Ohio based YIMBY advocating for strong, beautiful, walkable cities. More trains everywhere please 🙏

The damage done by urban renewal and the postwar development pattern can't be overstated.

[Cincinnati Business Courier @BusinessCourier]

The Federal Railroad Administration is advancing two new Amtrak routes that would run through Cincinnati. https://t.co/mFXk1NrL1E

We need to go back to being a country that proposes multiple subway systems at a time, and then build said systems within a decade.

This is a very cool opportunity for a midsize city like Canton!

[Chris 🦝 (READ BIO!!) @TrashPanda08x]

This flew under the radar but Canton Ohio SARTA is proposing a 9.8mil streetcar, running mostly on freight track and using possibly battery trains

It’s time for Ohio to step up and invest in transit opportunities outside besides cars. Long distance rail and light rail could really benefit the corridor. @ODOT_Columbus @ODOT_Toledo #rail #Transit

[Jo Ingles @joingles]

Gov Mike DeWine is in Delaware County at the moment to talk about what can be done on US23 to alleviate traffic tieups. Most locals know 23 as the road to avoid if they can. It is a mess w/39 traffic lights over 23 miles and it is getting worse as the area grows.

I've lived near Toledo, Ohio for the past 6 years and it has always felt like a shell of a city. Downtown always feels uninviting, and one of the main reasons for that is the excessive parking. If @city_of_toledo wants to improve it must densify downtown. #YIMBY #Parking

Launching @LinkusColumbus this morning in Columbus! Such a huge initiative that is going to transform our city. 🤩

@ThunderWolf08 I need every proposed route for Ohio to be approved and built! A thank you in advance @Amtrak @FTA_DOT

[Luke Dahlinghaus (Talking Cities) @talking_cities_]

@steve78333 @cityofdayton I absolutely love the trolley busses! Wish the system could get an expansion.

[Luke Dahlinghaus (Talking Cities) @talking_cities_]

Dayton, Ohio is kinda OP for having the nations largest paved trail and bike path system in the U.S. @cityofdayton #bike #naturetrail #bikepath

Toledo, Ohio 😍

[𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 @Matt_Pinner]

Can you name the city?

[Luke Dahlinghaus (Talking Cities) @talking_cities_]

If @Amtrak service makes its way to Columbus, Ohio the City should highly consider investment in a light rail system to connect the suburbs to the city. #publictransit #ohio #LRT

[Luke Dahlinghaus (Talking Cities) @talking_cities_]

This is only a fraction of the infill developments in Columbus over the last few years. Still, the city has plenty of underutilized space downtown that could benefit from redevelopment. @ColumbusGov
