"Reform UK supporters were more likely[...] to say their area had [...] declined" - People see change that is bad, but don't see that change is needed to stop the bad. #livableStreets #15minuteCities #makeChangeNormalAgain

#Marseille is full of people driving like assholes. More prominent are those driving too fast, too loud or both. Besides voting for politicians to prod the absent local police to fine these people, do you think there's a street equivalent of "dude, not cool"?

From October 1st, the city of Haarlem has introduced a 30 km/h speed limit on several streets. The aim is to improve safety for cyclists and pedestrians.

#Boston Cyclists Union reported on Facebook today:

"We are devastated to learn of the passing of Samuel Alvarado, who was killed after being hit by a garbage truck driver while biking this morning in Allston. The fatal crash happened at the Cambridge and Hano St intersection.

"Our hearts are with Samuel's loved ones.

"This tragic crash highlights two key dangers that people who bike face: unsafe roadways and large trucks. Safety improvements for this area are long overdue - as are safety improvements for large vehicles that are driven on our streets.

Samuel should be alive today. #VisionZero

this is what #livablestreets mean to me. as a family, walk out the door for brunch; keep walking and find street furniture; drop by the farmers market and run into friends. AND have zero need for a car.

I often think what criteria I would want in a city I’d like to move to. It would be in this order
1. Walkable
2. Efficient tram/light rail/ train service
3. Safe bike infrastructure

The harder part for me to find include:
4. Diversity (racial and lifestyle)
5. Safety
6. English speaking or can easily converse in English

Streets for People isn't just about getting from one place to another, it's also about being in the place you're in.

from twitter.com/berkie1/status/1593632191518593024, a diagram "Social Interactions on Three Streets" from https://www.elsevier.com/books/livable-streets-20/appleyard/978-0-12-816028-2
of three streets, with Heavy, Moderate, and Light traffic, with lines tracing the social connections between residents and gathering places.  The housing in the diagram is far more dense than many heavy traffic streets in suburban neighborhoods.
