One mid-sized city to rule them all.

Detailed care & thoughtfulness in design & installation of this protected intersection at 2nd Ave/Spring is readily apparent from user interactions. Slow and careful maneuvering by turning vehicles and comfort of people and canine using the crossing! Way to go, @Tracktwentynine

This turned out to be a great thread of terrible intersections. It’s almost like we know where the terrible intersections are already???

If you could improve a single intersection in the city, which one would you pick and what would you do to it?

Walk around Richmond for 10 minutes and you’ll likely come across 11 ways our city decides to be hostile to people.

Richmond didn’t see any scooter equity improvements in December—in fact, half our scooters just...went away!

TRAINSSSSSS

ALERT: Virginia, CSX reach $3.7B deal that will vastly expand Amtrak, VRE service (including weekend service) in and out of DC over next 10 years.
It’ll be biggest change to region’s rail service in decades. It starts next year: https://t.co/CjbAbgiT4g

Double frustrating since the only reason this street wasn’t closed to vehicles entirely was to preserve access to the loading docks. Trucks! Please use the space you already stole from pedestrians!

Some weird-looking cargo bikes in the bike lane next to @VCUCabell.

[Streets Cred @_StreetsCred_]

One of those is a @VCU vehicle whose driver *should* know better. 🤷‍♀️

@NmotionTravel So weird. Don’t think they are on the ground in Richmond anymore, and they just launched the Chariot right before this whole thing. But still no confirmation.

It’s been a bunch of days since all the Bolt scooters in Richmond vanished, yet we haven’t heard a single thing about it. Who’s writing that story??

All I want for Xmas is for people to need less reliance on cars. 🎅🏼🎄🤞🏽

@seaofcells @BirdRide @Bolt_Now No idea. There just aren't any out there.

[Streets Cred @_StreetsCred_]

Looks like @BirdRide is the only scooter game in town today. All hail Bird, your new scooter overlords!

[Streets Cred @_StreetsCred_]

Anyone know where all the @Bolt_Now scooters went?
