  3. Just to confirm what some others have spotted, FHWA's Proven Safety Countermeasures site has deleted five actions related to reducing speed and bike safety.

    Speed Safety Cameras
    Variable Speed Limits
    Appropriate Speed Limits for All Road Users
    Bicycle Lanes
    Road Diets

    The crazy thing is that there are still fact sheets for each of these hosted at FHWA! My guess is that they are being lazy with their deep scrub of the evil woke safety measures. Download these while you gan, I suppose.

  4. Car Spreading

    SUVs - the curse. Tax them out of urban areas.

    Oliver Lord, strategy director of Clean Cities, points out that: “The UK is a tax haven for these vehicles.” Research by the Transport and Environment Network shows that “buyers here pay up to 20 times less for the biggest models than in other European countries.” In France, tax of £66,000 is levied on a BMW X5 compared with just £3,200 in the UK.

  6. If you need a traffic light 🚦 – if people need to endure a bureaucrat beating them up with a stick to cross a street – you've made a mistake somewhere.

    Many are made wrong – to prioritise cars – but the people who oppose the fundamental concept of a #pedestrian #bridge or #underpass, are the most anti-pedestrian people ever. They are the #motorist bureaucrats beating you up in every intersection. 🥊

  10. The pedestrian plaza at Bute and Robson on Saturday. The reworking of Robson to the east for a block really has made the area much more human friendly.
