An excellent episode of @notjustbikes&#39;s Urbanist Agenda with @BrentToderian. 5 stages of urban planning. 1: the wrong thing (car-centric design). 2: the wrong thing, but better (EVs are better than ICE cars). 3: have your cake and eat it too (widen roads while adding bike/transit lanes). 4: doing the right thing, badly (painted bike lanes). Alt 4: only the low-hanging fruit (bike lanes in parks). Finally, 5: doing the right thing, well. Says @brisbane did stage 3 when he was here.

Two buses pull up, 2nd is directly on the bike lane, before the island. And even the one on the island doesn&#39;t have enough width before pedestrians hit the bike lane to give them time to view and eval...
