These changes will make downtown trips for me and many other cyclists much safer. Thank you, BostonTransportation! mass.streetsblog.org/2024/05/06/tra… #mapoli #bospoli

If this were a more common sight across the U.S., policy would look a lot different. 👍🏿

Congrats to Transportation for Massachusetts on the new branding and website! #mapoli

Greater Boston's Zipcar for electric cargo bikes. I signed up this weekend and you should, too! #mapoli #bospoli

American politics are pretty depressing right now. If you need a boost, read this profile of Burhan Azeem, Cambridge City Councillor, my latest for MIT Technology Review—he's a 20something city councilor who's passed remarkable climate, affordable housing and public transit policy technologyreview.com/2024/04/23/109…

The urban streetscape is a finite public asset that needs to be shared by all modes of transport, including transit & cycling. Thanks to Mayor Michelle Wu 吳弭 for her forward looking leadership making our streets safer & more fairly designed. It's the right thing to do wbur.org/news/2024/05/2…

"The grass-roots effort that beat back Boston’s proposal about 10 years ago was much like the successful effort in the late 1960s to prevent the Inner Belt freeway from destroying city neighborhoods." bostonglobe.com/2024/05/19/opi… #mapoli #bospoli

I will be on WBUR's Radio Boston at 11AM today to talk MBTA $$$ and the long-awaited new fare collection system with Stacy Thompson of LivableStreets. Tune in on 90.9 or at wbur.org! #mapoli #bospoli

“It’s pretty fun, we’ll admit, for two and a half weeks. But you’re left with this multibillion dollar hangover and a bunch of venues that you don’t really need for the long-term health of your city,” said Chris Dempsey of No Boston Olympics. wgbh.org/news/local/202…

Statement from Joe Petty and I on Traffic Violence.

Smart policies from the team Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC). Not only do they raise revenue to fund improved transportation, they also discourage unnecessary vehicle trips. We need lots more of this to fix our worst-in-the-nation congestion. x.com/MAPCMetroBosto… #mapoli

Great piece by Chris Dempsey in today's Commonwealth Beacon newsletter! Few better voices to make the case that Mayor Michelle Wu 吳弭's plan for White Stadium has been open and transparent. Let's move forward and bring this important community asset into the 21st century. massinc.bluelena.io/index.php?acti…

Jesse Kanson-Benanav Chris Dempsey Mayor Michelle Wu 吳弭 So many excellent points. I'm really happy that the Franklin Park Boston coalition supports the plan as that voice got lost in the NIMBY lawsuits other orgs I live a few blocks from the park. I love that more people will get to discover and use this underused Boston treasure

Admittedly, the White Stadium plan has been an issue of concern to me. But Chris Dempsey, someone I deeply respect, has made a strong case for support. Worth a read… massinc.bluelena.io/index.php?acti…
