We have electric bikes and scooters in our city and this summer they also cover the neighborhood I live. Haven't had the time to test them yet.

Yay!! That's awesome, I'd love to see those here.
I live on Jeju-Do: a South Korean island with a population of ~700'000. Half of the registered electric cars in all of Korea are on the island. Anecdotally, just driving down the road to work, every third car I see is electric. We've got electric buses, scooters, and bikes all over the place too. If only we could stop the pollution blowing over from China (not that Korea is innocent of polluting their own air.)
That sounds awesome..!
Upgraded bicycle lanes are so nice. In my city they made them green
My city has been getting an abnormal amount of rain. So much that we have already surpassed 2022 total. Weβre not in a drought and the fire risk is low and everything is so green.
We're supposed to be getting a rail trail soon. Train line hasn't been used for more than 30 years. New England, NSW.
The train folk aren't happy about it, but I can't see the government spending billions to open a badly decayed line when one already exists two hours away along the coast, and they're already building another one on the plains not too far away.
Rail trails are amazing tbf, there's one right that passes across the street from me, it goes 30 miles west to Lake Michigan.
Love seeing the bike lanes posts. I just moved to a new area so everything is new to me. There's a little park in the neighborhood that has free music many weekends in the summer though so that's a cool thing.
A tractor supply just went up. It's a glorified hardware store. Great. Just slightly better than ace hardware π₯±.
They might potentially take a state recreational area and turn it into national park which im unsure of tbh. There's no infrastructure, they'd charge (barrier), more people to kinda ruin what pristine woodland we even have.
I'm sort of indifferent about it, undecided at least, and it depends how or if it goes down at all.
Otherwise, ain't shit happening here and that's why I live here.
Theyβre adding accessibility to some of the subway stations that are big junction points. When itβs complete, itβll make it just a bit easier for everyone to use the public transit network downtown, and make certain commutes that were extremely inconvenient a bit more accessible. Hope they keep doing this!
Hey man that's something you should ask who would go outside.
