The Whoosh concept is interesting because instead of a point-to-point gondola, you can create a dynamic network to serve unique travel needs (example below).

Full-scale 5-passenger pilot system @whooshtransport coming next! Meanwhile, check out the video discussing the plans📺 #transportation #urbanmobility #15MinuteCity

"I'm sick of reckless bicyclists who don't obey traffic laws"

The "Spiral of Sprawl" can be reversed! Transit creates a virtuous positive spiral: fewer cars on the road=less parking=more land available for more productive uses=more amenities & services=more tax revenue=even more improvements...and it becomes almost self-perpetuating📈⬆️

Capping off a great week with a shoutout in Matthew Yglesias's Slow Boring newsletter! 🚡 #urbanistmoonshots

What's even more perfect than perfect urban density? Perfect urban density with two grocery stores!

"Nobody uses bike lanes"😂

This handsome 6-story building is a great example of how Gentle Density can add much needed housing while also beautifying neighborhoods😍🏨🏨

More commuter rail in Virginia! Virginia Railway Express expanding commuter service in Northern VA, and enabling Amtrak trains to travel beyond Roanoke to Christiansburg and the New River Valley!🚅 Smart Cities Dive #trains smartcitiesdive.com/news/amtrak-vr…

Apparently X/Twitter considers "Sensitive Content" to be showing transit improvements creating better urban neighborhoods🤣Hide the spouse & kids! Don't let them watch this filth! (Watch and judge for yourself!😲)

The new Chicago-Minneapolis Borealis line is a huge success, exceeding all expectations. It's a pleasant way to travel and saves $32 million annually in highway maintenance costs. What other city-pairs would you like to see? #trains thetravel.com/why-americas-n…

👋 Hellooo #Blueprint2024!!! Who's here in Vegas? Swyft Cities is the most interesting built world trend that you haven't heard about yet... Modular mass transit transforms real estate and unlocks urban growth.🚡 I'm here with Swyft Cities founder and CEO Jeral Poskey. Catch up on

Driving in NYC’s urban core has increased the most of any US city over the last 5 years. And congestion is above pre-pandemic levels. I know what would solve it! Congestion Pricing! No, wait a minute🤦‍♀️ bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

It's not just parking among car infrastructure that takes up valuable land that could be used for create more housing

Congestion is now WORSE than pre-pandemic in 24 of the 25 largest US cities even with more work-from-home. "Without significant changes, the upward trend in vehicle-miles-traveled shows no signs of peaking”. Clearly, better solutions are needed StreetLight #transportation

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via Streetsblog USA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/29/pro…

A MUST READ! Naqiy Mcmullen's photos & extensive research on how Atlanta once had one of the largest streetcars & trackless trolleys networks that carried 100M annual riders in a city of only 200k. And how it's a microcosm of what happened to transit everywhere #transportation

Eliminating parking minimums = more, better housing. LA now has several apartment projects with little or even no parking, but great transit access. Thanks to AB2097. Let developers decide how much parking they build. In some cases, it can be 0. #parkingreform

No congestion pricing=lost money for subway maintenance & growth💸💸💸Decisions have consequences #transportation Smart Cities Dive smartcitiesdive.com/news/nyc-trans…

Tony, congrats! Well deserved for all your great work. Momentum is clearly building. Let's make 2025 even greater!
