#PMPupdate is also looking for feedback on weighting of demand vs. safety vs. equity. No right answer necessarily, only values

#PMPupdate demand analysis indicates center city has highest demand (because it does), but SDOT worried this de-prioritizes further out
Seattle Pedestrian Advisory Board retweeted
#PMPupdate "vibrancy" also known as demand includes urban villages, commercial zoning, 10 minute walksheds for transit, parks, and schools
Seattle Pedestrian Advisory Board retweeted
#PMPupdate Defines equity factor as: income, disability, diabetes, physical activity, obesity rates, and communities of color

#PMPupdate includes speed of cars. As we know speeds in Seattle can be deadly
