in ridership. Stop saying there’s no demand for rail in this country.

The MacArthur Causeway/395 are bumper/bumper entire length. Not bc it's season, rather It's the endless construction -- that doesn't solve the regions traffic woes but instead contributes & induces additional traffic and deepens the car dependency.
TRI-RAIL TO START EXPANDED TRAIN SERVICE INTO DOWNTOWN MIAMI ON JANUARY 13, 2024 ‼️
The worst.
Wish this actually detailed that the project is hundreds (yes, 100s) of millions of dollars over budget and over four years past the initial deadline. Again, no accountability for FDOT.

NOT A SOLUTION! More cars in Miami Beach will not fix traffic. When will you people get it! Adding more water to a bucket that is already full mentality, we need transit! @BikeWalkMB @FixMetroMDT

Good morning from South Beach! Bikeshare station status -- many empty or just 1 or 2 bikes available. People love their bikes on South Beach, even at 9am!
Residents of Miami-Dade: "Can we please have useable public transit here?" Mayor Cava: "LOL No, but there's a direct flight to Japan so you can see what I'm never going to give you."

In train screens are better in nyc and the on platform screens aren’t full of ads but actually show things like stopping patterns and accessible stations. Bus wayfinding is also way better than the TTC which is very bad
Subways: these are harder to compare. The TTC has small network that moves an incredible amount of people. But compared to even local trains on the subway it feels really slow. New York also has dirtier stations but screens and train times actually work unlike TO
New York has no equivalent to the GO bus network which is so good and actually allows for inter suburb trips. Wish the GO buses had bathrooms tho
Regional rail: the New York systems are currently better than GO, but GO has an actual vision for the future and all day service, something the nyc agencies miss. Both systems are too addicted to terrible terminals tho
Busses: New York manages to do less with much much more. Buses are slower and less reliable than Toronto, and they are much less frequent. Toronto has an amazing bus network but it’s let down by the streetcars which feel much closer in reliability to a nyc bus
@NoRiskNoParty Based on this from Yimby - does not look like it - floridayimby.com/2022/02/faa-ap… - The buildings would rise 754-feet, or 766-feet above sea level, and 708-feet, or 720-feet above sea level
@AaronDeMayo Definitely just BS render. I feel like new building renders are getting more and more ridiculous
Mercedes Benz Tower is listed as 67 Floors. But the renderings make it look like its over 1,000'. Do you think each level is averaging 15'6"? Or, the renderings are out of proportion w/ the context?

@wmata @wmataGM @APTA_Transit @APTA_info @icomera @EQUANS_Official @GroupeBouygues The facts speak for themselves. Improving the rider experience is KEY to restoring public transit ridership. #publictransit #APTALeg24 #wmata x.com/yfreemark/stat…
Remarkable: DC's transit system is now leading post-pandemic ridership recovery compared to NYC Transit, Boston MBTA, Chicago CTA & SF BART. Despite fact that DC had the 2nd-biggest ridership drop-off at beginning of pandemic. What's worked? WMATA has really improved service.
@wmata What people want: ✅ Fast, frequent service ✅ Clean, safe, modern facilities ✅ A great onboard experience @wmataGM is driving ridership by focusing on the basics. #APTALeg24 #publictransit
Seamless connection from 🚲 to 🚇! Thanks to @wmata's reduced peak headways on the Red Line, my commute was a breeze. This is the kind of integrated transit experience we need. #APTALeg24
Feeling energized after my morning @bikeshare commute! 🚲 Ready to put some pedal power behind public transit advocacy at #APTALeg24!
Extening the Metromover into the port, with stops at each terminal has many benefits. Bring all these guests straight into and out of the urban core not in single occupancy ride sharing services, freeing up the roads for pedestrian friendly amenities, reduces GHG and pollution.
We used to be a proper country.
