HLA remains unimplemented

CT State Senator Jeff Gordon in 2024: “We’ve heard a lot that zoning stands in the way,and I guess if you say something long enough, you can hope that it becomes the truth. But the reality is that’s not the truth at all.”

Preserving my sanity by reinterpreting the anti congestion pricing discourse to be "transit in NYC should be better" which is a great point! I will be ignoring all other interpretations.

Anyone aware of any creative fixes to utility poles in sidewalks other than pedestrian bump outs?

Currently freezing to death at the Pratt Street Winter Market in Hartford if anyone wants to come complain to me at the transportation safety booth.

Just ran an engagement event for a safety action plan feat. +10 teenage boys. If anyone else attempts this I would keep in mind that they are probably hesitant to admit to feeling unsafe (not one), just ask them directly if they've even been hit/almost hit by a car (every single one).

Logging into this website for real this time, be prepared for my hot transportation takes (eg: I should be allowed to challenge you to a duel if you close pass me biking).
