Buffalo Pothole Bandit makes mysterious stops on New Orleans streets

Definitely brings up some accessibility issues (not that potholes are accessible, either). That's the problem with this stuff. While gov't sometimes takes it too far, there usually are good public-minded reasons there's a process...

If you ever get discouraged with local municipalities not building safe, pedestrian-oriented, living streets in your neighbourhood, please remember that residents tearing up pavement late at night to make it so cars have to drive slower is an option.

And was necessary.

“It's a friendly wave to anybody passing by that's from the neighborhood…But if ICE arrives, it forces them to slow down. We can log their heading, we can log their plates and we can alert the neighborhood.”https://www.mprnews.org/story/2026/02/05/minneapolis-neighbors-using-blockades-as-popup-parties-that-slow-down-ice re: #Minneapolis #tacticalurbanism + more

#tacticalUrbanism popup #roundabouts -- when people come together in public space outside of their cars, we see the same patterns over and over. Why is this completely unlike the #SafeStreets projects proposed by #trafficEngineers? (& shelved pending $30m+ budgets 💸) It's not blinkinlights on 5-lane #stroads, it's impediments to platoons of SUVs rolling through at speed (which is exactly what the "traffic model" thinking tries to preserve at all costs.) #acab #AbolishICE #VisionZero #BanCars

Tactical urbanism is a community-led approach using temporary interventions to enhance urban spaces, fostering civic engagement, testing ideas quickly, and inspiring sustainable city improvements.

Incredible. I love the idea of taking checkpoints and the "papers please" mentality, and turning it around on the nazis.

#FuckICE #Minnesota (and yes, this is very much also #TacticalUrbanism roundabout created for the purpose of this checkpoint; for the #Urbanist nerds out there.)

The activist group Safe Street Rebel used traffic cones to immobilize autonomous cars in SF. This piece frames the protest as “playful resistance,” a form of tactical urbanism that challenges the corporate takeover of public space.

London vs Paris cycleways, in a day! Is it a fair comparison without somebody from Paris doing it on mayor Hidalgo's birthday or something? #transit #urbanism #LegalizeBikes #BikeTooter #jfdi #ProtectedBikeLanes #tacticalUrbanism #TheWarOnCars #climateAction
