Commuting home through the Silver Spring bus depot and made a quick pit stop for my 9th #TranspoBINGO square to see one of my all-time favorite transit art installations, showing a "future" where penguins have evolved to ride the metro 🐧 🚇 🎉

#transpobingo appreciation post for our connecting trails! Klingle Valley is one of my fave ways to end the work day & clear my head. Plus it’s accessible!

I haven’t had much luck getting transit systems to respond to email, so during last year’s #WeekWithoutDriving, I turned to digital storytelling. One of my favorite sections included some proposals to improve connectivity and equity. iris.siue.edu/weekwithoutd... #transpoBINGO #transpoBINGOstl

Tracking impact for @transpobingo.bsky.social. Big uptick in bus and rail use in winter while recovering from neck surgery. Metro was able to get me everywhere I needed to go when I couldn't bike. I don't own a car, but wasn't cleared to drive anyway. Metro maintained my mobility and independence.

For my 8th #TranspoBINGO square and my first bingo! I used my lunch break to walk a mile over to "new-to-me public space" Capitol View park in Wheaton. Pleasant park, but unfortunately I couldn't locate the advertised capitol view, maybe if I climb onto this chimney?

This video about the life of a public bench is lovely. #TranspoBINGO

I’m marking the “Let’s be Accessible” #TranspoBINGO square for the DDOT Urban Forestry benches I helped get for the Triangle Park at 4th/Cedar/Blair in Takoma. Look how nice it is to have a place to sit while traveling the neighborhood. A 🧵 on just how complicated it was to get back here.

#TranspoBINGO isn’t just online, we’re out in the world. Volunteers - friends and neighbors just like you - have been helping us spread the word by flyering and leaving boards in public places like libraries and rec centers. We always welcome support reaching more neighbors! Contact us for copies.

On my walk this morning submitted a DC 311 request to clean up my alley (gotta protect my bike’s tires) #TranspoBINGO

Now w/ giant bubbles!! The Littles Ride on 3/22 at 4pm will include a performance by Block Party Bubbles. Calling all 3-7 years old in #BikeDC on balance bikes, training wheels, tricycles and pedal bikes for a 1-mile ride on-street starting/ending at Lincoln Park. eventbrite.com/e/1118029108...

We had a great time near Four Mile Run last Saturday. Volunteers removed honeysuckle, edged the trail, picked up trash, and cleaned signs. Donate to help us keep tools in the hands of volunteers: buff.ly/3KU5lHl

Transpo’d via the L2 last night to support a local business. Check out black and white cookie dough at Dolcezza in Dupont! @transpobingo.bsky.social

I’ve been singing his praises on Bluesky, so it’s about time I share them where they make the most impact! For my “thank a transpo hero” square, I filled out a commendation for my favorite bus driver using Metro’s form. www.metrostlouis.org/customer-com...

Thanks Timothée Chalamet for inviting your favorite award winning volunteer trail group be your guest at the Oscars this year. We agree, yellow is the best color to wear to award ceremonies. 💛 ⭐

Del Ray was great, and after that I took a trip on "new-to-me travel mode" bus rapid transit (BRT) on Metroway' full line from Braddock Rd to Pentagon City Station, sweet ride 🚍 🎉 7th square #TranspoBINGO

Pop culture square for taking the S9 to an Oscar party cause transpo is for the stars #transpobingo ✨

Had a great time starting my #TranspoBINGO sheet yesterday with the Friends of the Mount Vernon Trail!

Back on my b̶u̶l̶l̶s̶h̶i̶t̶ bicycle! As usual on my meanders, it was a 3 park ride. (The constellation of parks varies widely! #STL has lots to choose from.) Today, I finally made my way over to Sublette Park, marking off a new-to-me public space. Bonus: yesterday’s e-bus #transpoBINGO #transpoBINGOstl

Today's #TranspoBingo square was done by bike again 😆. We took a ride up the Riverwalk and Trolley Trails. My pals are definitely Transportation celebrities, especially Monica, who showed me how sweet the car free life can be! I've now been car free for almost 1.5 years thanks to her good influence!

Checked out staging area for the accessible kayak launch that Four Mile Run Conservatory is opening in June. It's been an 8 year effort of fundraising, design and permitting. Looking forward to using it this summer.

I think this could also qualify for the #TranspoBINGO carry stuff Olympics square 🏅

Took metro over the Potomac to visit "new-to-me neighborhood" Del Ray in Alexandria for my 6th #TranspoBINGO square. Charming place, enjoying a tasty margarita on main street rn 🍹 🎉

@transpobingo.bsky.social's hottest future transpo spot is the Long Bridge expansion. It's got everything: 1. New train bridge 2. Increased Amtrak & VRE capacity 3. Dedicated bike/ped bridge 4. Connection to Mount Vernon Trail 5. Connection to Long Bridge Trail

Ebike curious? This party is for you! Try lots of different bikes from different shops, all in one place, meet your local bike community and learn about the bike life. Cargo bikes, family bikes & commuter. Free & open to all. See you there #bikedc and future #bikedc!

I figured it’s time to join Bluesky and what better time to start than #TranspoBingo Here’s a recap of the last few days. 🧵 In honor of the #Gr8Chase  this year bingo markers are #ALLCAPS Inspired. @transpobingo.bsky.social

Highlights of #TranspoBingo so far: 1) Explored a new-to-me neighborhood on a metro ride to Southern Ave, including a stop at one of DC’s original boundary stones!

An accordion bus 🚌, walking through Chalk Riot (a a #TranspoBINGO sponsor!) color the curb art 🎨, and ice skating ⛸️! I could mark a lot of TranspoBINGO squares but going with find futuristic transpo art - because streets being for people is the future and street art gets us there!
