Reimagining Miami-Dade’s Rickenbacker Causeway into a multi-modal transportation & recreational asset that addresses safety, efficiency and resiliency for all.
We came, we #connected, and we celebrated community. 🎉
Last week we enjoyed #Community Connections: Speed Friending powered by @amazon and celebrated our neighborhood spotlight #LittleBahamas. (1/2)
➡️ The Rickenbacker walking path barely accommodates wheelchairs.
➡️ #paintisnotprotection. This bike lane only serves the fearless.
➡️ 51-56% of people need #protectedbikelanes. They don't prevent group rides who can claim the lane instead.

It's even more obvious when one realizes the bike lane is the only quality accommodation for those with wheelchairs.
The Rickenbacker needs #protectedbikelanes. It won't prevent the group rides from claiming the lane if they prefer more space.
Did you know effective July 1, 2021 per the @FloridaBicycle association, these new #saferroads mandates became the law across the state of Florida? https://t.co/KzNYcDQbZF
The preventable deaths due to poor road design need to end. I personally would still have my father alive if we had #saferroads.
How many more cyclists need to lose their lives?
Back in 2015, after the death of Walter Reyes, advocates gathered to demand change. Now, 2022, the death toll is 7 on @MiamiDadeCounty#Rickenbacker causeway. #saferroads#visionzero https://t.co/9VbJVpp7Dt
