I of course agree with my colleagues Danny Yoder and Ben Chambers that state funding should support multimodal regional safety priorities and not picayune highway onramp and off-ramp tweaks but agreed that the new Smart Scale prioritization fails to do this. Instead of embracing failure to snag tax dollars for bad projects we should work together to fix what is broken. #VDOT #SmartScale #cville #BikeTooter #walkable #BudgetsAreValuesDocuments https://open.substack.com/pub/communityengagement/p/april-21-2026-charlottesville-reps

• #VDOT ( Virginia Department of Transportation )
• #NTTA ( North Texas Tollway Authority )

I suppose #VDOT does own the roads but, well, this is a parking lot.

#Virginia traffic fatalities remain elevated and hit 902 (to date) for 2024, only 5 fewer than 2023.

#VDOT appears to have absolutely no plan for making its roads safer for all.

I served on many of the committees of these vital transportation safety projects in #cville that are being cancelled, delayed, or reduced in scope and I am sorry to see that happen, but I appreciate the hard work that City Manager Sanders is doing to fix our broken processes and get actual projects actually done. #safestreets #projectmanagement #processimprovement #inflation #vdot #timekillsdeals https://open.substack.com/pub/communityengagement/p/november-13-2024-charlottesvilles

I'm happy to stumble on this #vdot report on pedestrian safety from a few years ago. I haven't read the whole thing, but a quick review makes it look reasonable, grounded in data, and based on the real world. I don't know a lot about how we are thinking about safety at the state level in #virginia , but this gives me some hope https://www.vdot.virginia.gov/media/vdotvirginiagov/doing-business/technical-guidance-and-support/transportation-and-mobility/bicycle-and-pedestrian/treatments/VDOT_PSAP_Report_052118_with_Appendix_A_B_C.pdf #walkable #safestreets

I heard some troubling things last night at the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission board meeting about possible changes to Virginia's SMART SCALE transportation funding system, cutting the annual application limit in half and potentially reducing funding for bicycle and pedestrian safety. I am working to understand what is happening and what can be done. https://www.virginiamercury.com/2023/03/23/virginia-to-conduct-in-depth-review-of-smart-scale-process/ #safestreets #climate #equity #virginia #urbanism #biketooter #vdot #cville
