"When DOT goes underfunded and understaffed, intersections remain deadly, bike lanes don’t get built, and bus lanes don’t get painted. It’s dangerous for everyone, in every neighborhood, from all walks of life." — our Executive Director, @bfurnas.bsky.social, testifying at the City Council today

DOT Update Regarding the Reinstallation of speed humps on Minnieford Avenue: “All speed humps will be re-installed where they were originally. Another unit installs the speed humps and they get to locations a couple weeks after they’re paved.” We will keep you updated as we hear more.
