Hoping, praying that DOTI + CDOT don't see this and get any ideas

The city says that sidewalks will cost 3x what the ordinance's estimate is, with no reasoning why. Even though it matches their own estimate from a few years ago.

It sounds to me like the city does not want to build sidewalks.

Someone find that account that overlays the chart of every bad metric you can think of with the Reagan administration.

It’s almost kinda surprising how often you look into the origin of some issue and surprise! it’s Ronald Regan

@TheCharlier @NoSquish I know of the most insane 1/4 mile of useless bike lane you have ever seen. Just pure stats boosting.

@Anti_id0L Name n shame for us normies pls

[Andy Boenau @Boenau]

5% of people ride bicycles, so we can't do anything for them.

5% of people drive electric cars, so we're planning a national charging network.

@BryanByBike Thanks for looking me in. What time?

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

@bikeinCO The worst part is that she is absolutely right

On second thought, maybe creating a horde of low-paid, untrained delivery and taxi drivers whose only incentive is to drive as fast as possible while staring at their phones was a bad idea.

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

@antistuff I guess when you're used to no law enforcement at all, even the tiniest bit feels like oppression.

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

A single speed enforcement cop in the city is big enough news to hit the top of r/denver where the thread is full of cagers who are angry about it.

Very healthy society we have built.

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

@BryanByBike I don't report things as often as I used to. I've never had a satisfying outcome. Good responses happen, but for the most part it's "ticket closed <reason that makes no sense>"

But I agree that it's important

@DenverDOTI 🤦‍♂️

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

@realtalkremy @Ottelia @DenverPolice No.

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

@alebikexson Doesn't this stretch of Franklin already have sharrows? IIRC They've been there forever. The project is to make it a "neighborhood bikeway" (sharrows).

Are they just pretending to improve existing infrastructure to juice the stats and meet their 125 mile goal?

[Concerned Citizen Eugene Tooms @eugene2ms]

DOTI is bragging about these upcoming "bikeway corridors". Like 90% of it is sharrows. What are we even doing. Who is ultimately responsible for this mess?

@iBikeCommute Can't wait to vote for the dude with infinite money who is super proud of his choice to commute from Boulder to Denver in his ICE vehicle.
