You do not need a planning degree to know when a street is not working. You cross it every day. Share what happens there, because the conversations we have on the show begin with what people tell us about the places they live.
Just the first word that comes to mind when you picture walking out your front door. Words repeat, and the more people who choose a word, the larger it grows.
One word, letters only. Nothing personal is collected.
Maybe it is a crossing you avoid, a bus that rarely comes on time, a sidewalk that ends halfway down the block, or an intersection where you hold your child's hand a little tighter.
These are not complaints. They are the kind of information that rarely reaches the people making decisions, and they help us ask better questions. Some of these stories become episodes, and all of them make the show better.
Rebuild it curb to curb with sidewalks, bike lanes, bus lanes and trees, see how safe it scores, then walk down it. Save a picture or send the link to a neighbor.
Find your neighborhood planning unit, see when meetings happen, and learn what the research says about being heard in the room.
