I love waitwait, but not wild about this week's segment mocking parents who take kids to chiropractor care. For some kids with cerebral palsy or other conditions it can make a big difference. Why shame parents who are trying to do best for their kids? cpfamilynetwork.org/resources/blog…

How can community members become more engaged in transportation decision making? The Wasatch Transportation Academy at University of Utah was piloted in 2022, supported by NITC and in consultation with Utah Governor's Office of Planning and Budget Utah DOT Utah Transit Authority - UTA Salt Lake County Salt Lake City Government & Wasatch Front Regional Council. nitc.trec.pdx.edu/news/wasatch-t…

Inaugural commute ride on TriMet's FX2. Time to get back on transit!

Nice work @DrTaraGoddard! Beyond people being priced out of safety, I wonder about the impacts of the negative safety externalities on lower income communities (maybe offset by the likely negative correlation with vehicle size?)

There's a giant motorcade rolling through Portland. Anyone know what for?

Just purged my follows and imagine I'll be deactivating Twitter in the near future. Regardless I'll shift to posting more transportation and research related stuff over at LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/nathan-mcne…). Open to suggestions on other places to enegage!

Hey Portland, this is a great opportunity to get your BIKETOWN on!

I can be found on Mastodon at mas.to/@mcneil.

The NITC reception is definitely a highlight, saying hello to old friends Nathan McNeil 🚲 mas.to/@mcneil & asking Earl Blumenauer how the 🚲🚦on the new Bridge is doing #TRBAM

Why does #DaylightSaving having to take an hour from my Sunday? Can’t we all agree it should take an hour out of Monday instead, like maybe skipping from 4 to 5 pm?

Yeah, Twitter. I’m not gonna do this for you. 🤷

Hey BIKETOWNpdx: is it still possible to unlock a bike without a smartphone?
