As it turns out, a considerable number of informed voters understand that if we actually want less traffic, we need to design streets that favor more efficient modes of transportation.

In Milwaukee, police will now be able to impound any vehicle driven recklessly.
City Alderman: “It’s a two-ton weapon. We should look at this the same way we look at firearms. Let’s get as many of them off the street as possible.”

What will be the first "Bike Boulevard" street we convert in Boston and why should it be Dot Ave?
Astoria's 31st Avenue #openstreet is magic-a-licious. Now re-designed by NYC DOT as a bike boulevard permanently but still on weekends hosts neighbors, games, community, commerce & people lounging in the sun!

Well that’s pretty cool
Boston’s MBTA plans to eliminate the only section of its rail service that’s currently shared with cars, the southern section of the E Line. The agency will build a dedicated, center-running transitway on Huntington Ave that’s also usable for the buses along the route.

Buses would also use the proposed new Green Line E branch transitway to bypass traffic between Heath Street and Brigham Circle.

We actually aren't constrained into atrocious premises by thought exercises. Obstacles are a reason to fight, not an excuse to quit. Our friends and neighbors aren't distractions..
