The team behind the New York City-based Livable Streets Network that includes the Streetsblog.org blog, Streetfilms, and other tools, has launched their latest project — the Streetsblog Network.

The network aims to bring together and present the best online sources for transportation and livable streets content on the web, all into one place. When it launched Tuesday there were 100 blogs in the network (including BikePortland.org) and in just a few days that number has jumped to nearly 150.

The fast growth of the network mimics the exciting momentum of the livable streets movement. The folks at Livable Streets Network have been at the epicenter of that movement since they launched Streetsblog and have since matured and grown the project in many new ways.

In addition to the new Streetsblog Network, they are behind Streetswiki and a Livable Streets Group social media app. They’ve also recently launched an invite-only Livable Streets email discussion list.

The editor of Streetsblog and his team traveled to Portland for the Carfree Conference back in June and I profiled their work in a story titled, A look inside New York City’s burgeoning ‘livable streets movement’.
