  1. Good timing for NACTO (an association of North American #cities and #transit agencies formed to exchange #transportation ideas, insights, and practices and cooperatively approach national transportation issues) to have its 2026 Designing Cities conference in #Minneapolis, May 12-15. events.bizzabo.com/designingci

    As Thomas L. Friedman suggested in March 15 column “Why Minnesota Matters More Than Iran for America’s Future”:
    "For anyone outside of #Minnesota who wants to help, the best thing you can do is #vacation in the #TwinCities or hold your next #convention here.”

  6. Ariana Green, Principal Transportation Planner, and Alissa Guther,
    Transportation Planner, of Transportation Agency for #MontereyCounty, attended the 2025 National Association of City Transportation Officials
    (#NACTO) Designing Cities Conference in Washington, D.C. The conference provided an
    opportunity to connect with fellow #ActiveTransportation, #PublicHealth, and #SafeRoutes
    champions from across the country and share best practices. Sessions attended
    and key takeaways: (see pages 46-48 tamcmonterey.org/files/ba21450).

  7. We miss Bike Portland and others on the bird site—but not enough to make us return to that platform.

    ICYMI, it was thanks to #BikePortland that we are aware of the following #ProtectedBikeLane design guide from City of Portland, Oregon: portland.gov/transportation/en

    When Jonathan Maus / Bike Portland wrote about that guide 10/15/21 (bikeportland.org/2021/10/15/le) he said: "According to League of American Bicyclists / #BikeLeague Policy Director Ken McLeod, guides like this one are ‘rare.’ He says none of the other top cycling cities in America like Madison, Boulder, or Davis have such detailed operating instructions for protected bike lanes. Their plans usually just reference national guidebooks like #NACTO’s Urban Bikeway Design Guide."

  8. Great talk with #cville transportation planner Ben Chambers today. I learned that our team presented at #nacto on our important #saferoutestoschool progress here. We aren’t Paris yet, but we are moving forward. charlottesville.gov/565/Safe-R

  9. Stefanie Seskin served as #Boston's Director of Active Transportation for 8 years before leaving to join #NACTO this fall. In this interview, she talks about her new role, and reflects on how much #Boston's streets have changed in the past 8 years:

  15. New report from #NACTO shows how "Shared #micromobility has proven itself to have ... value as a resilient and essential part of our transportation systems."

    Currently, most US systems try to cover whole cities with 1,000 or fewer bikes. Empty bike racks often end up frustrating people who cannot complete trips.

    Soon, city leaders will wake up to #bikeshare as a low-cost, effective way to address climate and equity, and the bikeshare systems of many cities will grow.
