Hi neighbors, The Euclid Neighborway pilot is in (yay!), and I'm writing to provide some additional information and context. Please see below: - The route now includes wayfinding signs <https://photos.app.goo.gl/KBEnpG73GByHza6x7>, which will help kids get to school and new residents navigate to the Bryant Street business district, Borland Garden, and even the East Liberty farmers market. As part of the city’s Bike(+) Plan <https://pittsburghpa.gov/domi/bikeplan>, it creates a more connected network to community assets such as the Barack Obama Academy, Fulton elementary, the park, future bike lanes on Penn circle, and shops in East Liberty, a huge win for the community. - The street's speed limit has been reduced to 20 mph! Last August, the median speed on Euclid was 25 mph, with 85% percent of cars travelling at 29 mph or less. 44% of car traffic was speeding on Euclid. To give some perspective, if hit by a car going 30 mph, 5 out of 10 pedestrians will be killed. If hit by a car going 20 mph, only 1 in 10 pedestrians will die. Reducing the speed limit decreases the chances of pedestrian death/injury on Euclid. This project is a direct response to Pittsburgh's Vision Zero initiative <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiho6bQo5vqAhXJVN8KHRUaA5IQFjAAegQIAxAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpittsburghpa.gov%2Fonepgh%2Fdocuments%2Fplace%2Fsafe-streets.pdf&usg=AOvVaw2j9m3wQ8tB7AGWIddBrg8Z>, which seeks to eliminate traffic-related injuries and fatalities. - The neighborway is a critical step in meeting the city’s climate goals of reducing transportation-related emissions 50% by 2030. City’s 2030 Climate Action Plan calls for increasing the bicycle mode share to 10% in order to achieve climate goals. Currently bicycle mode share is 2%. By providing safer infrastructure for biking, more people will be inclined to ride, improving air quality <https://www.alleghenycounty.us/Health-Department/Programs/Air-Quality/Air-Quality.aspx> and health of the elderly, children, pregnant women and people with heart or respiratory disease. - Lastly, better bicycle infrastructure/more people biking *literally saves you money* through taxes. Each mile travelled by bike *earns *the city 42 cents. The same mile driven by car *costs* the city 20 cents. If you don't believe me, check out Bikenomics by Elly Blue. More info can be found on the Move Forward PGH website <https://moveforwardpgh.org/ne/>, and your feedback here. <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdLvHzxEMavyHlglXNXMugctmniaTF7GMCicf_KILByGpBqDQ/viewform?usp=sf_link> There will be a second public meeting <https://moveforwardpgh.org/july-30-second-n-euclid-neighborway-public-meeting/> on July 30. Thanks for your time and to the hundreds of people in the city who have been advocating for these improvements for years. For everyone’s health and well-being, Abe
