The initial phase of implementing Alameda’s first Neighborhood Greenway on Pacific Avenue is now a reality, with new four-way stop signs on Willow and Walnut streets at their intersections with Pacific Avenue. Here's when we can expect the the Slow Streets barricades to be removed. https://alamedapost.com/news/new-stop-signs-pacific-ave-launch-neighborhood-greenway/

Neighbors stopped by two pop-ups on Saturday, April 19, to learn about and provide input on the Neighborhood Greenways slated for implementation along San Jose and Versailles Avenues. Ken Der chats with attendees about their opinions on the draft concept plans and what they think could be improved. https://alamedapost.com/news/neighbors-turn-up-neighborhood-greenways-pop-ups/

Great new analysis of SF #SlowStreets by @braitsch. Crashes and injuries are down, with trivial impact on emergency response times despite SFFD opposition.

It’s wild to come to Slow Sanchez and there’s seating in the street and whole families walking in the street like it’s the most natural thing. This was the original dream of #SlowStreets but I didn’t know it was still alive anywhere. No one even does that on Page let alone Lake, Shotwell, Noe…

Whatever happened to the Summer of Slow Page? None of this stuff actually got put up for approval. #SlowStreets

After robust public comment on the designs for the new Aquatic Center, City Council voted for a 30-meter pool and an activity pool, rather than a single 50-meter pool. Karin K. Jensen also reports that Council voted to keep most Slow Street barricades until later Neighborhood Greenway development.

The August 28 Transportation Commission meeting was packed full of project updates that affect Alameda transit. Ken Der dives into the agenda, including updates on Neighborhood Greenways, the possibility of a rail stop in Alameda, and a massive project that may cause extended 24/7 tube closures.

The barricades are coming down! The City is working to convert many Slow Streets to Neighborhood Greenways, and they are seeking public feedback. Take an online survey on how the City should handle speed reduction tools, safety measures, traffic reduction tools, and more.
