Going #carfree is challenging, albeit rewarding, especially in a smaller city like #Pittsburgh. This does a great job of covering the challenges & considerations when making this jump.

🏘️ Great news for #Pittsburgh: City Council just voted to eliminate mandatory parking minimums for new buildings! @Pittsburgh
Other U.S. cities that have done this have seen positive results.

With all the excitement with PRT's Bus Line Refresh, we missed Mid Mon Valley Transit's proposed new system at midmonmoves.com! They seem to be using the same Remix software that PRT is using as well. I do have concerns with their proposals, primarily the frequencies – at Pittsburgh, PA
I didn't realize Youngstown and Akron had Amtrak service until so recently. I figured they would be difficult to serve again, though it does appear that this train didn't stop at Cleveland which is quite unfortunate – at Pittsburgh, PA

I definitely need to get a bike out yo the East and check out these Bucks County trails! – at Pittsburgh, PA
Enjoy Bucks County trails and parks! Trails are transportation options, too! Walking & biking trails can improve mobility, reduce traffic congestion, and provide more choices for getting around! youtu.be/Jmnh_mx9fkw?si=rXTy…

When will Ross Township start to take pedestrian safety seriously? This is not the first time this has happened... Clearly the barriers aren't helping!

How's this for happenstance, on a whim I was looking around the other day for pictures of Amtrak at Philly International, and thanks to recording of a presentation at the West Jersey Chapter of the NRHS, there I go...
Congratulations to Miami for the MIA Northeast Corridor - not to be confused with Amtrak's NEC 😀 – at Pittsburgh, PA
I'm well overdue for a trip back to Buffalo. Preferably when it's warmer, unlike when I went in February last time 😅 – at Millvale, PA
Hi @PghTransitCare - is the 64 only on a temporary detour via Aiken and Ellsworth, or is this the new permanent routing for this line?
The comments to this post remind me of just how far some of my colleagues commute to work, with some driving an hour+ to the office.
BREAKING: Allegheny County passes a 12-week parental leave for employers with 15 or more workers. PA does not have any statewide parental leave rules and Allegheny County will become the first county in the state to have one. axios.com/local/pittsburgh/2…
Lol this is my love for the Blvd Direct, especially when they added that stop at Southampton! When it didn't stop at Southampton I was less than thrilled. – at Millvale, PA
Nothing disgusts me more on the roadway than when motorists blatantly ignore school bus lights and stop signs. #nationalschoolbussafetyweek – at Reserve Township, PA
Here’s a little refresher for National School Bus Safety Week:
🟡 Yellow means slow
🛑 Red means stop
Let’s protect kids getting on and off the school bus! Always stop when the stop-arm is out!
