I'm delighted to see what Andy Byford said about upcoming book: "Plotch and Nelles hit the mark with this tour-de-force review of major infrastructure project delivery and the golden rule of effective coalitions..." See press.umich.edu/12009801/mob… or amazon.com/Mobilizing-Metrop…

Hey @NYTransitMuseum: You didn't want to sell my book "Last Subway" because it was "too political". That was a euphemism for an accurate portrayal of Gov. Andrew Cuomo. But, the coast is clear. You can put it on your shelves, now. #nypolitics #subway

2nd Avenue. 9am. We need wider #bikenyc/wheeled-devices lanes. I was late for a meeting but had to grab a shot of this. I couldn't believe the numbers out there! @NYCMayor @NYC_DOT @OpenPlans @TransAlt @bikenewyork @MarkLevineNYC

This protected bike lane, under construction, will connect Jersey City to Observer Highway and is an important part of both cities’ Vision Zero plans. Thanks to @StevenFulop @BikeHoboken @bikejc & others for partnering with Hoboken on it. Looking forward to its completion!
Moving forward - Green endurablend paint on Marin Boulevard. This is the new bike lane that connects into Hoboken. Columbus completion on deck

Lots of insight on development of climate proof communities, from the positive example setting and physical adaptation interventions to the not so positive catering to the well-to-do’s. #ClimateAction #ClimateJustice #Equity4Life #HurricaneSandy

Build it and they will ride, (historic) Belgian edition. The 1933 Sint Anna tunnel in #Antwerp allows pedestrians and cyclists to cross *under* a river as wide as the Hudson.

Aerial photos looking south over Manhattan. 1931 Vs. 2018 The street layout defines the path dependency of an urban transport system. In the case of NYC it laid the foundation for a compact & connected city with great public transport, walking & cycling opportunities🚲🚶‍♂️🚇👇

A flagship climate resilience program and one of the best national examples showing importance of protecting critical assets - #BayPark sewage treatment plant. Check out the video below! #ClimateAction #HurricaneSandy #NewYork @ArcadisGlobal @Arcadis_NA
In 2012, #HurricaneSandy flooded Bay Park, NY. The wastewater facility was overwhelmed; contaminated water inundated the neighborhood. Arcadis overhauled the facility into a resilient system and began reclamation in the local bay. #IQoL #resilience bit.ly/3g5qpwW
