"#BikeBus advocates waltzed in accompanied by a loud boombox, there were pothole donuts, city staff dressed up in uniforms including a traffic cone, people were making buttons and there were more high-fives than handshakes β€” it was a vibe I haven’t felt inside City Hall for at least a decade." #Portland #VisionZero #pdxBikes

#OregonWalks Zach at 47min: "here is a chance', right now, to Walk the Walk, we can put full #transit lanes [#BusLanes] all up and down 82nd Ave"
Thank you Mitch Green for acknowledging that we're not going to splurge on #VisionZero spending right now, but are going to rethink what we're already spending, how we manage our #transportation assets, and how we pay for it. Sounds like something a smart socialist economist would say.
Councilor Morillo amendments to #DefundPolice and fund #transportation safety programs. 🎯 ICYMI my firsthand experience with high-speed chases confirms my #ACAB
No way, you can raise transportation revenue and send a price signal at the same time with taxes on corporate-owned ride-hailing startups!? That would almost win @TheWarOnCars
