If the US government paid for every citizen to fly to a country with a great high-speed rail train network, we would have bipartisan support for transformative rail service. It's hard to not want such infrastructure once you use it in person.

Also to be clear, Dolly Parton is an icon and she's a queer icon. Tennessee is taking another step back for performative purposes and it's repugnant.

“And so, I’m glad to be a girl,” Dolly explained, saying that she’s “always said it’s a good thing because the way I look, if I hadn’t been a girl, I would’ve definitely been a drag queen!”

Now that the beautiful new land bridge project in Houston's Memorial Park is open, might I suggest we cap all urban freeways with nature like this? (Nick Hubbard)

I will say, everyone has to visit BMW Welt in their lifetime. Whether you hate or love cars, it’s amazing to see how they’re built just as a nerd.

It's crazy that in this urban setting, BMW's Munich factory produces 900 cars and 1400 engines per day.

And to clarify I can’t own a bike in my building as there’s no room so I use citibike. I can’t really get attachments for bikeshare, hence why it’s hard to carry everything back.

Seeing that they weren’t built, I wonder how much of the contract they can get back or recoup monetarily?

The East Side Trolley Tunnel in Providence is regarded as one of the first protected busways after converting from rail in 1948. This RIPTA proposal for better bus priority and pedestrian improvements needs to happen because riders deserve it.
