Pedestrian traffic fatalities are on the rise in NYS, with almost 1000 people killed annually in PREVENTABLE traffic crashes❌❌ Advancing #completestreets would save lives by expanding sidewalks, bike lanes, curb ramps, crosswalks & other people-oriented elements 👏 Transportation Alternatives


The Columbus Ave. center-running bus lane in City of Boston is an exciting example of how transit priority can ease congestion, reduce air pollution, and move people faster & more reliably! People-oriented streets move cities toward their climate and equity goals #UrbanOctober




This is Flatbush Ave this Sunday. The business are open, the parking meters are off. The five cars parked get to stay all day and the shoppers and deliveries are circling or double parking, blocking the B41 bus. Sunday parking meters would be so much better! Rita Joseph


The bill to create the citywide greenway plan passed the NYC Council today! So much thanks to NYC Council Member Carlina Rivera, CMSelvenaBrooksPowers, Mercedes Narcisse, and the full Council, and everyone in the #greenways4NYC Coalition for leading the way!

Hats off to 🚇 Riders Alliance for spearheading today's pro-#congestionpricing rally in Washington Heights. My first time hearing/seeing Zohran Kwame Mamdani (NYS Assembly District 36, NW Queens) & Shawn Garcia (Transportation Alternatives Bronx/uptown organizer) in action, and OMG.



Happy and humbled to become the new executive director at Parks & Trails NY. My focus is to bring more park, more nature to more people throughout New York State.

Thank you NY State Parks Commissioner Erik Kulleseid for inspiring our advocates this morning as we set off to share stories with our legislators about the many benefits that #ParksProvide. We're ready for a great #NYPAD2023 🌳 Open Space Institute



2016 time machine to celebrate #ta50 and the @transalt campaign for the 14th Street PeopleWay! With L train shutdown looming volunteers/staff proposed removing cars leaving only people, transit & #bikenyc! From car chaos to 14th St NYC DOT MTA Busway! Paul Steely White Union Square, NYC


Just an insane shot of #daylighting I took last month while exploring Kingston, NY w/Paul Steely White . They really got great stuff going on between riding trails, #bikenyc lanes, art & traffic calming going on. A future Streetfilm!
