Notes:

  • The New Jerset governor thinks widening the highway will be good for the environment ("just like a totally asinine not founded in reality statement and claim”)
  • Grassroots advocacy groups + the mayor of Jersey City opposes highway expansion
  • Low income communities, including parks and schools, that sit right next to the highway and will be negatively affected - lead paint chips rain down on the playground
  • The current system isn’t safe no matter what mode you’re traveling in
  • I get schooled in the term accident vs collision
  • What led Tyler to urbanism, he was very car centric
  • Tyler convinced his EMT colleague to  buy an  ebike
  • What the biggest obstruction for emts is for getting to calls (its cars)
