Our parks should be a safe place for everyone outside of a car to visit. This is a great start to making our parks even more enjoyable to walk and bike!
Today, I introduced a bill to lower the speed limit on City park roads to 15 MPH. In this pandemic, we learned how important our parks are to our daily lives, and I want to make them as safe as possible.

Basically everything stated here is false. Muni budgets don’t pay for lion’s share of bridge repairs, need state of fed funds first. Bike lanes are 1/1000th cost of bridge repairs. Green energy programs are rules companies have to adhere to and self-driving is privately funded.
Stay safe out there South Siders! Looks like the plows haven't made it around all of the flats yet! – at Pittsburgh, PA

"Infrastructure, infrastructure, infrastructure. If you build the right infrastructure — and that’s basically safe, protected bike lanes — then you’ll see more of these uses."
