Three cheers to Flagstaff for––as of a few minutes ago––becoming the first city in Arizona (and maybe the entire southwest?) to legalize fourplexes on every residential lot citywide.
And congrats to Flagstaff for Affordable Housing & @azneighborhood.bsky.social for leading the charge!

My citizen petition asks for hi-vis crosswalks citywide. But @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social claims they don't have the budget. They actually do - T2050 funding - an annual multi million $$ budget dedicated to transportation & pedestrian safety.

The footage is spot on to the daily chaos of the Phoenix reverse lanes. And the city thinks digital signs will fix the problem 🙄
How about no highway style streets in urban cores?!
Where is the recent suicide lanes story?
For decades, the reversible lanes on 7th Avenue and 7th Street have been a daily frustration for drivers, a danger to pedestrians and cyclists, and a barrier to local businesses.

NASA does a disservice here by excluding the acres and acres of non-road pavement that truly exacerbate this problem — surface parking lots. Zoom into the hottest parts of this map and you’ll see plenty of parking.
We’re probably not gonna get rid of roads, but we can stop mandating parking lots.
BIG UPDATE! Stay Tuned for Important Info

“…beyond intentional attacks, drivers in cars, SUVs and trucks threaten the safety of our public spaces everyday but we treat the damage they do like the weather: something inevitable that just happens.”
All of Europe my friend. USA is car necessity due to the usual two factors: money and racism.
I think this is the first time I've lived walking distance from a grocery store and I'm out of my mind about it. I'll walk there several times a day. Oh did I forget to grab something? No big deal I'll simply Walk To The Store
Wow! A city council member with a petition for street safety! Unheard of! Love it! ❤️
A must read by @nrrphx.bsky.social @urbanphxproject.bsky.social on our outdated & dangerous rush hour “suicide lanes” on the 7’s - www.urbanphoenixproject.org/blog/end-rev...

A bus stop at Washington and Rural lays bent from damage after being struck by a driver
I love cars man great stuff out here
Oh man, thank you so much for this. I needed it. I cracked up so hard this morning.
MUST READ: Exclusionary zoning practices continue to keep Phoenix racially segregated. This is a CHOICE made by policymakers.
“The question is: Will we allow history to keep repeating itself, or will we demand justice for the communities that continue to pay the price for Phoenix’s progress?”

I'm attending May Day Strong's event, “Arizona May Day Rally” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/mayday/event...
If you live in Phoenix I highly recommend signing this petition. The suicide lanes are extremely confusing to use and inherently dangerous. chng.it/KRgvHhCJ7N
Ugh I'm always forgetting to ad mine
@nerd4cities.bsky.social has a great video on the Phoenix "Suicide Lanes" youtu.be/57AQhVdq-9g?...
