Armchair Urbanist Emergency Video about Philly Bike Lanes (Patreon)
Content
Hey everyone, if you do not live in philly or follow philly news we unfortunately had a tragic bike death on Wednesday this week, where a driver murdered a cyclist in the bike lane well she was going to work. It was so obviously because the driver was just impatient and it could have been avoided if the bike lane had any protection whatsoever.
So this weekend I'll be working on a quick video for the main channel calling out politicians and the neighborhood associations that held up this specific bike lane from becoming protected leading to her death. My callout video about the Alameda trench will have to wait for next week.
I'm so frustrated with the current situation that it's honestly hard to focus on other work until this is done. If you want some related resources, check out the links below here:If you live in philly and want to get involved, check out this group:https://bikeaction.org/

The schedule will resume to normal after this video is out on Monday or Tuesday. Thanks,
