The KC Streetcar 🚊💙 is expanding — what happens next? For @kcbeacon, I break down the new tax and special assessment coming to parts of KC — and how to stay informed on all those pesky road closures. Report for America thebeacon.media/stories/2021/0…

Fortunately, there are other tools out there. It’s time for federal regulations to reflect this. x.com/nacto/status/1…

There always seems to be this perceived battle between "drivers" and "cyclists" in cities... 🚗🚲 If you're a "driver" sick of sitting in traffic, you should be an advocate for creating and empowering more "cyclists," even if you never intend to step foot on a bike.

A natural oasis in the heart of downtown @KCMO. The Port KC team works hard to maintain and restore the #BerkleyPark trails and native plantings. Please come enjoy them! #KC

After a month since installation, the planters at the Volker Traffic Calming Project are filling out very nicely with (mostly) native plants!

New report finds that Boston has seen an 80% increase in bikeshare usage as a result of dedicated bike lanes. Traffic is rising to pre-COVID levels and dedicated bike lanes may be the solution. It's #OurMove, MA! #mapoli mass.streetsblog.org/2021/07/22/res…

Happy #FeelGoodFriday! We want to give great big sweaty high fives to the public works teams doing the physical work to make our streets #PlacesforPeople. This crew is installing pre-cast curbs to add an extra layer of protection for those using #KCMO's Gillham cycle track.

This beautiful curb extension in the Westport neighborhood of Kansas City, Mo helped slow travel speeds by 45% and shortened pedestrian crossings in half! We are looking to do much more of this, so if your neighborhood or city is in need of safer streets, give us a shout!

Little things matter. Port KC is updating and repainting crosswalks and other street signaling throughout #BerkleyPark. But we are committed to BIG changes that will make the riverfront one of the most pedestrian friendly places in KC. #VisionZero

This is us KCMO… Literally these pictures are of Kansas City, MO. This is what happened to our city in the name of “progress”. Doing so wrecked our tax base, our environment, and our own health…
