🚲️ Some great options for 3rd Avenue! We like Option 2 since it has the bike lane transition happening at Earll, with protection. Option 3 also has some positives. We don't prefer Option 1 since it has more potential conflict with ambulances. Vote now: shorturl.at/dfIV7

🧵 Here’s a timely @nytimes opinion piece about our #DangerousByDesign city streets & the awful increase in pedestrian 🚶🏽♀️ + cyclist 🚴♂️ fatalities — 👀 at you, @CityofPhoenixAZ. nytimes.com/2023/10/21/opi…
@UrbanPhxProject Those 3 🤬 'concepts'. Literally first 'goal' on project page: "Creating a safer and more inviting area for people walking or riding bicycles to locations along the corridor". Result: only 1 of 3 'concepts' even has bike lane, and is just strip of paint on 40+ MPH arterial.
In 2016, Medellín, Colombia’s second largest city, kicked off a new “green corridors” initiative to help mitigate the effects of air pollution and urban heat. Today, there are more than 30 of these corridors connecting local green spaces: bbc.com/future/article…
In the 1950s and 60s, highways devastated communities of color. Our report, #DividedByDesign, explains that it’s not enough to recognize the mistakes of our past—it’s time to fix them. Learn how we can shift our approach. smartgrowthamerica.org/divided-by-des…
Building a denser city, increasing access to public transit options, and investing in heat resilience are some of the many ways Phoenix can curb the effects of climate change. Read my Q&A with @insideclimate to see how we're building a better future for our city. ⤵️
The Phoenix, Arizona summer of 2023 was one for the record books. Kate Gallego answers how the city is looking to address extreme heat and drought to build a more sustainable city. insideclimatenews.org/news/16102023/…

Are you ready for a brand new Central Station in downtown Phoenix? 👀 Today, we celebrated a major milestone in its construction. When complete, this will be our city's premiere public transit hub complete with retail, housing, and a 360° degree view of Phoenix! 🌆
The work never stops! Sen. @annahernandezfor24 and I are proud to lead the Democratic Caucus on housing policy as co-chairs of the Bicameral Housing Working Group.
It's been almost 20 years since we last voted on a general obligation bond in Phoenix, so let me help break down what the bond is and what it could do for our city.
#CompleteStreets advance safety for all road users, but did you know that @completestreets have an added benefit—they can help communities address the #climate crisis in a way that is resource-efficient, equitable, and community-oriented. Learn more 👇smartgrowthamerica.org/complete-stree…
Most car trips in America are under 6 miles, and they’re for things like groceries, appointments, shopping, and dining. Our built environment requires people to spend thousands of dollars a year on vehicles just to drive a few minutes away.
Big 🏘️ news, Phoenix! Today, after years of hard work, we voted to allow Phoenicians to utilize casitas in their neighborhoods, which will provide more housing options for families. They are just one tool of many we’re deploying to tackle the affordable housing challenge.
The Phoenix City Council took the necessary step today to pass a text amendment to allow Accessory Dwelling Units. I am proud to say that the work the @PHXPlanandDev and I, along with other City staff, will allow for more Phoenix residents to find an affordable housing option.
Not even the worst cold I’ve had in years could keep me from voting in support of more affordable housing options. In an 8-1 vote, Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) or backyard casitas are once again legal throughout Phx. I’m so proud to have helped spearhead & pass this policy.
There’s been a lot of false info about my work to make PHX more sustainable. What I’m not doing: ❌ banning meat or milk What I am doing: ✅ increasing housing options ✅ improving walkability and transit ✅ reducing emissions and energy bills ✅ enjoying cereal
