Chicago is spending over $17 million to add miles of new bike lanes — all in hopes of curbing segregation and boosting racial equity - eviltoast

There obviously more work to be done and I love that Chicago is so far ahead of so many cities when it comes to bicycle infrastructure.

    Chicago has a long history of segregation in the city. It’s worse than a lot of cities in the US. POC are leaving the city in droves because the city hasn’t well addressed the issues of the past. While I think wording it for pedestrian safety makes a lot of sense, this also makes sense in the context of Chicago
