January 2015 – Fremont Avenue Experience
https://fremontavenueexperience.wordpress.com/2015/01
Transportation, Land Use, and more in Minneapolis. January 30, 2015. January 30, 2015. Okay, my first post won’t be anything special (in fact, fairly weak). So. Today, my wife emailed me a story from work:. I was in a training this morning and one of the examples of how to lead people through change … And the example was a family deciding to go carless. Other members of the family would be resistant but how do you convince them that this is a good decision, etc. I’ll even admit, dropping from two c...

March 2015 – Fremont Avenue Experience
https://fremontavenueexperience.wordpress.com/2015/03
Transportation, Land Use, and more in Minneapolis. The Type of Roads We’re Building. March 3, 2015. March 3, 2015. I’ve spent a good chunk of time on streets.mn lambasting the GOP for their transportation rhetoric. We’re still in the thick of our 2015 legislative session, and transportation is obviously a huge part of the debate. So I want to spend just a little bit more time evaluating what both parties seem eager to propose with new spending (the DFL plan. I guess). I figured the link of US-212. Sarcas...

Let’s Talk Safety – Fremont Avenue Experience
https://fremontavenueexperience.wordpress.com/2015/02/15/lets-talk-safety
Transportation, Land Use, and more in Minneapolis. Let’s Talk Safety. February 15, 2015. I came across this Family Friendly Cities blog post. The other day, and of course I’m inclined to agree with the general consensus. You hear a variety of reasons people want to move outward to the suburbs, and while there’s a nuance in the millions of decisions made across the metro (and country), my anecdotal understanding is the ranking follows the referenced ‘best cities’ ranking. In the United States:. But again,...

Portland’s Parking Policies are Still Better Than Ours – Fremont Avenue Experience
https://fremontavenueexperience.wordpress.com/2015/02/04/portlands-parking-policies-are-still-better-than-ours
Transportation, Land Use, and more in Minneapolis. Portland’s Parking Policies are Still Better Than Ours. February 4, 2015. February 5, 2015. Is there a better city to compare ourselves to than Portland? I haven’t been there (well, I drove through it on a freeway from Multnomah Falls hiking on the way to a beach cottage stayover on my honeymoon, but I don’t think seeing a skyline from a highway. Really counts). But they seem good at things, like biking, streetcars ( maybe not. So when a 2 year old story.

What Metric Should We Use For Vehicle Safety? – Fremont Avenue Experience
https://fremontavenueexperience.wordpress.com/2015/02/20/what-metric-should-we-use-for-vehicle-safety
Transportation, Land Use, and more in Minneapolis. What Metric Should We Use For Vehicle Safety? February 20, 2015. February 20, 2015. Okay, specifically when comparing transportation modes. It gets way too complicated when you try to include everything, as the end of my last post. Today, I am specifically inspired by Randal O’Toole’s latest post denigrating light rail transit. I almost always push bus before rail)., but because of the way Mr. O’Toole presents the safety numbers. Ultimately, what really ...
