🚶‍♀️ 🚴 🚌 🛴 🚊 Exploring mobility, placemaking and infrastructure in Seattle, LA, NYC and other cities

Working with GAF Roads, a division of GAF, 5 years ago we applied an innovative protective roadway coating to neighborhoods across LA. I’m excited to share how this emerging approach to pavement preservation has been further refined and is now a promising alternative to traditional methods and materials. (2/2)

This spring, I’m teaming up with GAF Roads, a division of GAF, to raise awareness of an innovative approach to maintaining residential streets. Five years ago, in my role as Chief Sustainability Officer for StreetsLA, I led a program that installed the GAF coating in neighborhoods across Los Angeles. Since then, GAF Roads has further refined its approach and I’m excited to share the results with you. #GAFRoads_Partner

Let me know your thoughts on this bold new map design

[MTA @MTA]

Say hello to a new subway map! Today, the MTA unveiled a new subway diagram that provides riders with essential travel information in an easily readable, bright, and orderly manner.

Check it out on digital screens in stations, and as it rolls out on train cars over the next month: https://t.co/GUz6WKp9zZ

The first cherry blossoms of the season have flowered 🌸 Petite and dainty 'Okame' trees are blooming in the Japanese Garden and at the end of the Promenade.

'Okame' should be in bloom for the next week, weather-dependent.
