I am still pissed off about Boulder's Pearl St.'s West End being re-opened to cars. pedestrian-only West End was one of the best things Boulder had done in recent years. All to protect some *really* crappy parking spots.
Definitely obnoxious how much walking and hanging space is lost to autos
@ericmbudd.bsky.social as a resident boulder local politics knower, do you think there is any appetite/possibility at all for bringing this back? I know the council was talking like they'd revisit it, and now we have a slightly more progressive council
“but we can’t have pedestrian only streets! i mean… more than the 3 blocks we already have right next to the west end!”
Ban cars
Yeah. croatian nationalist MAGAs, who have been in power for 30 years now, keep telling us how Yugoslavia was terrible and horrible... This is what they've done to the capital : 1980s vs now
Lousy move
Oh no, that sucks, that was great
Yes. Boulder does so much incredibly stupid stuff. COVID prompts them to finally do something that improves residents' quality of life, and then they reverse it a few years later. Ugh.
