No, this was pre-show. Appears to be very undersold

We take a few minutes to introduce ourselves to new member, Eric Hoke, who is attending his first meeting as a member of the VZAC!

It's also Kim Unertl's first official meeting, though she's been with us for the past few meetings.

It's Vision Zero Advisory Committee meeting night!

Follow along on this thread for highlights.

An agenda was not sent out ahead of time and the agenda presented by NDOT staff doesn't match our chair's agenda that he submitted two weeks ago, so who knows what we'll talk about this time!

Look at my Instagram story for their commute length. It’s 25 minutes with walking included.

Choosing the wrong way to move reflects poorly on you.
Your decision to drive, when viable transit exists, is either purely illogical or a clear expression of classism and racism.

If you live less than a football field from a frequent bus route that runs every ten minutes, BRT isn’t going to change anything.
You could be commuting on that route today(on your phone, on your computer, getting to know your city better) instead of wasting your life in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

Why doesn’t the damn airport subsidize bus service? @freddieoconnell.bsky.social @angienashville.bsky.social

Once you get a the way in the back, you’re met with a basic bench and WeGo sign. No way to know when the bus is coming unless you’re a nerd like me with the transit app. No explanation of the cost or how tap to pay is available. I helped answer those ?s

Can we get @minakimes.bsky.social to coach? But fr if Borgonzi flames out, would be cool for her to try and be over personnel.

I am quickly becoming the Scene’s Tyler Childers correspondent. Here I am with some thoughts on his weekend shows at Geodis, plus country music mythmaking, maybe also the divine a little bit

The New Country Church of Tyler Childers

The tour behind ‘Snipe Hunter’ brought fans together on several levels at Geodis Park.

Feel like the Prep Clinic sponsoring this means the show has an unfair bias in support of YIMBYs.

Coming up this week on This is Nashville.

Nashville has a well-documented housing shortage, with one study showing a 90,000 shortfall in homes by 2035.

But Nashville also has a shortage of commercial space, leading to ever higher commercial rents & the death of small businesses in booming neighborhoods.

On the 19 and really took notice of Meharry’s S.S. Kresge Learning Resource Center for the first time. Really like it. I didn’t realize it was a library until we passed Fisk’s John Hope and Aurelia Elizabeth Franklin Library, which it’s interesting as well, so I had to look both up.

Always nice to see what’s been done in Finland.

Every intersection in Germantown should be day lit with bike parking. Kill two birds with one stone. Prevent drivers from parking illegally and provide sorely needed bike parking.

Authorities determined that the house failed to look left, right, and left again which led to the collision
