BREAKING: U.S. DOT Orders Review of All Grants Related to Green Infrastructure, Bikes — Streetsblog USA Now U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is coming for our bike lanes!

Let’s be clear about the impact of this DOT memo: Pedestrians and cyclists are going to die. usa.streetsblog.org/2025/03/12/b...

The senator said it... We are living in dark times. Making streets safer for all users shouldn't be partisan or ideological. Regardless of if you walk, bike, take transit or drive, we all want to travel safely without the risk of injury or death.

This move ends three decades of work at the E.P.A. to try to ease the pollution that burdens poor and minority communities, which are frequently located near highways, power plants, industrial plants and other polluting facilities.

"A whole new level of cruelty": Health experts decry "devastating" cuts to HIV treatment programs The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation said the latest cuts will deprive 350,000 people of HIV treatment.

“What’s transpired over the last three or four days just takes it to a whole new level of cruelty and inhumanity and, frankly, a whole new level of stupidity in doing this is the most non-strategic way.” Tens of thousands of people will die as a result of this action.

I, for one, am pretty fond of Canada.

Very on-brand. I wish they were making a bigger deal of the frequency that was added with the schedule change, but all the comms seem to be focused on the holiday trains and their 50th anniversary.

No longer a Seattle person, but I'd would love to see something on the current state of fare collection/boarding. I'm currently visiting and glad to see that the rear-door ORCA validators are in use on buses.
