I’ve lost track of how many times this has happened at this intersection. @LouPubWorks why won’t you do something about the dangerous streets in Old Louisville? Do we have to wait until there’s multiple deaths?

Towns built compactly are not only more alive and easier to get around, but also have views from the center of town out into the surrounding countryside, an experience exceptionally rare in American sprawl that rolls on seemingly forever. But we could build this way.

A quick look at the south Meridian St. connectivity upgrades. A road diet with curb bump outs allows a wide multi-modal path, landscaping, and expanded sidewalks. The Old Southside is a neighborhood to watch.

No discussion of multi-modal transport is serious without these two at the top. And walking, biking, and their cousins are the only modes that come with built-in fitness. Encourage these, and many good things follow.

HUGE news. Another expansion of the @INCulturalTrail announced, connecting downtown with the westside. Super proud of my coworkers who helped bring the Henry St. bridge design to fruition.

Electric vehicles are a great way to feel like you're solving a problem while avoiding the discomfort of tackling the underlying problem: land use.

To ensure cars didn’t take back control of Paris streets as the pandemic was “ending,” (like they have in so many cities), Mayor @Anne_Hidalgo made sure that 60k parking spaces and many streets were permanently transformed to seating for restaurants, people places and bike-lanes.

It’s amazing what we can do when we rethink how we use some of the space we devote to moving and storing cars.
