Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 04-13-26

There were no Pook-Emu Bee links on Saturday because it was newsletter day (22 links in issue 275!). There were no Pook-Emu Bee links on Sunday because I failed. But today is Monday. Monday is a fun day. I will not fail. In fact, I may even have some bonus links (either to make up for yesterday or to keep my link list under control). 1. 420 Court's Façade Takes Shape in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn (Michael Young and Matt Pruznick for New York YIMBY.

“even in some of the world’s more established #cycling cities—seasonal debris is one of the most persistent barriers to safe riding
“a decentralized, community-led approach to #infrastructure maintenance—something rarely seen in #transportation planning”
“these efforts point to a shift in thinking: #bikelanes aren’t just #infrastructure that gets built—they’re #infrastructure that needs to be actively maintained, just like any other part of the #transportation system” https://momentummag.com/bike-lane-sweeper-richmond-virginia/

oh and i can confirm that work has restarted on the 61st Ave NE improvements in Kenmore - including the new bike lanes - but it's not, like, super-accelerated or anything. But they've put down a bunch of yellow trace paint, and were working on some section of sidewalk I didn't understand when I went to check it out today. Kenmore's website still says "through spring" so we don't have a solid completion date yet.

We took a ride along the new Tolmie Avenue protected bike lane in Victoria, BC with cherry blossoms in bloom.

This links the Galloping Goose Regional Trail with the Graham-Jackson bicycle boulevard and connects residential streets with a commercial area. #yyjbike #biketooter #victoriabc #bikelanes

When Paint Isn’t Protection
"The incident also highlights a core issue in #transportation planning: the limits of painted #bikelanes.
The #cyclists involved were riding in a designated #bikelane – exactly where they are supposed to be. But as the video makes clear, a painted line offers little defense against a driver willing to ignore it.
Advocates have long argued that preventing this kind of incident requires more than paint” https://cal.streetsblog.org/2026/03/31/viral-newport-beach-road-rage-incident-leads-to-arrest-highlights-limits-of-painted-bike-lanes
