Madison!

Thanks for covering all this… such drama! Re: the parking pilot - this vote means it will NOT be included in the budget and implemented? That is a shame.

Just stumbling upon this, but wow! What an incredible resource. This would be huge to expand to other cities.

This is not to say that a bike path will always outweigh street trees. Of course, each situation is different. But we need to be smart about identifying limitations and evaluating real costs and benefits that are based on data, not emotion or misinformed reporting of science.

This bothers me as two people, who ultimately want to have a similar impact in increasing our urban sustainability, end up pitted against each other. We need to find a way to have more collaborative conversations about the actual benefits of different assets (trees or bikes).
