Elections may not be on everyoneβs brains right now but if you live in the 36th or 74th Assembly districts of NYC, youβve got a chance to elect two great leaders to office. Safe streets ahead with @keithpowersnyc.bsky.social @dianaforqueens.com in office!

Happy new book day & huge congrats to the @thewaroncars.bsky.social crew. Iβm very excited to read this book & am already touched by the dedication page. Iβm taking it as a collective βour.β Things have to change in a big way for the next generation to even have a chance.

What kind of tree wrap is that though? Iβve had parks department experts point out the dangers to a treeβs health if itβs wrapped and canβt properly wick moisture, shed bark (depending on tree type), etc. Cute idea though overall!

Considering the consistent bottleneck of crowds exiting the D-N-R at Barclays, has there ever been thought to make a 2nd entrance at the platform's southern end at Bergen St? Wouldn't it help immensely? @2avesag.as @mta.info @cmshahanahanif.bsky.social @ridersalliance.org @brooklynspoke.bsky.social

When I think about Cuomoβs βmanagementβ style I of course think about how it drove away Byford, but also about this story and how Cuomoβs behavior was part of what led a man to suicide. www.nytimes.com/2021/01/15/n...

Itβs insane that there are people who think this is a burden on the community and would rather this is just vehicle parking & thru traffic. #StreetsAreForKids Cc @thewaroncars.bsky.social

I think logistics also plays a factor. DOT spends 18+ months probably analyzing a corridor, designing, presenting unofficially, then officially, and then when it gets gummed up by a CB or elected and has no backbone from City Hall, they canβt just whip out another project ready to go w/o more staff.

Agreed! Though some council members also fight DOT tooth and nail when it offers up a project. Both side deserve blame for this epic fail.

Isnβt this extremely more likely with the upcoming widening of 6th Ave #bikenyc lane? Has @nycdot.bsky.social committed to any sort of bollards to prevent such rampant abuse by cars?
