Kudos to #PHL airport and Tinicum Township for building this sidepath along the realigned Tinicum Island Rd.

If the NJ Democratic Prinary had ranked choice voting 1. Fulop 2. Baraka 3. Sherrill 4. Spiller

Waking up to a horror show on social media. It's a good day to log off and practice self care.

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

The Christian to Crescent segment of the Schuyllkill River Trail is absolutely stunning. #[email protected]

Jitneys from Eastern PA to Washington Heights often via Paterson. Service is demand driven but usually every 2 hours. www.google.com/mymaps/viewe...

Thank You @andykimnj.bsky.social for ending "the line."

Victim identified as Jeff Ishibashi, resident of Lansdowne. Likely biking to his job as a cancer researcher at Penn

Completely senseless death in West Philly yesterday as a person riding a bike gets run over and dragged by a turning truck. This was at 58th & Baltimore Ave, the intersection of multiple streets on our High Injury Network. 1/

Ras Baraka is about to surge ahead in the Governor's race.

This is exactly why the victim was killed yesterday. It's the same scenario that happened to Emily Fredricks. Federal indifference didn't start with Trump 2.0. www.propublica.org/article/dot-...

We just learned that a cyclist was hit and killed by the driver of Mack truck on 58th and Baltimore Ave. this morning. We are still trying to get more information but we are devastated for the victim's family. This is the second bicyclists fatality in Philly this year. 6abc.com/post/person-...

Villanova has 3 rail stations, but we don't know the Pope's stance on #FundingSepta

I’m seeing a lot of outrage about this story but honestly it’s preferable to the old way of doing this which was both disrespectful of the deceased and traumatising for the puppeteer

Whoever thought that the #backtothefuture shoelaces would just be a bungee cord.

NJ needs rank choice voting. Fulop, Baraka and maybe Spiller could split the progressive vote and Sherrill would win with a small plurality.

In Newark, where Mayor Ras Baraka asked to enter a newly reopened ICE detention facility. Delaney Hall operators did not let the mayor into the facility. Newark is currently suing the operator of the facility for alleged permitting and inspections violations

Canada, where people can still have nice things.

Exactly! Make this type of traffic violence impossible in a heavily pedestrianized area like downtown Newark.

The #NJBikeWalkRide Forum begins.

How Far do your tax dollars for Transit go? After people complaining over and over that SEPTA was inefficient, I had to run the numbers of Ridership to Operating budgets and would you look at that. Not only is SEPTA good with money, but they are literally the best in the US

I live on NJ but I'm rooting for team Canada today. #elbowsup

Ban Cars!
