Crash right now in #CongressPark of @DenverPerfect10 in @CityofDenver maybe at 13th & Madison.
#VisionZeroAction, @MikeJohnstonCO & @DenCityCouncil!
Possible fatality on 13th at Milwaukee in #CongressPark of @DenverPerfect10 in @CityofDenver. They're in the distance before I realized...

Illegal parking at the MLK Memorial in #CityPark is creating a dangerous thoroughfare for bike & pedestrian visibility, @JolonClark. Please close this section to cars.

Leaving VM for the park ranger now.
The beg button for both the #E12thAveNBW & pedestrians looks to have been destroyed by a vehicle & relocated.
I'm requesting a @WorldBollard be installed in its place.

Prior to the vid, a middle school aged student biked past us on the sidewalk.
The vehicles in the distance felt like they were going well over 30mph closer to 45 maybe even 50mph.
@DenverDOTI, please add radar speed limit signs along E6thAve & @DenverPolice, please dispatch a photo radar enforcement unit to the area of 6th at Garfield.

anyone to take #VisionZeroAction seriously?

#VisionZeroAction would eliminate the need to fight for improvements to specific intersections.

Let's make a change for this intersection &...
Instead of pleading with leaders for one crosswalk, can we please ask those same leaders to change the criteria for crosswalks?
#VisionZeroAction
The mid-block 🚸 design in @CityofDenver is NOT ADA-Compliant b/c it doesn't get cleared of snow & ice in the Winter.
It's why they ALL need to be relocated to corners with curb-cuts & ramps, @DenverDOTI.

This is WHY I'm leading the DEMAND for #VisionZeroAction on my own without the DBL, DSP, or the DOTI Advisory Board.
I now have a meeting scheduled for later this week with two city council aides to discuss plans for a Vision Zero Draft.

For those interested in taking the next step & REQUIRING #VisionZeroAction by DOTI & DPR, a few of us will be meeting on Saturday, 12/16.
Working draft documents are here:

Others don't notice the issue b/c they likely don't walk or bike very much.
I blame the lack of connected sidewalks & bike infrastructure not installed by @DenverDOTI & @denverparksrec.

I participated in the #EastCentralAreaPlan as part of the #NeighborhoodPlanningInitiative.

Look at the Crash Data.
#VisionZeroAction
A very depressing Mother's Day for the Mothers of the 24 traffic related deaths in #Denver.

Example of why I think I'll get killed by a car on #ColoradoBlvd.
Bike & Ped Infrastructure is designed to put us in the #KillBox.
The sand & rock show the trajectory that a driver took in a vehicle that surely would have killed anyone waiting on that corner.

A scooter being ridden on the sidewalk did this...
E13thAve at Jackson St only a block from Teller Elementary School in #Denver.

& @MayorHancock!
Serious/Fatal crashes where a motorist has hit a pedestrian/scooter-rider/cyclist on Speer at Grant, Lincoln, & Broadway
Mar 25th: Lincoln
Mar 30th: Grant
April 1st: Broadway
We need #VisionZeroACTION if we are going to prevent any of this, @DenverDOTI & @MayorHancock.

#VisionZeroAction IS #ClimateAction!

Obvious to me that any bike or scooter rider would have been killed had they been traveling the route at the time of the crashes.
Precisely why I advocate for Neighborhood Bikeways that divert traffic off of the route that connect to protected routes.
#VisionZeroAction
The E 12th Ave #BikeDen D10 route everyone.
The only way for this to have happened would involve a motorist crossing the center line & then thru the bike lane.
Would have hit a cyclist head on had one been there at the time.
#VisionZeroAction
In #Denver, we had 57 traffic related killings in 2020.
2021 was even worse currently at 84 traffic related killings.

Which of our leaders will make Vision Zero a priority in 2022?
This is an older @Ford Bronco. Sort of picture what OJ was driving.
Why is this reinforcement of the front end of the vehicle legal on anything other than law enforcement?

#VisionZeroAction
Context Matters @DenverPerfect10 & these #LethalVehicles should have no business on our #Denver streets!
#BanDeathMachines
#VisionZeroAction
Context Matters & these oversized vehicles should not be permitted to park so close to intersections.
They completely block the Sight-Triangle.
#VisionZeroAction
Well shit!
A #BikeDen friend of mine was hit by a driver while on their bike.
I have no other details other than that they are sedated in the ICU. It's a waiting game.
