Organized many of the marches for congestion pricing in NYC. Started the daylighting movement, run MicromobilityNYC, and advised Zohran from day 1 of his campaign. We're building a movement here

There was a time not too long ago when DOT could barely do ANYTHING with concrete. This is exactly what I want my tax dollars going towards...

72nd Street should be fixed. Instead it is in limbo thanks to the same conservative forces trying to fight urbanism everywhere.

I'm tired of beating around the bush. A lot of the people that choose to drive around NYC need to make better choices and the city needs to make them.

Someone like Sam Schwartz should really know better. This is an incredibly stupid thing to say. Ebikes and escooters are the BEST tools we have for improving safety, by actually enticing people on to micromobility. To say nothing of the environmental benefits of light electric vehicles.

The Thompson Ave Bridge is getting a much needed bike lane, but there is an even more important connection that needs to be made!

The chaos in midtown thanks to Hochul not increasing the congestion pricing charge during UN week is really something to behold

I have nothing new to add really, just shocked we aren't building Open Streets all over our cities. This is still the only one for miles by me. (31st Ave in Astoria.) It's absurd.

Completely unsurprising to anyone who rides a bike or motorcycle or something that puts your head near a lot of drivers windows. They're all on the phone all the time.

This is a wild statistic (from IIHS, a very reputable research org): "Cellphone use prior to crashes is undercounted in police reports by a factor of at least 7."

I'm still just utterly baffled at the city's lack of vision on the Grand Central Viaduct. This could be one of the best pedestrianized spaces in the entire world

New report shows congestion pricing needs to be strengthened with more zones and higher tolls to deter more vehicles, as air quality wasn't effected by Hochul's watered down program

It's really crazy how many people will ride micromobility, run, or walk on NYC streets when they don't have to be afraid of cars
