High speed rail; homeless Hummers; Berlin fixie ban; traffic in India; traffic in Indonesia; the gender gap; genetics; walking; playing in the street
Hang on to your hats, folks, there’s a lot of news this week.
– A NY Times Op-Ed speculating that Detroit, with its disappearing population and wide, empty streets, could be transformed into a bicycling utopia has been causing a stir around the web.

– On the whole, the population of US cities is beginning to grow again, reports Streetsblog.
– The Sightline Institute has found that we’re using less gas in the Pacific Northwest — in fact, in the past year we’ve dropped down to 1965 levels.
– A compendium of the Obama administration’s transportation goals.
