After the tragic West Loop bicycle crash at Halsted/Madison, we're on the lookout for other construction sites with safety issues for people biking and walking. Use #ClearTheWay and email photo, location, any details to [email protected] #bikechi

I see housing resistance at public meetings often. How do we gather voices of the under-represented, especially those who would move TO a locality if the right housing was made available?

[Bill Lucia @bill_lucia]

Interesting research here on who shows up to make public comments at local meetings about housing proposals. One key finding: those who turn out tend to overwhelmingly oppose new development. https://t.co/0ND4Ci3csv

@Metra Bike racks! Maybe not on every car, but a small percentage of all cars purchased could have them to have as alternatives for train sets. @activetrans @rideillinois

Leanne Redden of RTA speaking at #ChiTransitFuture: “We need other people to tell our story” instead of the transit agencies trying to communicate their funding needs solo. Citizens talking about it will convince state legislators that the needs are real.

Dedicated transit lanes still on the table for North Lake Shore Drive reconstruction https://t.co/XNN0JCBlHF Sign our letter to @GovRauner @ChicagosMayor to make sure bus lanes are included in final design for @n_lakeshoredr!

Super excited to read about @The_Mom_Project in @CrainsChicago. This makes the decision to have a child more tenable since my current job doesn’t offer enough flexibility to reasonably pursue reproduction. #reproductionincentives #inclusiveeconomy

Don't forget to pick up your 2-page pull-out paper copy of the Mellow Chicago Bike Map in the current @Chicago_Reader free weekly paper, because when they're gone, they're gone!

To be a part of history, you need to know your history. Pick up a book at @wcfbook!

Another great experience @ATLairport with fast security. I loved the multiple stations for loading baggage through the scanners so you aren’t waiting behind others. Innovative and efficient design! Thank you!

@StarLineChicago Ugh I didn’t find the BL reference and he’s my favorite!
