Walk Bike Berkeley is deeply upset that Elise Lusk was killed when a motorist hit her as she walked across Ada Street at California Street on January 26. A trip to the grocery store should not end in tragedy. Ms. Lusk’s preventable death again highlights that the City must redouble its Vision Zero efforts to eliminate severe and fatal collisions. We call on the City to quickly install simple, proven measures to slow vehicle traffic and protect pedestrians in response to this and other recent collisions.

Our statement on Elise Lusk’s tragic death.

At Peets we knew him as Jameel. He’d always order a decaf drip coffee and a side of simple syrup. May his memory be a blessing

Omg John! I thought I saw you on your way the the bay bridge today!!! I must have done my lap around treasure island right before you. Here’s some pics from my ride

Final result-- NO CENSURE. All board members to get training, and additional executive coaching to be required of Syed and made available to all. Seems like Executive Coaching is a good thing for all board members to take anyway #ACTransit

New year, new bike!

Over the moon to get this @ternbicycles.com HSD in my evolving journey using bikes as my main form of transportation.

Thought I’d take a moment to share my biking journey as a parent of 2 kids who has now been #carfree for about 7 months and #carlight for over 10 years. 🧵

Six benches stacked up in two piles on my front yard pathway

We have been working on a website for the guerilla bench project which is now presentable enough to share: bench.builders

See where benches are, report problems, and suggest spots that could use a bench.

Wahoo!

We took BART to our first date, and even our wedding.

Please join me in congratulating @barnalighosh.bsky.social, the newest member of the @bart.gov board of directors!

Bumper to bumper traffic, two lanes for cars and one bus lane

You’re telling me there’s STILL bumper to bumper traffic even after removing bike lanes and adding a lane for cars?!?!

Congratulations mayor-elect Ishii!!! @adenaishii.bsky.social
Glad my kids got to meet her tonight. Onward to a brighter future!

how do you know this and what happens to their votes?

On Thursday, Nov 14th, I was riding home from BART. At Rose and Josephine in Berkeley, an intersection that I have always treated with care, and especially after dark, I ended up witnessing this tragedy. I saw a car hit a pedestrian (Ben I later learned).

Ben Brown: Chef, loving uncle, 'champion of the people' "He stood up for his rights, he stood up for everyone else's rights," said his niece, Angie Perkins. "He just honored everyone."

I always appreciate when @berkeleyscanner.bsky.social publishes a profile of someone in the news and gives us a glimpse at their life. This one is a standout. Thank you, Emilie. www.berkeleyscanner.com/2024/11/18/t...
