Hearing comments like this at the CPC parking hearing
"Debating whether to leave your house during the evening to go get dinner for fear of not finding parking when you return", makes me so sad that we have built such a car centric city that someone's life hinges around finding parking.

This is elitist mentality that somehow bicycle users, people who "walk", or public tranist users etc are only entitled to a routes & space proportional to their numbers, but users of cars are granted unlimited space for roads, & parking lots.

The needs of non car users are equal to car users!

"I support safe infrastructure for cyclists, but the number of bike lanes installed seems disproportionate to actual usage."

No you don't, let's be honest!

Is Kansas City prioritizing bike lanes over efficient vehicle travel? | Opinion
On several major streets, new bike lanes resulting in a single lane for traffic apparently have created more congestion. From our readers:

We all know Kansas City BBQ is the best, but you can slow down and park before placing your order! Guess this driver couldn't wait to get some LC's BBQ!

Join us for a rally supporting survivors and victims of road traffic violence and their loved ones! At City Hall hear from community leaders and our neighbors, and call on our local government to commit to safer streets and an end to traffic violence in our region.

There is a god damn party bus just idling outside my apartment building for the last hour waiting for the partiers to return from the bar down the street. I appreciate that ppl planned ahead and aren't drinking and driving, but do we really need to leave this bus just spewing pollution???

Watching cities across the world start managing and eliminating parking spaces provides new ways people can reimagine their cities.

This thread is a perfect illustration of why e-bikes are an absolutely mobility gamechanger for so many people.

(NB: We need to forever bury the idea that e-bikes are "cheating")
I was approached by a lady outside the gym today while parking my bike. She was likely in her 70s. She had such great questions about the bike and then proceeded to tell me about her ebike.

She told me that she rode over 600 miles on it last year and was so proud of herself. She was so happy.

Ty explains why Kansas City is a hidden gem and a real cycling mecca.

While I agree with all he says, I would add, we have a great bike share & an expanding network of protected and non-protected bike lanes for commuting!

Grassroots activist and local bus riders installing benches because RideKC Transit keep removing them at the request of the KCPD while rides have no where to sit when they wait for their hourly bus.

The fast majority of our buses run only once an hour leaving long gaps in service.

I fear the World Cup will be to KC what the Olympics were to Athens, a massive economic drain and a wealth transfer to the global rich.

Will footing the bill for the global rich to come party be worth the cost? Only time with tell!

I was radicalized at 13 when I wrote my Grade 8 speech on light pollution and learned for the first time that a better world was possible
Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

John Forester was a gate keeping ableist, elitist of the worst kind. Fuck him & his sexist, ableist, & gate keeping thoughts

All bikes are good bikes, all bike rides are good bike rides. You don't need special bikes or clothing to ride, you just need a bike!

Sure, eliminate state income tax, that would put an extra $3K in my pocket. Wow, a whole whopping $3K, I'm rich!!!!!!

Oh but wait. will my roads be drivable, will my kids get fed at school, will my hospital stay open, or will I have to pay more out of pocket for all of this?

Taxes are investments!
