We work to make biking, walking, & rolling easy & comfortable for everyone.
Transportation is intersectional. It affects how we move, where we live, the climate, our health, and our safety. Support our work and help us improve the way we move, and in turn, improve the way we live.

Celeste Robinson, Minneapolis Ward 2 council office, urging "serious public health conversation" about the racially disparate impacts, getting beyond "air quality" as an abstraction. This is about life expectancy, brain development, heart attacks, strokes, that "parts per million" doesn't capture.
