Harris Teeter dominates the Raleigh market, right? Not so fast. They have 0(!) stores within the market East of US-1. East of US 1 also happens to be where most of Raleigh’s Black and Hispanic populations live.

Roadway fatalities and serious injuries are at a generational high. We can do better—and USDOT's new Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grants can help. Read our post on the key aspects of SS4A and what you can be doing right now to prepare to apply. tooledesign.com/insights/202…
"It starts with a discussion about values. What's important to people?" Hear Toole Design's @IanLockwoodPE on the @StreetsMN podcast breaking down the different types of highway removal, including spur removal, section removal, relocation, and prevention. streets.mn/2022/06/15/urban-…

Progress isn’t always about getting better. Sometimes it’s about bouncing back. Success is not only the peaks you reach—it’s the valleys you conquer. Every experience of enduring adversity and overcoming obstacles is a meaningful accomplishment.   Resilience is a form of growth.

We spend too much time trying to reach other people's standards, and too little time defining our own. It's better to disappoint another person than to lead a life that disappoints you. Success is not about meeting someone else's expectations. It's about living up to yours.

In general, Dutch planners identify six categories of cyclist; people that whilst riding their bicycle have different needs and wants. These groups all need to be thought about individually for road safety, as they have different requirements and wishes. safercycling.roadsafetyngos.…

Bikeways in so many contexts! This 🧵
Went into the office yesterday 🚲 and decided to take a photo at every infrastructure change . We start off on a rural access road across the polder. Single track with passing places, 60kph limit although I can only do 25.

My 5 yr old daughter asked why we have bike in the “really skinny part of the street” yesterday on our trip ice cream… Me: I ask myself that question LITERALLY everyday. Her: You should fix that dad!

Together with @MMDC901 we're conducting pedestrian and bicycle counts along Madison Ave. in the Medical District over the next month or so. If you're passing through, get counted! 📷 MMDC

We think @SmartGrowthUSA puts it perfectly in their new video: "The goal of street design should be to make dangerous behavior difficult and safe behavior easy." youtube.com/watch?v=Ii4fXlCN…
