@GrtcPulse@RVARapidTransit Thanks! Of course you know that realistically many people will not walk a block-plus out of their way when boarding/deboarding & this may create a ped safety issue there. I hope we can get add'l ped infrastructure where needed, let us know who to agitate! 🙂 @RVARapidTransit
How long will we be told there is no money for our schools, libraries, busses, streets, sidewalks, and essential infrastructure?

BREAKING: Cambridge, Massachusetts City Council has voted 8-1 to REMOVE ALL MINIMUM PARKING REQUIREMENTS from the city’s zoning code (commercial and residential)!
EXCLUSIVE: Richmond’s failed casino plans could get a second chance. Councilwoman Reva Trammell plans to introduce a resolution Monday to authorize the city to enter into another host community agreement with RVA Entertainment Holdings LLC; the group behind the Urban ONE plan.
I hopped on my bike and went out to get an update the signs the city started installing in March at 55 “high incident locations”- the results were awful.

Here’s how much of Metro Richmond you can reach from downtown within 30 minutes driving a car versus riding the bus. 🚘🚏🚍 When it comes to public transit, more funding means more freedom.
@yitgordon@Ride_BT the most beautiful bus is the one that shows up most frequently (bonus for zero emissions). that being said WMATA 2-tone swoop is decent but not as cool as the retro styles
“After jumping more than 5% in 2020, rents have climbed an additional 11% so far in 2021. Restrictive zoning laws limiting where new apartments can rise have slowed progress to adding 1,000 new affordable units each year.” 🏗🏢 @__MarkRobinson
