Uncut infrastructure

On this channel, I try to capture archival-grade footage of bike, ped and public transit infrastructure around the world (not just Madison, Wisconsin). I use captions to highlight thing that I've noticed in person that may not be as obvious through video. All the videos on this channel can be downloaded for use with your own projects (subject to the license used on the video). 💬 Turn on captions for commentary

Title: Public Works Transportation Projects Review and Feedback - John Nolen Drive

Wow - this update in Madison's #VisionZero newsletter shortly after my video on near-side bicycle signals! 🚲🚦
