During last night's City Council budget meeting, tens of thousands of Denverites were not represented by their Council members because there were no breaks during the 4 hour meeting, and key votes were missed because council members had to step outside for breaks due to there being no recesses. #SafeRoutestoSchool programmatic funding and the north broadway bike lane in #Denver were affected by this choice.

But they’ve done something equally important. They’ve protected the kids who already walk and bike — and made it easier for more families to consider those options” #Cville #BikeTooter #parenting #SafeRoutesToSchool #education #StrongTowns #walkable #SafeStreets #WarOnCars
One Problem, Two Responses: What Philly and Charlottesville Reveal About School Transportation | Strong Towns

Every fall brings the same story: too few school bus drivers, too many kids left waiting. Some districts throw money at the problem. Others see an opening to make walking and biking safer.

Wish we lived close enough to our favorite 8-yr-old to add our fresh strawberries to her lunch on first day of Sayward Elementary School today.

Best wishes to all children starting a new school year, in British Columbia, here in California, and elsewhere.

And here’s to #SafeRoutesToSchool for all!
