Rain fences are designed to store rainwater, reducing pressure on drainage systems during heavy downpours and preserving water for gardens during dry spells. This innovative approach is gaining attention in neighborhoods like Veldhoven, where residents are eager to learn about the costs and benefits of such installations.

"This project is symbolic of what we've done over the last 12 years, reshaping the streets and the city," Christophe Najovski, the city's deputy mayor in charge of green spaces, stated during the opening ceremony.

Cyclist Jake Missen branded the redesigned stretch of Bedford Avenue 'an absolute warzone,' emphasizing the dangers cyclists now face as they navigate between parked cars and fast-moving traffic.

"Car-Free Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet-and that our streets play a critical role in our fight against climate change," said NYC DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn in an official statement.

Missouri is the most populous state without a statewide active transportation plan, despite nearly one-third of its residents lacking a driver's license and alarming fatality rates among vulnerable road users.

Hundreds of preventable fatalities and more than 13 million metric tons of climate pollution would be avoided by 2045 if Congress passed legislation that answered advocates' long- time demand to require state DOTs to set declining annual fatality targets - and reallocate highway money to safety projects if they don't meet those goals, according to a new analysis from Evergreen Action.

"Cyclists shouldn't be left on red," Stevenson wrote in an article for news website MyLondon. The traffic light system that prioritises buses contains sensors, so they know when buses are approaching. They can stay green for longer when a bus is approaching, or switch from red to green more quickly if a bus is waiting. "These lights should also allow cyclists to pass through without waiting," Stevenson said.
