Fascinating walkshop at @NACTO Minneapolis. The Lake St BRT corridor is at the intersection of cost effective delivery, multi agency coordination, and recovery from traumatic events like the George Floyd killing & uprising and the ICE occupation.

From bus lanes to signal priority, we're building the first comprehensive inventory of transit priority programs across the U.S. and Canada.

We need data from ALL agencies—even if you don't have a program yet!

Learn more and take the survey: https://t.co/jD0oUNjXcN

How much transit priority is actually happening in the U.S. and Canada?

Right now, it’s hard to tell. No one is tracking these programs across state and regional lines.

NACTO is changing that with a new transit priority inventory—and we need your help.

The system is critically in need of more e-bikes and mechanics, but has been limited in its ability to expand within its funding structure.

Now, thanks to over $11m in grants, the City and its nonprofit operator, Blue Krewe, are laying the groundwork for long-term success.

.@CityOfNOLA plans to use an infusion of federal funds to expand micromobility options, spread the joy of biking, and build a sense of public ownership of @BlueBikesNOLA, its community-run bike share system.

Higher speeds = higher risk.

⚠️ Doubling a vehicle’s speed makes a crash 4x more forceful.
✨ Even small speed reductions deliver big safety benefits.

Designing for safe speeds saves lives. Learn more from our new guide: https://t.co/v091EaYHgn

Cities can deliver federally-funded projects that make a tangible difference.

In the year since NACTO member Columbus, OH used SS4A funding for a safety demonstration project, excessive speeding on the corridor is down by 89% and crashes have halved.

Excited to finally get my personal copy of the @NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide! I'm on a quest to understand how we design the best infrastructure to make biking a safe option for all. Bikes are a critical component of making our cities work for people.

The 11th edition of the MUTCD now recommends a proactive, contextual approach to speed limits–a change that NACTO members have long advocated for!

Our City Limits Quick Guide demonstrates how to use a Safe Speed Study to set a MUTCD-compliant speed limit. https://t.co/uq5YJNwMBI

[NACTO @NACTO]

In cities, transportation agencies have long understood that motor vehicle speed plays a key role in fatal and serious crashes. Slowing speeds through design and regulation changes saves lives.

NACTO's City Limits provides clear technical land policy guidance on how to strategically set speed limits on urban streets: https://t.co/7Iq9LQC6VZ

We can't lower traffic deaths without lowering speeds.

Lower speeds mean safer, more vibrant streets. And healthier, happier cities.

The Urban Bikeway Design Guide is more than a kit of parts to design a bike lane: it provides the how-to blueprint for creating a whole bike network for people of all ages, abilities, and identities.

Learn how to apply the guide in your city:

Coming soon to Denver: $75 million worth of new sidewalks!

"The new NACTO document even put a protected intersection on its cover — a reference, says director of policy and practice Stefanie Seskin, to this edition’s emphasis that cycling infrastructure goes beyond the bike lane."

“The @betterbikeshare Roundtable affirmed the need to center lived experience. It also challenged us to think critically about the language we use—what we mean by ‘justice,’ ‘mobility,’ and ‘community’—and who gets left out when we don’t.”

[DDOT DC @DDOTDC]

Day 2 of @NACTO's #DesigningCities Conference started strong with a panel on regional partnerships. #DDOTDC Director Sharon Kershbaum, @wmata's CEO Randy Clarke & @BmoreCityDOT's Director Veronica McBeth shared how collaboration drives progress across our region.
