#Miami is the most hostile city for #pedestrians. This is in the heart of #CoconutGrove in @kenrussellmiami's district on the recently repaved Bird Ave, where @MyFDOT_Miami found this crosswalk to be perfectly acceptable.

Always inspired by @wmataGM's vision. Under his leadership, @wmata is setting a global benchmark in ridership growth with a straightforward formula: fast, frequent, and safe service. Quality transit brings riders back—something every agency should strive for. #APTAworkforce24

If #Miami is ever going to get serious about vessel transport (we know it's not) it should look to emulate the success of Scandinavian Cities: Copenhagen, Goteborg, and Stockholm. Fast, efficient, integrated with the waterfront..

These are locations where interurban and streetcar services once fostered dense land use patterns, supportive of public transit. Instead of chasing after shiny new projects, we must maintain focus on investing transportation dollars into revitalizing existing corridors.

It begs the question: why persist with pushing an ambitious transit map instead of investing in revitalizing historic transit corridors? Transit investment in Miami should prioritize areas where robust transit infrastructure thrived in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s.

Every new transit project in North America should aim for what @MetroenKBH exemplifies: 1. Fast, frequent service with 4-minute headways 🚇 2. Clean, safe, and modern facilities 🛃 3. A comfortable and enjoyable customer experience ☺️
