If you drive to work 5Xs a week
& switch to another mode 1X a week,
you’d reduce your contribution to congestion by 20%. You’re not STUCK in traffic: #youaretraffic xitter.cf/austinmobility/status/…
About 73% of Austinites drive alone to work everyday. If we removed just 4% of cars from roadways, congestion would decrease by as much as 30%. Learn about transportation demand management at AustinTexas.gov/TDM.

Newly released study shows that separated bike lanes reduce maximum car speeds by 28%, average speeds for turning cars by 21%, and 8% for cars going straight.
If cities want to reduce speeding, they should install separated/protected bike lanes—it’ll also get more people biking!

It's a lot easier to rip out bus "infrastructure" than it is to take out train tracks, which is why the smarter anti-transit people concern-troll your rail projects and claim they just want rapid buses and aren't against transit in general of course.
