Product and data networking nerd. Care about making Seattle more walkable and safe to cycle. Thoughts my own. he/him
Would love to see the app modified to support realtime reporting for scenarios like this and blocked bike lanes. Could look into whether fines could bring in revenue for the city. Moving parking enforcement away from SPD would be a great development too.

For the first time in a while, I’m looking forward to being in Seattle in January ☔️

It was even worse without direct election of senators! Enjoying the first few chapters on the history of the senate in caro’s master of the senate.

Such a great city for transit nerds. Highly recommend the DDR museum.

That’s pretty good. Alternative might be SPD being the only law enforcement agency allowed to hit citizens with cars.

The first bullet point on their blog is that it would cause congestion for single occupant vehicles. Yes- obviously, and that is good…

We’re going to need a bigger barrier

Anything related to mandatory daylighting or required distances and markings to prevent parking near intersections?

And the runnels at the light rail stations that are too close to the hand rail…

Back in LA for the weekend too. Feels weird to be away from Seattle when the weather is great, and there’s a great new bike path to explore.

Hope you heal quickly! @bestsidecycling.com

Are you aware of anyone working on a mandatory intersection daylighting bill?

You might look at how the EPA (at least in the past) monitored petroleum refining in Texas.

Wow- y’all are fast. Thank you!
