A "sign" of great things to come on Broadway! #Denver is installing multimodal improvements from 7th to Center Aves, including the longest 2-way protected bikeway in CO and making it safer to travel & cross the corridor on foot. #BroadwayMoves #VisionZero https://t.co/5DtL0EEOqm

The last 24 hours have been...interesting, so I'd like to introduce myself to some new friends, & move in a positive direction.

My goal is to create a more beautiful, walkable equitable, affordable, sustainable world. Here's a good place to start!

New report highlights CO's lack of teacher diversity.
"By 2050, POC...will make up...46% of CO's pop...(but) in 20-21, the % of teachers of color was 1.6%...Black & 8.8%....Hispanic/Latinx."

Report includes evidenced-based strategies about how we can address this challenge!

[The Colorado Sun @ColoradoSun]

Lawmakers have set in motion a state stipend program that will forgive up to $5,000 in student loans for teachers who recently started their careers.

Love this visualization for how we can create safe, efficient, and cost-effective infrastructure for all!

[UHealth BikeSafe @iBikeSafe]

#Protectedbikelanes and #protectedintersections solve many of the issues that currently make cycling unsafe in the US.

It's entirely possible to make riding safe for people of all ages and abilities. All we need are the facilities that make it so.

Improving how states regulate has the potential to be one of the most cost-effective approaches to boosting the economy. https://t.co/hiZIgAzOGE

I think my main criticism of adulthood is there are no surprise Scholastic Book Fairs. Nothing brightens a day like a surprise book fair.

Tremendous scene captured by photographer Brian Magee at Friday night’s @SirWalterMiler. 13 men finished the race. 13 broke four minutes for the mile. @lopezlomong took the win in 3:53.86.

Always a great show in Raleigh.
