Analytical measures for cities assessing transportation need to improve. Traffic engineering community needs more research & refinement of methods to adequately assess the comfort of users & perceptions of safety that would help us address public health goals #VisionZero @thewaroncars.bsky.social

“We will never be Amsterdam” is an argument against bike infrastructure… but in a climate change future, you’re going to hope your City is more like Amsterdam when the water is approaching

Build it and they will change? After installing the Prospect Park West protected bike lane sidewalk riding dropped to 3 percent… “If your policy changes infrastructure, it will change culture” @jonorcutt.bsky.social in Life After Cars @thewaroncars.bsky.social

Moving bicycle traffic “off the road” is a key step for creating an all ages and abilities that make people safer & more comfortable
