We document lived experience of people with disabilities. Can we fix sidewalks and bus stops before moving onto 'big' projects? #infrastructure #maintenance #ADA #disability #Denver photo credits MWagner https://t.co/Caipeigtoa

How time inefficient and uncertain are paratransit trips for people with #disabilities? We provide conclusive evidence of system-level inefficiency in the #Denver region (graph: red paratransit, blue car as counterfactual, ) #transit #disabilityrights https://t.co/e9bsBGIPCi

@jamal_shaila Congratulations!

@sarajcarr Congratulations! Well deserved!!

My #Transportation #policy class went to the #Regional Metropolitan Planning Organization's office. Cool to see what the MPO is doing with #airpollution #climaterisk #modeling and activity-based thinking. Thanks @DRCOGorg! @CUDenverMURP

Thanks everyone!

Tenured! Couldn’t have done this without the mentorship and advocacy of too many individuals to list here, and contributions from co-authors, community/industry partners, and students. My immediate and extended family have walked alongside, through a pandemic, and share equally.

[Manish Shirgaokar @CityProfessor]

@sarajcarr Will do that!

[Manish Shirgaokar @CityProfessor]

Molly Wagner passed her thesis defense! Her work shows how #ADA for #transportation fails in government and industry. The answer is not just more funding but a cross-sectoral, collaborative approach. Look out for work by this rising star! @CUDenverMURP @CUDenResearch @NASEMTRB

@DocDantzler Cannot wait to get our analysis out there for others to use.

@DrTaraGoddard OMG! What an ordeal! Happy there was no more damage or injury.

[Manish Shirgaokar @CityProfessor]

@DrTaraGoddard @True_cost They're some rumblings to study this systematically with multiple colleagues I've spoken to. I'm going to be interested in who's access got shut of among neighbors. Largely historically minority neighborhoods around this golf course.

If this regular #bicycle to #ebike conversion toolkit mainstreams, esp. at a lower prices than 100cc mopeds, it will be a serious game changer in resource constrained economies like #India. Many considerations incl. #accessibility #mobility #RoadSafety https://t.co/9XFsCCAMYN

Congratulations to the brilliant Dr. @anna_bierbrauer for successfully defending her @cudenvercap dissertation today entitled "Erasing, Forgetting, and Recalling Aridity: Denver's Garden System, 1902-1980." 1/1

Achievement level unlocked: Boring academic work cited by government policy document in another county! Gee, we must be doing something useful. Perhaps there may even be real policy change - the academic's dream. https://t.co/GNNNgRFrnj

If you were not able to join @theAAG in person this year, we also have virtual Transportation Justice sessions!

I'll present in 30 minutes about #gender and #experiences during #travel alongside 4 other interesting presenters! @UrbanDemog @HannahRKing92 @AAG_TGSG

[Manish Shirgaokar @CityProfessor]

@PDez90 @SusanAnenberg @True_cost @PatrickKinney20 @SenseableCity It's all YOUR work. Thank you for pushing this onward!

Last year I taught myself R with resources I primarily found via Twitter. I've been meaning to share some of the resources here, and I finally have a little time today. So here they are... 🧵
