Two disappointing ⁦City of Richmond, VA⁩ photos of the day: 1) a nicely repaved street but without installation of protected bike lanes; and 2) fencing that closes off the public Tredegar amphitheater area & tree damage from fence posts into roots + bolts into the trees.

True leadership requires more than just a recognition of the importance of transportation. It requires setting a vision, dedicating resources, laying the groundwork for success, and committing political capital, so that when the work gets tough, projects still get done.

What happens when the ⁦City of Richmond, VA⁩ ⁦Richmond VA DPW⁩ don’t require developers (and in this case VCU) to provide a safe, temporary, protected sidewalk during building construction.

What is 'tactical urbanism'? The city hopes it's an answer for a crash-prone intersection. richmonder.org/what-is-tactic…

“LQC models allows the city time to address urgent issues with low-cost, temporary interventions prior to securing funding for permanent installations. - Kevin Vonck, Planning Director of city stuff and new spokesperson of RVADOTRA!

Couldn’t be the lack of sidewalks, crosswalks, ped signals, lighting or other safe routes to residential, commercial or transportation…. Good thing VDOT Richmond and Henrico County Government made a plan in 2018 to fix this in 2030 while they blow 100s of millions on #onemorelane #carbrain

🚨#TacticalUrbanism ALERT🚨 We demanded safer streets/faster changes, and Richmond VA DPW delivered. No #Levarwalks here. We’re undoing #DangerousByDesign streets. Now’s our turn to pitch in and bring the PAINt this weekend, before there’s another #TrafficViolence memorial.

In January, Richmond Police Chief Rick Edwards said his department issued a total of 26,739 citations based on footage from 11 active locations in 2024 (now 13, as of April 2025), calling it “an incredible number.” richmondmagazine.com/news/news/spee…

Let’s Go Richmond VA DPW! Narrow those overbuilt #strodes.

More of this please! Just a few years ago, at an Richmond VA DPW speed symposium, a different ladder analogy was given that ruffled a few DOTRA feathers. Glad to see the shift in tone.

A decade after the 💩show that was the Floyd Ave Bike Blvd community meeting, DPW is finally narrowing and daylighting corners w/o interference. You’ll never catch Stephanie Lynch. Katherine Jordan, Gumby Dot Gov (Council Member Breton) or Andreas D. Addison fwiw, defending illegal parking. rva.gov/press-releases…
