“But it makes no sense that we should be afraid of places where people can get most of what we need, closer by. Maybe our kids can even walk to the store! No walls, no guards…It’s just a normal, “common sense” place to live — as most cities used to be, before we mandated car dependency.” #UrbanTruth

This has been a real pain for folks in Toronto. "Nobody bikes in winter, why should we clear the bike lanes"
My brother, nobody bikes in winter because you don't clear the bike lanes.
Great video by @nicthedoor.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN5m... on lessons we can learn from Nanaimo, Canada (pop 100k). The level crossings for sidewalks and bike lanes across side streets 👨🏻🍳💋!
If you ever get down to Seattle Nic give us a shout and we'll show you around!
One of my favourite Urbanist creators is BACK!

Iowa politicians want to make cycling a lot harder. Threatening jail time for riding on sidewalks and roads with a 25mph+ limit.
Why are they like this...

@techconnectify.bsky.social goes OFF.
Been a fan for a long time, Alec has always been based but the political comments at the back end of this video takes the cake 👏👏👏

I don't like a lot of what our premier in BC has been up to but I sure am glad he's called a spade a spade. Soliciting foreign powers to interfere in your politics is treason plain and simple.

While I'm not a big fan of diagonal crossings for cyclists, much welcome improvements coming to one of the busiest bike routes in Vancouver!

I’ve been working on this video with HUB Cycling since last summer and I’m incredibly excited to share it with you soon! It looks at the growing divide in how cities approach bikeshare and scootershare, and the messy history of how we got to this point.

Do you live in a city that doesn’t get covered that much by urbanist YouTube?
Or at least a city that *I* haven’t covered that much?
I’m trying to create a crowd-sourced footage archive to let urbanist YouTube cover more places!
Interested in: skylines, buses, trains, bikes, housing, etc.
This is how you keep people rolling all year long 👏
