Find your birthday tree🌳🎁! Enter your birthday to discover San Francisco street trees that were planted (many by Friends of the Urban Forest) on the day you were born. Thanks for creating this @braitsch.bsky.social!

Happy Earth Day! I recently learned that San Francisco has approximately 125,000 street trees, so I made a fun project where you can enter your birthday to discover street trees that were planted on the day you were born! 🎄🌴🌳🥳

What a lovely day to premiere the culmination of over 5 years of tireless work by our extraordinary community @oceanbeachpark.org

I'm so thankful for what each and every one of you have done to bring us to this historic day.

My latest newsletter digs deeper into the San Francisco Fire Department's emergency response times to Slow Streets to understand why it took them 31 minutes to travel five blocks.

they know what they did

If you want to bring your 4 wheeled air conditioned living room into our city's flagship park you absolutely should have to goddamn pay to do so.

🚨 New Data Analysis: San Francisco's Slow Streets have reduced vehicle crashes by 61% over the past 2 years compared to a 5% increase citywide AND they've had a trivial impact on emergency response times, despite the fire department vehemently opposing them.

Anyone else struggling to focus & stay motivated with this weather and endless barrage of bad news?

I have several projects that are like 80-90% completed and can't seem to get them done.

How are y'all battling fatigue, despair and the feeling that nothing you're working on even matters anymore?

After 4 years & connecting 320 people in need with free bikes, Bike Match Network is shutting down.

Plus a deep dive into why Telraam's traffic monitoring sensors haven't been effective at calming our streets in the Bay Area.

New substack just dropped 🔥

Hi bluesky. I haven't been on here in awhile, nice meet you new followers. I produce maps & data analyses that help people fight for safer, healthier & more equitable cities.

I'd love to see what you're working on.

Here's our latest project we just launched today sf.streetsblog.org/2024/12/02/n...

New data analysis & op-ed:

Turning the Great Highway into a park will bring millions to local businesses AND will likely reduce vehicle crashes and emergency response times throughout the Sunset District.

Support our local businesses by voting #yesonk!

I made a live crash tracker to support congestion pricing in NYC! Will any of my 19 followers see it here? Who knows!
