One of the biggest problems with American transit is that it’s run by people who do not use or even like transit.
Daniel Trubman@dmtrubman
Just absolutely insane to see a vice president of TWU 100 in NYC making anti-bus lane videos, and generally complaining about NYC discouraging driving and enforcing traffic rules. Desperately begging progressive transit advocates to realize transit unions just aren't our allies.

@DCCelebrity I disagree with your premise (car owners are on average vastly more wealthy than non-car owners) but also the section of bike lanes NPS plans to remove did not have parking. They replaced travel lanes.

I love the NWS! I wish more of my tax dollars were used for similar cool and useful things!

I really wish people understood this fact instead of crying about the NWS wasting money. A cup of coffee per year helping save your life isn’t a bad deal.

I saw a family at Union Station last weekend talking about the demise of the streetcar (probably coming from a ride). Kids were remarking that the streetcar died by a thousand cuts like the Circulator… I guess the kids are alright, but the adults of DC are letting them down.

With 15 days left to ride #DCStreetcar, we’re reflecting on 10 years of service along the H Street NE Corridor and Benning Road. Thank you to our riders, local businesses, and community for being part of the journey. Service will end Tuesday, March 31, 2026.

Paul Ehrlich is a testament to the power of pessimism privilege:
get predictions totally wrong, cause massive harm, never back down, get cushy job, get fawning obituaries.

His predictions weren't "premature." They were just wrong. They didn't happen, and they never will.

@TimSloanDC @PurpleLineMD @purplelinenow @WABADC Hi Tim, do you have an official source for the opening date of the trail? Last I heard they were planning to finish construction soon, but hadn’t said when the trail would actually open.

“Parisian car traffic fell by more than half between 2002 and 2023, while cycle lanes expanded sixfold. Bikes now make more than twice as many journeys as cars.” @FinancialTimes

Caught some late night @PurpleLineMD 🟣 testing yesterday near the College Park-UMD Metro Station! My first time seeing the LRVs in person. Always great to see more progress!

here’s a crazy fact: more Americans have been killed in disputes over parking this year than on the nyc subway
also it’s called the subway not the “metro train”

.@SecDuffy: "I'm a Republican, and I love transit…You should be able to have your 14-year-old daughter get on a metro train in New York City at 7 o'clock at night and feel safe. And there's no way in hell I would ever put my daughter on the MTA in New York."
