Dear local governments of the world. Be kind to your citizens. Give them something to lean on.

By the way: People in small towns and villages are also happy about human-centred infrastructure.

New overnight train cars coming to a long-haul #Amtrak route near you. Less obvious to note is how much many rural communities depend on these routes - so even Republican electeds see/know the value of the routes.

Great book. So far only published in German and because of its practical relevance also closely related to German laws and conditions. Nevertheless, a valuable source of inspiration also for all those who are involved in #Municipal #transport planning in other countries - or who would like to have a say, help shape or report and comment, as I do. #urbanplanning #RuralPlanning #bike #verkehrswende #mobility #books #BookToot #buch

Interested in most things, except synchronised swimming because #Buffy jokes are never getting old. But especially #ClimateScience, #UrbanDevelopment and related #gubbins

Oh, and #WestHam because glory hunting is for wimps.

Hopelessly inept typsit.
