@KostelecPlan @rightlegpegged @JaclynCashman Current photo at the other end where it's very easy to hit the curb because of higher speed and especially in winter.

@notjustbikes @wtyppod Across the river in Boston, a 2016 Sorriest Bus Stop finalist has been "upgraded" with ramps and bike lanes, or whatever this is.

[Jeremy M @CriticalTransit]

@notjustbikes @wtyppod One of the busiest biking and running routes in Cambridge, Mass. (next to Boston), the path just ends. Do I bike on the 1-meter-wide walkway with people walking/running or in the road against traffic coming around a blind corner? Is that what the painted strip is meant for?

[Jeremy M @CriticalTransit]

@jasonbylsma @thebostonlol @jfh I just don't understand why BTD officers walk around giving tickets for expired meters and no permits but nobody seems to care about cars blocking traffic, bus/bike lanes and crosswalks/sidewalks. Seems like those are more important.

[Jeremy M @CriticalTransit]

@SomervilleInfr1 Please please please make the new asphalt smooth like the roadways are. Some of these new bike lanes are like riding a roller coaster.

[Jonathan Fertig @rightlegpegged]

What @transitmatters achieved today is nothing short of profound.
Outstanding, whip-smart grassroots advocacy has put Massachusetts on the course to completely reimagine its commuter rail network as high-frequency regional rail.
Congrats to all involved.

@SprocketPodcast How disappointing that the Worst Day of the Year Ride has been moved due to bad weather. I'm not sure they understood the point of the ride. https://t.co/yMwSsJLR0X

[Jeremy M @CriticalTransit]

@oranv Did you consider making the lines faded to represent the very limited frequency that minimizes its usefulness?

What, exactly, is the the point of having health insurance in America if I pay the company yet they don't pay my health care costs? This is called a scam. Only in America. USA! USA! Time for #MedicareForAll

Nice to see @transitmatters hard work starting to produce results and achieve wider recognition, and I'm proud to have been part of the small group who got it started. https://t.co/aUWLbIyDOq

I'm a transit planner & a bus driver, and if I can't understand your service in two minutes or less, with minimal knowledge of the area, you're not explaining it well. Example # 2,586: https://t.co/9OBSCyGcAJ

Or, in the world’s richest nation, where the majority are poor and cities full of cara, we could stop charging fares altogether. https://t.co/pCbTveIdT5

[Rebecca Saltzman @RebeccaForEC]

I voted against expansion of proof of payment enforcement program due to extreme disparate impact and because there's no data that shows that this $1+ million annual expense is effective compared to other options to address fare evasion.

@pedalshift looking forward to the live show tonight if i make it to Brookings, Oregon in time and have good wifi. If not, well, i made it, almost.
