@relevantworm @JauneBaguette The complaint-based system is worse for #TranspoEquity It favors those with the time to complain and thide who know or believe the system will work for them so they bother to complain.

A more equitable approach is to have a comprehensive inventory of your sidewalk condition (as LIDAR can do) and build sidewalks based objective merits.

Text of a tweet by the othering and belonging Institute: Transportation is more than just A to B. It's a component of social equity. #OBI & the Transportation Equity Leaders-in-Residence program want to commission artists for our Radical Imagination in Transportation Planning zine.

Connecting dense housing with dense employment with good bike infrastructure == Less car traffic.

Apartment buildings within 10, 20, 30 minute bike from the center of IU campus in #BloomingtonIN visualized with bike infrastructure and trails that connect them.

#introduction for urbanists.social after moving from mastodon.online.

I use spatial analysis & #mapping to address transportation and housing equity. Recent work:

* #Opensource software to calculate walk potential and other metrics to prioritize sidewalk funding locations.
* Auditing my city's sidewalk funding to against equity metrics
* Visualizing how neighborhood associations use boundaries and bylaws to systematically exclude multi-family housing.

I've published software used to create a heatmap of locations to prioritize for sidewalk funding.

Using #SpatialAnalysis I found missing sidewalks located near busy roads in #BloomingtonIN. Now some of these missing sidewalks are getting built by the city. https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/a0c4fe79b62b4ad8a4b6d92dcb304a8d #TranspoEquity #UrbanPlanning #StoryMaps
