E-bikes and other micromobility devices are all over the place. But what's allowed on the road? How are we determining what can and can't be on our streets.
RPA's latest Lab post is a guide to micromobility regulations across the region: rpa.org/news/lab/micromobili…
The most fun is always at the step and repeat! 💃 📸

Thanks to funds from congestion pricing, we've begun construction on accessibility upgrades at the 42 St-Bryant Park/5 Av station complex!
New elevators, platforms upgrades, an accessible passageway between 42 St-Bryant Park (B/D/F/M) and 5 Av station (7), and more will benefit over 100,000 daily riders.
Today's the day! We're so excited to celebrate the best of our region tonight at Cipriani 25 Broadway for Celebrate the Tri-State.
A very special thank you to our event sponsors as we prepare for this evening's events!

In addition to better commutes and cleaner air, we're seeing real, concrete accessibility improvements in NYC thanks to congestion pricing.
Lots to celebrate with this announcement!
Right here at the Bryant Park station, the @MTA is building the first elevator funded by congestion pricing.
Business is up, traffic is down.
Now we’re putting billions to work on transit upgrades that will improve the rides of millions.
We're on the cusp of finally (!!!) having an upgraded Portal Bridge!
Once the cutover is complete, we'll see more reliable service for NJ commuters.

The Portal Bridge is part of the Gateway Program — it's one of 11 projects that'll make service along the Northeast Corridor better for all of us.

Commuter tax benefits aren't just a nice perk — they're keeping up to 11K cars off the road in Manhattan's Central Business District every day.
Charles Komanoff and RPA's @weinbergerurban spoke to @StreetsblogNYS about their findings:

We live in an increasingly electrified society. To power it, we need more transmission capacity.
That's why Long Island needs Propel NY — more transmission for more clean, reliable energy.
