Despite breaking down again yesterday, it seems that the Box Hill Bus Station escalator is back up and running today.
Have updated the counter accordingly and hopefully I can now shut up about it: https://philipmallis.com/2025/02/07/the-box-hill-bus-station-escalator-saga/
Do any of my fellow #Portland (#PDX) #BikeTooter folk use #bike and #transit to get to Wilsonville from, say, downtown? Unsurprisingly there don't seem to be a lot of options to get that far.

This will be a horrible scenario for Philadelphia:
Those and other cuts totaling 45% of SEPTA service would be implemented in two phases, starting this fall — if the Pennsylvania legislature doesn’t pass Gov. Josh Shapiro’s latest proposal to increase state aid for mass transit systems.

Trust me, it's tasteful
Looking to write a history of NIMBYism? You could focus on just one project, the effort to build #housing on a parking lot next to a suburban D.C. #transit station. Incredibly, this project has been blocked for 25 years by “a small number of vocal neighbors.” At last, it seems to be moving forward. Why? Because public attitudes have changed and political patience with #NIMBYs has grown thin. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/04/06/dc-housing-development-takoma-density/

Running trains successfully through the tunnel for the first time is a massive project milestone.
Not that I disagree with the sentiment, but before we bother building more trains, we need to build more mixed-use apartment buildings in town and city centers. No point in trains if there aren't concentrations of populations to use them. #urbanism #architecture #planning #transit #transportation
Experimenting with showing custom icons for stations. Inspired a bit from our highway shield rendered (derived from OpenStreetMap Americana)
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-maps/-/tree/wip/mlundblad/station-icons
It's making use of the "network:wikidata" OSM tag.
Currently rendering these icons in map view itself is not tested (this needs an extra addition to our planetiler generator for the vector tiles to be run in the next import).
