Amazing how concrete can prevent a delivery truck from parking in the bike lane in a way that paint cannot
WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. Politician claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Great, @citynewsTO toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/10/…
If the typical journalist covered crime the way they cover traffic crashes, it would look like this:

It's strange to me that most people don't see how crazy it is to have cars dominating towns and cities. In much of #Canterbury no room for parents and children to pass on the pavement while cars thunder by.
“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in #Copenhagen?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure… bicycling.” — @mortenkabell
Cargo-bikes for the voluntary firefighters. They might be on the scene much more quickly than the big fire engine and are much more flexible when there is no need for a massive intervention.
This is still one of my favourite videos ever, perfectly explaining how much public money goes to NOT solve congestion. “It means you spend a lot of money now for a very short-term benefit." Via Australia’s great show “Utopia” on @ABCTV Please share!
Por primera vez, vamos a incluir la bicicleta en las ayudas al transporte público. Vamos a destinar 40 millones de euros para impulsar el uso de la bicicleta eléctrica como medio de transporte cotidiano. La bici no es un símbolo progre, es lo que es: una alternativa fantástica…
We've been saying this for years. If you are genuinely an essential car user, getting the others on to buses is good news for you.
Schrödinger's road space. Or: How taking away road space for cars is actually good news for those who need to drive. (by @urbanthoughts11)
🚳 Polèmica per l’eliminació d’un carril bici a Castelldefels. La reforma suposa retornar el doble sentit als cotxes d’una avinguda principal. 🎙️ Cristina Rovira @salvemavpineda | @pedrote1212 @AjCastelldefels @HMarin8 @RTVECatalunya
𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲 [𝑛𝑜𝑢𝑛]: the alarming growth of private cars in height, width, length and weight at the expense of public space, the environment and overall safety.

Once upon a time, leaving your house to find bikes scattered around was an ominous sign you were in the start of an apocalypse. Now it’s just Lime Bike’s business model.
Interesting that engineers think there's a high enough chance of driving into a ditch that guardrail is installed. But engineering measures to slow down drivers are resisted. I'm not saying all sidewalks need guardrail, just that status quo engineering priorities are curious.

10 million to increase air pollution around this school!
This is a $10 million plan to expand an elementary school’s capacity. For cars.
Si els cotxes i les bicis han d'aparcar en espais habilitats sinó se'ls multa, perquè les motos poden fer-lo on els dona la gana? @bcn_ajuntament @BCN_Mobilitat
