Every significant new plan for a city isn’t just an opportunity for policy change.

It’s an opportunity, and a responsibility, for culture change.

That’s how I do the plans I work on. That’s my definition of success.

New conversation. New plan. New culture.

More than half of Toronto drivers in a Universtiy of Toronto study didn't look for people walking or on bikes before turning right. Study used eye-tracking tech.

Increasingly deadly vehicles, dumb laws, and irresponsible driving equal people being injured and killed.

The people who don’t want to bike, walk and take transit tell me it’s unsafe, it’s too far or it’s too slow, not that they love their car (mostly)

DDOT continues to publish before/after analyses of safety projects. The numbers for the 9th street NW bike lanes suggest that we should be doing these projects everywhere we can. Crashes plummeted, pedestrian and bike traffic skyrocketed, and vehicle travel times dropped.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

New fare gates, tap to pay, and a hopefully better app experience? Seems like a huge step or two in the right direction!

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.
