Maybe if we call it a “freeway” the second busiest rail corridor in the nation could get repaired? Worked pretty good for the I-10 — how long did that take again? A week? What you think, @GavinNewsom @PeteButtigieg ?


CA reg. 9ECU444. Stops at a red, then decides to drive through it as soon as they see me trying to ride through on my green. WTF?

Total failure that decades after Berkeley pioneered the bicycle boulevard concept, our kids are still crossing unsignalized arterials like this on their way to school. The City needs to start funding these upgrades NOW.

An additional 64.5 miles of traffic calmed neighborhood bike routes were also recommended in Oakland's 2019 bike plan update. Of that only 2 miles of streets (Plymouth and Shafter) meet the city's current, minimum design standard, or 3.1% of the total.

Oakland's award-winning bike plan adopted in 2019 includes a recommended 51 miles of protected bikeway citywide. Nearly 5 years later, of that 51 miles only 2.3 miles has been completed, or 4.5% of the network.

SFPD has lost the plot. Of all the craziness that happens over there, this is what they pull out all the riot gear for?

Hey, @rideact - I think there may be a problem with your bus 1351 (license plate 1177758). It put out a huge cloud of blue/brown smoke when climbing Dwight Way yesterday evening, at around 17:53.


This is a brilliant experiment, and the paper is thorough, too!

Steel plates sticking up over 1", and poor trench backfill with over 1" drop at the margins. This is on a signed bike route, and poses a serious hazard to users of that route. Is this your work, @MillerPipeline? Do better, before you get sued to cover someone's medical expenses.
