The US DOT is on an all-out campaign to defund city-designed projects that prioritize pedestrians and bikers.

To explain why it was cancelling a San Diego project, the US DOT complained that it “appears to reduce lane capacity and [has] a road diet that is hostile to motor vehicles."

Love the new C51 route from the @wmata.com better bus network. It's a game changer having a direct route from home to Union Station!

So incredibly lucky that I got to see Oasis twice this year. First in Manchester, then today stateside in New Jersey.

Apparently the US has all the money in the world to terrorize the residents of its cities but, in the name of fiscal conservatism, must massively cut support for low income people.

To say the nation’s priorities are completely out of whack is a radical understatement
