New stripping @ dangerous intersection Main St & Water St has left turn & straight lanes 4 cars. Extra space should be a bike lane. Going up hills while cycling in a car lane is the worst! Extend it to Alfred! Improve safety for bikes and peds! @BiddMECity @mgrohman @BiddmeWard7

@KevinRBing If that is true and provable in documents or some sort of record the family of the victim should file a suit against the councilman.

@SolomonforJC Safety is not all about how quickly EMS or JCFD can respond to a call but it should include keeping people safer in the first place so that the number of crashes and need for those calls decreases. This fully funded project is part of that solution. Thank you for your support!

We’re out of here. BS also stands for the alternative.

@NHLAdamK Gaudreau brothers go out for a bicycle ride and end up dead. All the tributes & memorials are moving & heartbreaking but when will the NHL take a stronger stance against drinking & driving?

@MikeLydon Scale the vehicles to the streets not the streets to the vehicles.

@bikejc @StevenFulop @yousefjsaleh Reminds us of the support for the Grand Street Vision. That was a crucial first step for downtown. This will be a crucial first step for the Heights neighborhood.
Build it!!!

1/♾️ LOTS of people in the Heights want the piloted, paid-for, protected bike lane on Manhattan Ave. and Franklin St. We’ll show you more of them every day! 3rd pic is the sign they’re all holding. Please tell city leaders you want it too, right here: https://t.co/9SPr4kRwe1

@ShabazzStuart Talking on the phone.

@MikeLydon @JerseyCity @StevenFulop @StreetPlans Beautiful! Interesting to see the Councilman standing in between the Mayor and the head of the Department of Infrastructure. He led the charge to have the Bergen Ave protected cycle track removed when it was first installed. Maybe he’s finally coming around, na probably not.

[BikeBS @BikeBiddoSaco]

@MikeLydon JSK was the one who originally changed this into public space correct?

[BikeBS @BikeBiddoSaco]

@jcclickdontfix Baldwin is a nightmare. Gee I wonder who's the councilman there?

[BikeBS @BikeBiddoSaco]

@bikejc Very cool. @BiddMECity should do this on Main St. btw. Alfred and Washington.

[BikeBS @BikeBiddoSaco]

@mgrohman Holy crap. That sucks. Put his bike on the outside of the rack from now on!

New: The Department of Transportation allowed trucking lobbyists to review an unpublished report recommending a safety device that could save lives by preventing pedestrians and cyclists from getting crushed under large trucks. https://t.co/vYhFte1hH2

This bike rack at Mechanics Park is a good example of how racks could be installed in the cobblestone bump outs along MainSt which would add more needed bike racks, keep sidewalks clear & help prevent cars from illegally parking on those spots. @BiddMECity @mgrohman @BiddmeWard7

[BikeBS @BikeBiddoSaco]

To paraphrase Katrina Johnston-Zimmerman, If there is 1 woman w/child who can use the lane to bike that child to school, safely, happily & healthily, that is enough of a reason to build that bike lane. If you’re not thinking that way you’re doing it wrong. @BiddMECity @sacomaine

Teen cyclist killed by truck driver on First Avenue today — the record 18th cyclist to die on the streets so far this year: https://t.co/8M4WFdm7ou

[Arian nicht alle Berndts sind Faschos @ayranundspeck]

Berlin's new transport secretary issued an order that "all new cycle infrastructure projects" are to be "halted, re-evaluated, or cancelled" should they "endanger a single parking spot" or "one or more traffic [sic] lanes".
