    Helsinki Kruunuvuori Bridge opens to pedestrians and cyclists

    "Kruunuvuori bridge an exceptional project by international standards. Bridges of this scale are rarely built exclusively for public transport, pedestrians and cyclists."

    "From the outset, the focus was on pedestrian and cyclist safety, a comfortable travel experience, and barrier-free accessibility...Opening the bridge to light traffic marks an important milestone, providing a safe and distinctive route across the surrounding urban landscape." >>

  6. It is not a fuel crisis,
    it is a fossil fuel crisis!

    Oh dear, We forgot to transition our mobility system
    Go e-anything now without the matching active mobility infrastructure.

    This fuel crisis could last for a while. It’s time for a new approach to fuel use – end it. >>

  7. Pleased to share our new publication in the 𝘑𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘺𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘪𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩.
    The paper introduces a multilayered framework that integrates PLOS/BLOS models with the 15-minute city concept. Developed within the CITWIN research project, it supports more holistic and scalable assessments for #walkable and #bikeable cities.

    💬 Looking forward to feedback, collaborations, and discussions!

  9. I'll say it again.
    They're dead.
    #Philippine #news editors are dead.
    Extinct. 😐

    #Philippines #journalism 👎

    What the heck do they mean #EDSA #BikeLanes are "a few meters wide"?! It's not even 1 meter wide! 🤷‍♀️

    "... saddened by the MMDA's idea of zeroing in on bike lanes which only take up a few meters wide ..."

  10. @my_actual_brain
    You can think of it that way:
    if it were safer,
    more people would ride #bikes.

    Or you could say,
    we need more more mooooore people on bikes!
    So much more that they can't take us for granted anymore.
    And then things will finally change for the better.
    More than just band-aid solutions.

    Hope that things get better. 🙏
    Or accept it and live with it. 🤷‍♀️
    Change will happen anyway.
    Gotta have faith. 😉

  11. #Photos from Sunday's #bicycle event calling for a stop to the removal of the #ProtectedBikeLanes on Ayala Ave #MakatiCity #Philippines.

    We might say the event was a success, considering that they planned it only Friday. Little time to spread the word.

    The turnout was a disappointment for me. I imagined we could at least fill a block of Ayala Ave. I had hoped a lot of people would show up. But, no. My estimate was that there were only about 200.

    Oh well. We tried.

  12. Screenshots from today's hands-on #WeMap session with the #Mandaue CPDO team: #OpenStreetMap editing with #Mapillary street-level imagery.

    The team is in a journey of discovery, learning about the potentials of #OpenData, as they help add the city's bike lanes, and work with the #biking, #activeMobility and #opendata
    community to help map the local data gaps in OSM

    We even managed a group-fie with some participants. 😆

  14. After last week's #wemap webinar, the #OpenStreetMap contributors in #Mandaue in the #Cebu region are now collecting #Mapillary street-level imagery, with the goal of documenting and working on to improve the open map data for biking infrastructure in the city.

    With fresh imagery, they are taking advantage of computer vision to detect objects: traffic signs, bike racks, speed limits, etc.
