It's 2023 and protected bike lanes *still* increase safety (crashes drop 40%) and the inclusivity of your city's bicycle facilities for riders of all ages and abilities. /reminder...for now.

We hope you’ll join us on Thursday, January 15, at the Actors’ Playhouse in Coral Gables for an evening with The War on Cars podcast in conversation with global urbanism experts! This conversation is ever-relevant in Miami, where life feels like it’s built around cars rather than people. Don’t miss out on hearing from the experts themselves on how we can free ourselves from car culture. 📅 Thursday, January 15 @ 6 PM 📍 Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theater, Coral Gables 📚 Books available for purchase and signing at the event. 🎟️ Get your tickets today! purchase.actorsplayhouse.org…. #waroncars #miamitransit #urbanism

THIS JUST IN: A #protectedbikelane network is being developed in @pinecrestfl, coordinated with the @Cycling_Embassy. A resident-led petition has since evolved, containing a lot of the background information about the network. See: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

.@KERR_MPD explains how a modal filter, even a temporary one, makes #BikeToSchoolDay more than a one-day event - it demonstrates how important #safestreets and #trafficcalming are for youth mobility. @miamidadetpo @MiamiPD @CGEPTA @BikeLeague @CoconutGroveBID @Damianpardo8

We rode today with over 150 #bikebus riders from the @CGEPTA for #NationalBikeMonth! We provided a pop-up bike lane to make sure every child and parent could ride in safety, supported by the amazing @KERR_MPD. Thank you @miamidadetpo w/@jesusfuentes80 for supporting.
