@ianrbuck and I talked to the folks at #mndot #metrotransit & #transitapp about the state of #Minnesota getting Royale, the premium version of the app. We also talk #gtfs and how the app works!

It was quite the task for organize guests across different timezones, so please let us know if you have questions you want answered!

Everyone in the Twin Cities has access to premium features in the Transit app thanks to a partnership with Metro Transit and MnDOT. What questions do you have for them?? The #StreetsMNPodcast will be interviewing reps from all three of them next week! cc @[email protected]
Theres something peaceful and settling about all-day snowstorms. When leaving is futile, the plan for the day is to curl up at home and watch it all pile up.
Thanks to #MNDot #HennepinCounty #MapleGroveMN and all the folks that will plow and make the region operational again!
The Our Streets crew really packed the room at the MnDOT meeting today. About a hundred people in total, with fifty arriving by bike. Bike parking overflowed, so nearby fences were commandeered for the cause. We had a brief rally outside the building before going inside.
I was one of the first people into the room. One of the MnDOT folks asked me how many people we had - their eyes bulged a bit when I said about a hundred.
MnDOT was very polite and I felt like they heard the words I was speaking, even if they didn't seem to be listening. Our ask is a simple one - don't eliminate the at-grade options for I-94 at this point in the project; advance those options to conduct a more comprehensive study.
With a hundred of us and so few of them, we really just took over the room. I spent more time chatting with other attendees about urbanism. Met a student studying urban design. Met someone else working on designing rail networks in Minnesota. Biked back to Minneapolis with a software engineer I met.
I'll end by paraphrasing one of the best lines from the rally:
People ask where the cars will go. But did MnDOT ask where people would go before it paved over their homes? No! Did MnDOT ask where kids would play? No! Did MnDOT ask where the elderly would walk without endangering their health? No!

#Minnesota GO #Transportation Vision Update
Minnesota GO is a long-range vision that guides how we plan for all the ways people and goods move around our state. The Minnesota Department of Transportation ( #MnDOT ) leads this effort, and the vision is for all people and anyone with a role in implementing transportation. This vision was first created in 2011 and looks ahead 50 years to help transportation serve everyone for generations...
