Rainy morning in Pawtuxet Village, Cranston, RI 🌧️

And just like that, another urbanism conference that you had hopes of attending has come and gone… 🥲 Ngl, the city’s kinda quiet without all the urbanists walking around. My face would beam with joy as I overhear convos about the city’s walkability & transit infrastructure 🥹

In a world where RIPTA is fully funded and doesn't have a budget deficit, we could see more routes from the Transit Master Plan get implemented! Reason #1000 why Park Ave. in Cranston, RI needs RIPTA service: No need to ride the bus back into Providence and transfer 🥹🙏🏽🚌

A new report dives into the false “efficiency” of cutting RIPTA bus service. And, reader, the results are exactly what you were expecting.

Transit is essential! Fund transit! Save RIPTA!!

This is the man the NYT editorial board thinks you should vote for to improve public safety

Every time I tell a non-Rhode Islander about the Gaspee affair, they’re shocked they never learned about it in U.S. History class. Throwing a bunch of tea in Boston Harbor? That’s cute. Rhode Islanders burned a fucking British tax ship!

Look, another RIPTA efficiency study. routedinplace.info/2025/06/13/c...

Cool 🚊🚎

Caregivers, your compassion makes the world gentler every day. Thank you for all you do. Don’t forget to care for yourself too—rest, recharge, and let kindness return to you. You are deeply appreciated. #Caregivers #Caregiving

My dad once told me that between 1980 and 1983, he was a train dispatcher for Vietnam Railways! He facilitated the arrival and departure of passenger and freight trains at Nha Trang, Qui Nhơn, and Diêu Trì Stations!! 🥰❤️💛🚆

Oof it’s going to be super hot next Monday and Tuesday in Providence! 100 degrees!! 🥵

No Kings in Providence!

I was a fellow at a pedestrian advocacy organization called Los Angeles Walks! Their tagline is “Everyone walks in LA!” 🌴🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♂️ They’re doing amazing work fighting for safer streets for pedestrians across LA! LosAngelesWalks.org

Trump’s provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians

Los Angeles. Just wow.

So happy to see all the New Urbanists enjoying PVD! Grateful to call it home 🥹🏙️⚓️

Today's the last day of @cnunewurbanism.bsky.social #CNU33!! Hope the attendees enjoyed their time in New England, especially here in Providence!! 🏙️⚓️🌊

Shrodinger' bike in #Providence #RhodeIsland while at #CNU33 What is that bump: Half raised crosswalk to the mid island or speed bump for bike lane? No bus stop. The sad part is that the street will be restriped soon to make way for a new traffic lane. @cnunewurbanism.bsky.social #mobility

The Legislature’s two-party budget agreement is a promising step toward protecting essential transit funding. In the days ahead, the California Transit Association and its partners will continue working to ensure this progress is reflected in the final budget approved by Governor Newsom. 1/2
