See a bike facility that needs maintenance? We added a new category to the Find It, Fix It app: “Bike Facility Maintenance.”

We do our best to promptly respond to requests while balancing urgency and crew & equipment availability. More: https://t.co/ES6oyuljKM

@WaterfrontSEA @seattledot @WaterfrontSEA @seattledot how many more “close calls” do we need to tolerate at Pike & Melrose?

Are you waiting for blood?

Are you listening?

Thank you @jseattle and Capitol Hill Seattle for covering the ongoing safety issues with the Pike & Melrose intersection. I hope SDOT and Office of the Waterfront will continue to listen to community feedback. 🙏

With push from community group -- and one particularly effective citizen -- city making safety changes at Melrose and Pike https://t.co/FNmzo426Yn

WSDOT wants to cut a key bike/walk connection from the future Roanoke Lid that costs just 1% of the project budget.

@CSGreenways says NO! Join us in urging the state to restore this long-promised bike/ped tunnel and trail. Send a letter here:

It's been 3 weeks since we wrote to @seattledot @WaterfrontSEA @MayorofSeattle @CMRobSaka @CMJoyHollings @Spottnik about these problems and asked to meet to discuss solutions. No one has replied. The intersection is still dangerous.
#VisionZero is just a slogan, I guess.

[Streetcrafting🚶🚴‍♂️ 🚊 @streetcrafting]

@WaterfrontSEA @WaterfrontSEA @seattledot I just witnessed a very close near collision between an EB vehicle on Pike and a SB driver pushing through the Melrose half signal. How many conflicts do I need to document here before someone takes action? #WhatsTheVisionHereSDOT #VisionZero

City says listening to safer streets advocates as it faces crashes and near misses in overhauled Pike/Pine connection between downtown and Capitol Hill https://t.co/JtlVY56die

This Sunday we're thrilled to welcome @JeanBeaudoin_. At our Building Great Streets event, he will explain how Montreal became a leading city for pedestrianizing streets and what Seattle can do to follow in their footsteps.

Get tickets for the event. ⬇️

Still no response from @seattledot @Spottnik @CMJoyHollings @CMRobSaka to our request to address these problems ASAP. Bike Everywhere Day is tomorrow and this could be many people's introduction to the way Seattle treats people on bikes.

@seattledot @seattledot I’m without words… I just witnessed by far the closest near collision I’ve ever seen… with a driver neatly running over a person rolling. The half signal at Pike & Melrose is a hazard for all street users. #WhatsTheVisionHereSDOT #VisionZero

@Spottnik @seattledot current condition of the Pike bike lane between 8th & 9th. Can we get a proper direct and signed detour here?

[Streetcrafting🚶🚴‍♂️ 🚊 @streetcrafting]

@Spottnik can we please get your eyes on the Pike & 8th construction detour? A lot of people are excited for this project to be complete, but it’s currently a confusing and hazardous mess. Thanks!

[Streetcrafting🚶🚴‍♂️ 🚊 @streetcrafting]

@Seattledot @WaterfrontSEA @CMJoyHollings excited to get the Pike + Pine Project Update emails. However once again it’s sparse on Bike detour details and the stated detour at Pike & 9th (should be 8th) doesn’t actually exist (and hasn’t for many weeks). How do we solve this?
