Monday's Headlines: Spotlight on ICE and Ice Edition - Streetsblog New York City

But the video actually offers no evidence of that at all. In fact, it shows a ladder company at the scene and hoses stretching towards the fire, just as it should be. The video does not show any delay or any lack of access to the block, though snow and parked cars certainly seem to be creating difficulties: Well, you know the old saying: a lie can travel all the way around the world before the truth even gets its boots on. And that's doubly-true nowadays when any random fool can see something on social media and be convinced that it's true.

Mamdani's First Week Was Very Good for Cyclists

The administration also announced it is working to finish Astoria's 31st Street bike lane, a project that a judge halted in part because Adams hadn't gotten the required certification from the FDNY and other agencies. "We are beginning the mandatory consultations and will issue the notices needed to restart the project, while also filing a notice of appeal of the court's decision," Flynn said in a statement.

An Olympian Task: Replicating Paris's Bike Boom in Los Angeles - Streetsblog USA

The story of the legacy mobility improvements was non-linear and required vision, tenacity, and coordinated implementation. Initial plans for Paris 2024 focused exclusively on bus- and rail-based public transportation. Just two years before the opening ceremony, existing bike routes to the venues were unmarked and dangerous. Local cycling advocacy groups urged Olympic organizers to integrate active transportation into their mobility plans, warning that public transit alone would not be able to handle the anticipated 15 million visitors.

Friday Video: Enter the Bike Labyrinth - Streetsblog USA

We're talking about the so-called "protected bike intersection," or as a few outraged drivers have memorably called it, an "anti-car labyrinth," a "borderline anti-human" street treatment, and an "eco-fascist" "acid trip" of roadway infrastructure. So we especially love how Oh the Urbanity breaks down not just why those reactions are wrong, but why bike intersections are "the number one type of bike infrastructure that most cities are lacking."
