We agree - the Charlottesville area needs much better infrastructure for biking! cvillerightnow.com/news/208802-...

Local cyclists call for increased bike safety in Charlottesville-Albemarle area - Cville Right Now

Very helpful 🧵 about speed cameras

David Zipper@davidzipper.bsky.social · 2d ago

Since everyone’s arguing about speed cameras, let’s keep a couple facts in mind: 1) Research show that camera enforcement is much more popular than the media implies – in suburbs as well as cities. Lesson: Don’t conflate a few angry car owners with “public opinion.” (cont'd)

This coming Wednesday, August 19.

We support fully funding inclusionary zoning in Charlottesville and Albemarle County because it will help produce more income restricted and market rate homes. Left unfunded, we will get fewer of both types of housing and housing costs will rise.

M. Nolan Gray 🥑@mnolangray.bsky.social · 6d ago

The evidence is by now clear and policymakers/planners are slowly starting to respond to it: unfunded inclusionary zoning programs ultimately hurt housing production and affordability. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/08/13/b...

Here’s a great Q&A for people interested in getting an e-bike by UVA Data Science Professor @stephenturner.us stephenturner.us/p/ebike

E-bikes

Common questions I get about e-bikes and a few responses.

We think it’s a big deal! Melbourne goes by Charlottesville High School and this is a step towards making it safer for students, staff, and community members as they go to and fro.

Ben Chambers@bench.bsky.social · 6d ago

I don’t know whether I want anyone to make a big deal over the speed limit on Melbourne Rd being dropped to 25 mph finally or maybe I should just let it happen and see how people naturally respond to new signage

We look forward to see you later today!

Thanks to @mmonaco.bsky.social for live posting about the Eastern Ave meeting!

"Michael Monaco"@mmonaco.bsky.social · last wk.

Now seated for the Eastern Ave presentation/meeting at the Meadows. Very crowded already! Right now people are just circulating looking at maps - presentations begin at 6.

No more bike lanes protected by “paint” on heavily traveled roads. It’s a lazy design.

Livable Cville@livablecville.bsky.social · last wk.

If you’re interested in the future of Crozet, consider attending the meeting this evening on Eastern Ave. We definitely want to see protected bike infrastructure as part of the design. Meeting is from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the conference room in the Meadows Community Center, 5735 Meadows Drive.

Paint is not protection. Especially on busy or curvy streets

You want safer streets for everyone, right?

Brent Toderian@brenttoderian.bsky.social · last wk.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

One reason we believe Virginia in general and Charlottesville/Albemarle in particular should build a lot more housing is that Virginia is the only southern state with a shade of green in this map. We should be a place where LGBTQ+ people are safe AND have access to quality, affordable housing.

Having an in person international or national event in America? Are you weighing factors like lodging and transport? Cool stuff to do? Here's a map to consider if any of your attendees may possibly, even remotely be LGBTQIA. And you care about them.

E-bikes change lives!

Portland Mercury@portlandmercury.com · 2w ago

The Mercury spoke with several people who purchased electric bikes through Portland Clean Energy Fund's new rebate program. While the recipients’ backgrounds and transportation habits varied, everyone echoed the same general sentiment: e-bikes are game-changing.

i've been saying this for a decade we picked up our e-cargo bike in 2021, and it was a literal game changer for me. it flattened the city. allowed me to get places without being drenched in sweat. and it's almost always faster than the bus. and sometimes even driving.

There's been lots of speculation about the city's plans for the The Free Bridge and 0 E. High Street encampments. I'm looking forward to our upcoming webinar to learn more from people directly working on solutions
