“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death

We are extremely disappointed that the Illinois General Assembly adjourned without passing pro-housing legislation to allow ADUs and missing middle housing statewide. Our housing crisis will continue to worsen due to a lack of urgency from our elected officials.
