Tonight we #CriticalMass rolled to show that all people, ages, and abilities desperately want to safely roll through our city - we just need safe infrastructure to do so #CLT

@sigma_47 I did feel like an asshole while filming this, but it's only meant to highlight what Hennepin County is proposing people on bikes do when they rebuild Lyndale in 2027 with a shared use path, mixing e-bikes, scooters, and pedestrians in the same space

[Dylan @DylanDoubly]

this would upend my entire life

[Josh Benner @jbenner62]

@Tesho13 @dansputman Not really when you consider how much more concentrated businesses were back then. Also the increased loop lines on the streetcars would have been quite helpful. I doubt the bus has more frequency than the streetcars and the rider experience was probably more pleasant

@JHolmesLives (3/3) .@JHolmesLives’ unwavering service & dedication to our city & its people will forever be remembered. He believed in creating a more equitable, connected community & lived that mission every single day. His legacy will continue to inspire me & others. 💔

[Marjorie W. Molina @vote_molina]

(1/3) I’m sitting with the heartbreaking 💔 deeply saddening news of .@JHolmesLives’ passing. He was such a bright light across Charlotte—a husband, father, veteran, and passionate transit advocate who gave so much to our community.

I’m running for re-election because the stakes have never been higher. We need leaders who will take bold action to protect reproductive freedom, our immigrant & refugee neighbors, our Trans & LGBTQIA+ community, & all Black, Brown, Indigenous, and unhoused residents in our city.

@seandsweeney Volts if you’re interested in a variety of climate topics - particularly as it relates to retrofitting passivehaus to small multifamily or level 1/2 charging off of buildings

[Josh Benner @jbenner62]

@seandsweeney I don’t have a warehouse but I have the rest of unfilled commercial spaces to sell you that already has 1,3, and 5 in my condo building

I am proud to have authored and passed the North Star Promise Act. Students have the right to access our higher education institutions without being burdened with lifelong debt!

@wpb003 @Minnesota_Toz The Preferred Alternative won't even be selected until at least 2028 according to their schedule - let alone whatever construction they do on I94(probably 3-5 years of construction).

So this should open and serve riders before they've even made decisions on I94

October Critical Mass is just a week away

@JHolmesLives I nod and raise you it’s even worse sibling

As Washington, DC increased bike lanes, Lime's incident rate decreased.

Michigan State University:

You'll have *14* days of in-person early voting at School of Journalism/WKAR from Oct 21-Nov 3 from 10 am to 6 pm. You can vote absentee (in person) at MSU clerk office now until then

They actually have 5 more EV days than University of Michigan 🤫

I’d trust the Governor of Minnesota on housing.

[Josh Benner @jbenner62]

@happifydesign Is your point here that there’s fewer restaurants or less public seating? Because there’s way more hotels and apartments on marq2 - both of which I imagine generate more consistent pedestrians at all hours
