Thanks @StreetsblogUSA. However, there is still much work to be done! @njstreetsmart @NJBikeWalk @NJTPA @SafeRoutesNJ @NJTrafficSafety @NewJerseyDOT @NJ_Planning @ITEhq @CitiBikeNYC @NACTO
Hoboken, NJ may be the only US city in recent memory to have completely eliminated traffic deaths from its streets — and they've done it for three years in a row. @StreetsblogNYC took a field trip to see first-hand how they did it.

Pedestrian safety is not expensive 😄 For more context, that trash prevented drivers from making a sharp turn.
