"The department [Department of #Transportation / #DOT] recently sent letters to local governments in at least six states — Alabama, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts and New Mexico — informing them it was withdrawing money awarded under the $1.1 trillion #infrastructure law former President [POTUS 46] signed in 2021.”

We were personally especially sorry to read about #Illinois #Route66 withdrawal, in general vicinity of our birthplace, and where we have many relatives and friends. "McLean County in central Illinois got a similar letter recalling federal funding awarded last year to help design a final 9-mile segment of a #bike and #pedestrian trail along Route 66. County engineer Jerry Stokes said the project wouldn’t affect #MotorVehicle travel but would promote safety by getting #bicyclists and #pedestrians off the road.”

Shared some info about the #TransCanadaTrail (which is huger than it was!) and almost immediately got the question "What is a 'water trail'?"

I do not know. Apparently there are water trails as part the trail network. What are they?

On my way down the oliverbahn this afternoon I fell in with a large group of #bicyclists and only learned after it was the legendary #fancywomenbikeride. Apparently if you live here and travel reasonably (ie, on a bike) you can't help but participate in the #yegbike community!

Have any #Massachusetts #bicyclists figured out how to file for commuter benefits on their MA tax return?

Does it just go in with EZPass and Tolls? The official tax-filing software for the Commonwealth doesn't seem to have a space for it.

Loud vehicles cause harm to #children, #pedestrians and #bicyclists on a daily basis, yet #TinaKotek and her administration look the other way out of fear of Harley owners, who can "customize" without regard to those exposed. Nevermind the #tunercars and #4x4s.

There are vehicles, with no #DEQ inspection, yet they abuse those condemned to use public roads with egregious, otherwise illegal in a *workplace*, noise levels.

#Noise level laws flaunted via exception:

It's an 'in-use' vehicle.
