Continuing Anne Hidalgo's mission in transforming Paris (pop; 11m+) into a livable city.
Meanwhile in Red Bank NJ a bike rack (pop; 12k) is quite an achievement... Enough to get a Complete Streets Award anyway.

Snow Total for NJ overnight Sat-Sun
The streets have been brined for church tomorrow...
Looks like Red Bank NJ is in for the first snow of the season... No worries, the streets have been brined for church tomorrow. #thecaristhestar 🌟
Sidewalks are my problem. However, there is the chance for a bit of sneckdowning...

#Baraka was great btw. The only disconcerting thing was his support from the town's grandees and their fanboys and -girls... They probably just weren't listening, as usual.

Red Bank NJ "Weather Alert"
A town's priorities become as clear as the spaces they choose to maintain in the winter
Red Bank NJ: Tuck your cars up in your driveway... We'll be clearing the snow anyway... Tomorrow's Saturday...

My town? "Yeah! But that's Europe..."
Facts don't apply in #RedBankNJ, and there's always an excuse for why #bikeped streets are an impossible whim.

In image showing clear roads and snowy sidewalk. The legend says: "A town's priorities become as clear as the spaces they choose to maintain in the winter."
My taxes pay for snow clearance on the streets 24/7...
Priorities? It's good to know I pay for streets to be ploughed through the night, but sidewalks? They're for me to shovel and be fined if I don't...
Maybe the town should clear the sidewalks and leave the streets for the community to clear up.

This is what happens when you take an image of the town from Google Earth🌎 and pick out all the blacktop in red... It's an indication of how much of this town is given over to the mighty car⭐

I posted a short #bikecam vid of a trip south on #redbanknj finest #bikeped infrastructure. I also posted second-by-second observations of the crap that goes on in three minutes even on a quiet Sunday afternoon.
This is in a town where, of course, #thecaristhestar 🌟

Will the #redbanknj community be given the choice? Unlikely. The municipality is in the pockets of developers. #cuttheparkingrequirement

Most traffic engineers who aren't paid as "experts" by speculators and developers know how cities and communities should be designed. The problem is political.

Serious about the environment? Well, we are but is the boro' council? And with the state also winding back progressive legislation on eVs and eBikes what do councillors think? Do they do anything except mutely toe the Ready! line?

Instead of obsessing on punitively regulating eBikes, #VinGopal should make a start on grossly oversize cars and trucks...
