Road Kill Gil has been defeated! Congratulations to Highland Park’s very own @EunissesH who ran a people-powered campaign for Los Angeles City Council. Looking forward to a North Figueroa that is safer by design, not enforcement. #CD1 #visionzeroLA
Figueroa For All retweeted
0.8-miles of new bike lanes on North Figueroa Street in Cypress Park - represented by the strongly anti-bike Councilmember @cmgilcedillo la.streetsblog.org/2022/02/1…
#Fig4ALL UPDATE 2022: 12 years after being proposed in the 2010 #LABikePlan, 7 years after LA City Councilmember @GilCedillo blocked them, @LADOTofficial are painting bike lanes on North Figueroa between Marmion Way and the #LAriver in Cypress Park.
The painted bike lanes are unprotected, unbuffered, and on an excessively wide and deadly section of North Figueroa with five traffic lanes. The LADOT design from seven years ago included a road diet and buffered bike lanes, our design proposed parking-protected lanes. #Fig4ALL

Best of luck to @VisionZeroLA. Hopefully some day you will get the funding you deserve, and the methodology that can make a difference.
Thank you to everyone locally, and around the world for following our cause and supporting #Fig4ALL through the years.
But he was our best hope. He was going to bell the cat! The fact that over 3000 people still voted for him speaks to this.
Then on April 28, it all imploded. Our candidate lost all his endorsements. The campaign ran aground, his crew, supporters abandoned ship.
Hundreds of people came together in a truly GRASSROOTS movement to elect @joe4cd1. We sacrificed money and months to lift him into office.
Josef was our proverbial volunteer who offered himself up to "Bell The Cat." We saw political action as our only hope to create a #Fig4all.
If you want to see a city's values, look at its checkbook. xitter.cf/bikinginla/status/8649…
Anyone following #BikeLA will notice @LADOTBikeProg seems to be languishing in recent years under @seletajewel. Reasons only she can answer.
Grateful for Mowery's efforts to help create a Figueroa for all. Hope she finds the support she deserves in @RobertGarciaLB's Long Beach. xitter.cf/bikinginla/status/8649…
Congratulations to @LadotBike' Michelle Mowery for her new job in Long Beach. #BikeLA became a #BikeFriendlyCommunity under her leadership.
