Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.” It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there. Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more. This is new. This is leadership. Cities are a result of choices. HT Fouad Khayat

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…

Inclusionary zoning is increasingly seen as best practice among practitioners, despite there being absolutely evidence that it broadly helps with affordability, or even integration. (And mounting evidence that it hurts!)

Another 60km of quality separated bike lanes for $30M -- which is just about *half* the cost of the Six Forks Rd widening alone. We can do better, City of Raleigh! @OaksAndSpokes

Losing Cabarrus, Hargett and Jones on the west side, adding W Street cuts southwest Raleigh from the grid. W street has vast potential for community and business growth if left as part of the grid. Current plans create a 3 block dead zone between DT and new development

Do not recommend using professional jargon to describe your love life. But if we did, what's the GIS version of this 🥔🗺️ ᴘᴏᴋᴀᴛᴇᴏ ᴍᴀᴘs? Validated my metadata? Successful spatial join? Merge geometry?

I'd love to see Wake County Public School System actively promote more biking and walking to school. There are some programs to do so, but individual schools actively discourage it and unintentionally make it the least convenient option. momentummag.com/why-riding-a-b…

I wonder if you could pay for smaller vehicles with just the saved maintenance on the big trucks from not driving them to all the medical calls.

More of this TxDOT. 🙌 Driver behavior is the primary threat to pedestrians. Americans don't need walking PSAs, they need driving PSAs.

Raleigh Christmas Parade -cars are back! Nothing sings Christmas like diesel fumes and loud motors. Glad we got that sorted 😡
