The good people that is @kelseyhuse.com made this letter writing campaign to improve Union. Let’s make it so a TDOT official can’t say it’s too difficult to improve Union. actionnetwork.org/letters/what...

Union Ave in Memphis

Every big paper has run a story like this in recent years. Why nothing changes: “The state can’t add more crosswalks, reduce the number of lanes or lower the speed limit on Union Avenue, all of which would take time and money,“ said the state DOT, which owns the road. 🔓: www.wsj.com/us-news/the-...

A beloved community member was arrested last week for "obstructing traffic" despite selling drinks in the same spot for years. He's since been gifted a car. Read more in my newsletter: blog.memphisurbanism.com/water-mane-s...

If you’re in Memphis, you’ve probably heard about the paid parking after 6pm at Crosstown. Sign my petition to urge our city leaders to invest in non-car transportation methods so we don’t have to drive to Crosstown! actionnetwork.org/petitions/mo...

It’s VERY interesting to rediscover some of my important interviews during the pandemic, like this one in @wired.com: “Cities should create many pedestrian-focused zones, argues city planner Brent Toderian, so all residents have one nearby. Those traffic-free streets should be “ordinary, non-sexy.”

The US has manufactured its dependence on oil, bulldozed entire communities for it, and now the President is illegally invading Venezuela for oil.

TODAY is publication day for my first book! If You Want to Win, You’ve Got to Fight: A Guide To Effective Transportation Advocacy is a practical guide for people who want to make #transit, #bike, and street safety changes in their community Check it out at islandpress.org/books/if-you...

After the law went into effect, we find that it produced a major boost in spending on streets/highway-related investment, adjusted for inflation. But spending on non-streets/highway investment, like rail transit, flatlined. States & cities *reduced* spending on rail transit after the law passed.

I really thought Boring Company was gonna try to do business in Memphis (maybe they still are) , because: 1. We already have a tunnel from the airport 2. Saw one of their employees on bumble one time, meaning they are physically here. 3. XAI is here already Nashville is a bigger market tho ig

What’s the best way to spend $1 billion for transportation? Our latest report shows the positive impacts of every $1 billion shifted from highways to transit and identifies key policy levers to shift transportation investments away from highway spending. climateandcommunity.org/research/let...

I would like to follow more economists / academics whose focus is on alternatives to growth. Any recs?

I REGRET WATCHING THE SEASON FINALE OF “THE CURSE” I AM NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Guy in the truck: “I’m sorry” Me carrying my bike around: “you’re not sorry, you’re just sorry you got caught!!!” (Huge smile and laughing) Trying out saying what I mean but in a super nice tone just to confuse ppl.

I have exhausted my Memphis dating options and now my strategy is to slide into the DMs of guys who live in Chicago and Nashville and convince them to move here.

I forgot to post this here. Anyway, please pay attention to xAI (and polluters in general) in Memphis. We deserve clean air. South Memphis ESPECIALLY deserves clean air - they’ve been dealing with polluters, cancer, asthma, for decades. (Shelby Co Health Dept public hearing a few months ago)

I’ve returned from Sicily back to Memphis. I was on a 12-day city planning research project in San Berillo. There are many similarities between that neighborhood and Memphis. One thing that keeps jumping out to me: we must solve poverty. And city planners cannot solve this alone.

Ok I’m back on here but my timeline is really depressing and idk what to do about it Not trying to ignore reality but need to prioritize my mental health & what’s in my control locally
