WeiterlesenFull report on Julian and S Benbow while @len.griffin.77 was speaking up. @cityofgreensboro GDOT and the Planing Dept need to step up. How many people die while folks wait for your “plan”?
Weiterleseninfrastructure has more to do than just roads, sidewalks, bike lanes, etc. It also deals w/ how we prepare for climate change and the worsening droughts we are bound to experience. Greensboro is enacting stage one voluntary water conservation. @cityofgreensboro must increase infrastructure for harvesting water, ban data centers, and find ways to conserve water in the long term.
Weiterlesen🚲🚲two years of critical mass greensboro🚲🚲 last Friday of the month every month! 💫
Weiterlesentwo years of critical mass, beginning of fall🌕🌕🌕🌕 come next month for our Halloween ride 🎃
WeiterlesenJust a few weeks til our September Critical Mass Ride. This will be our third year! ❤️
WeiterlesenIf you’ve been around the cycling world in Greensboro, you’ve most likely met Nicole. Nicole was a bright, passionate, and loving force in our city. She will be dearly missed. Join her community and friends for a bike on September 13.

Weiterlesenthank you to the @pedestriandignity zine for including one of my very own submissions: mobility is connection // world beyond this one
WeiterlesenPaint isn’t infrastructure. Bike lanes aren’t turning lanes. @cityofgreensboro, how is this putting more people in danger? Including pedestrians, drivers, and bicyclists? #fixitgreensboro
WeiterlesenA few highlights from last nights city council meeting from many speakers including some that come to Critical Mass every month. We can fight for infrastructure that is for PEOPLE, not to make a few wealthy, not to destroy our city, but to build/grow/ and let it flourish 🌱
WeiterlesenPSA There is a City Council Meeting next MONDAY Aug. 3 at 5:30pm. Make sure to show out and sign up to speak. Tell city council we want infrastructure that supports people in this city, and not harm the land around us and contaminate our water. We just want some sidewalks 😩😩
WeiterlesenA few thoughts on Elm St closure by one individual. Given this is an account that advocates for pedestrian + bicycle + people friendly infrastructure, it made sense to engage with this. I do not have all of the answers, but I want to ask questions and make some statements from what *I* have seen and know about this city. Please comment your thoughts and engage with this!
Weiterlesen🛑🚶♂️🚶♂️🚲🚲The city is closing down Elm St for 90 days (permanent and weekend) and turning it into a no-car zone. This is a huge win for all of us in Greensboro. Let’s make sure to support this effort and go spend time downtown later this summer and bring life back to our city. This pushes us to experience what it could feel like to have a city that is centered around people, and notice how much more we can gather and build community when the cars are not always in the way.
WeiterlesenThe Southeast Greenway needs repairs! Concrete is uneven and difficult for anyone (and people on wheelchairs or any wheels) to go over. Freeman Mill Rd, where people are often going 45mph+ runs right by it making it very unsafe for people going through the greenway itself. Who are those railings really protecting?
Weiterlesenit is hot out, and some people in greensboro don’t have anywhere to go. our city’s infrastructure tells us if we are welcome, if we are safe, and (for some) if we deserve to live
WeiterlesenSHARE📢📢📢📢 ❤️ even if you can’t attend sharing our ride flyer helps!
WeiterlesenGDOT has installed temporary “traffic calming” on Josephine Boyd, forcing cars ONTO the *unprotected* bike lane (actually it’s not even a bike lane) and closer to the sidewalk. This puts bicyclists and pedestrians in more danger. If you’re going to install traffic calming, at least design it well, and consider people instead of cars. Make sure to email the Director of Transportation johanna.
Weiterlesenthe city recently installed a LPI (leading pedestrian interval) which gives pedestrians a few seconds to start crossing this intersection before the light turns green. while this has made the crossing better, it isn’t enough. a curb extension and visible crosswalks would start to make the crossing safer. why have greenways that are for pedestrians and make the crossings unsafe?
WeiterlesenAlong the downtown Greenway the Permaculture Guild created an edible garden! Showing us what’s possible when we truly use public space to meet people’s needs. Here we have tons and tons of blackberries soon to be ready to eat!
Weiterlesenpolicing doesn’t just make some of us feel unsafe, it doesn’t solve the problem of speeding, in fact it’s a way for city officials city planners, and engineers to stop taking accountability for the way our roads are built. instead of trying to “enforce” the law, build a city that doesn’t look like a highway! invest in infrastructure that is safe for humans!
Weiterlesen** Sign up now live in bio!!! 🐮🌕 Hi! After a lot of considering I think we are going to give this one a go 🙏🏻 working on a few details but wanted to give everyone as much lead time as possible for planning. Be on the lookout for a post soon with more info and maybe a quick form of some kind so I can better plan ahead for numbers and needs.
WeiterlesenAmazing ride today! Thank you everyone for showing up to May Critical Mass 🦋🦋🦋🦋🌸🌸🌸🌸 you make it happen!
WeiterlesenCity of Greensboro has left what used to be a railroad crossing, (a gravel trail on Battleground) leading onto the rest of the A&Y trail connecting to Lake Daniel, Latham trails, and the Downtown Greenway With an embarrassing “Ride at Your Own Risk” sign, which tells us it’s dangerous to ride through these crossings but that if you are a bicyclist or pedestrian and you die, itll be your responsibility Battleground is poorly designed and dangerous and has so much potential to be a pedestrian hub with many small businesses.
Weiterlesenbadly designed possibility by a person who has no experience in engineering or planning, yet we can dream up what ~~could~~ be if our city was truly car optional
WeiterlesenIf you know, you KNOW. We need more of those who KNOW to inform policy, budgets, and leadership around transportation infrastructure + systems. 🎙️🎙️🎙️ We have 5 DAYS to reach our Civic Action Zine crowdfunding goal. A reminder that our bilingual mobility justice zine will feature art, poetry, and stories centering all who👩🏿🦽👨🏽🦼👩🏾🦯🚶♀️🚴🏾🚏.
