A diverse group of children and parents walk down the sidewalk in their Halloween costumes.
Tonight is Halloween.
Please be especially alert & take extra time to look for kids at intersections, medians & on curbs.
Remember children move in unpredictable ways.
Reduce distractions inside your car & concentrate on the road and your surroundings.

Ronda, the roundabout shaped, purple Build The Era mascot, is holding a sign which reads “Pedestrian crossings are shorter, across only one direction of traffic, & automatically create refuge with splitter islands which provides easier crossings for those with mobility restrictions.”
How is your #NationalRoundaboutWeek going? Ronda is having a great time spreading all the reason why roundabouts rock. Why do you love them? Tell us in the comments!

Ronda is heading to Texas to help folks in the City of Kyle with an education campaign about their roundabouts!
Hear from Kyle's mayor, Travis Mitchell, on why Kyle chose to be a roundabouts-first community: youtu.be/j-Na_pbg59U

Want Safer Streets? Cover Them in Art
With traffic deaths rising in the US, some cities are turning crosswalks and intersections into eye-catching murals — with life-saving results.
More great examples and studies here:

Ronda is grateful to those who have donated & hopes that more of you could pitch in to help Ronda (& Jonathan) speak at the International Conference on Roundabouts on how cities like Rockford & Akron are using our book to foster education about roundabouts.
We have an incredible opportunity to present Ronda & her book to an international audience of transportation professionals & educators - but we need a bit of financial help.

Trump abruptly let the backbone of American weather data shut down yesterday.
There are consequences for farmers, industries, water managers, state climatologists, and even schools. Deep dive for @notusreports.bsky.social 👇
NOAA just announced a long list of datasets that are going away🧪⚒️🌊: www.nesdis.noaa.gov/about/docume...

Yes. I have tried to argue over and over that Trump/Vance's large scale destruction of clean energy manufacturing jobs (the manufacturing jobs of the future!) should be relevant to discussions of their stated goal of reinvigorating US manufacturing. No one listens

Any discussion of why the U.S. doesn’t have high-speed rail should include at least *a mention* of the myriad ways that Republicans have blocked it:

Some stats from 100 days in on congestion pricing:
- Complaints about car-honking are down 70%
- The Holland Tunnel has 65% fewer delays at rush hour; time to get thru it is down 48%
- 6 million fewer cars
- Half as many traffic-related injuries
- 1.5 million more visitors to BIDs year over year
This is your warning: Trump's tariffs are going to negatively impact supply chains just like Covid and prices are going to rise.
President Biden's team spent years repairing supply chains to fix inflation.
Trump is smashing all of that to smithereens in under 100 days.
Here's Every Single EV About To Get Hit With Tariffs

Disabled people are less likely to drive and more likely to depend on public transit. Making transit better and safer is an access issue, not a liberal mayor one lol.
