Spiders (and Batman) on Klickitat
The City has been working on the new bike boulevard/neighborhood greenway on NE Klickitat Street. Readers Esther and Timo sent in the photos below of the brand new speed bumps and an interesting decoration on one of them. Does anyone know what the spider signifies? (There’s also a Batman symbol on the same street).
The Monday Roundup
Here’s the news that caught my eye this week:
– Hangzhou, China boasts the largest bike sharing system in the world, with 50,000 bicycles and strong integration with public transit.
– Bicycle transportation is hardly the proprietary realm of creative class residents of gentrified inner cities–in fact, bicycling has a rich heritage all over the globe, though that isn’t always reflected by outreach efforts, advocacy, and facilities locations in U.S. cities.
– While global consortia are unable to agree on approaches to climate change, cities around the world are tackling the problem, in part through promoting bicycling.
