We've seen complaints about the closure of the Cortland Bridge making bike commuting more dangerous and less convenient. If you feel like sharing which major intersections you travel between using Cortland, we may put together a map of alternative routes.

On Sunday, Elmo’s X account was briefly hacked by an outside party, in spite of the security measures in place.
We strongly condemn the abhorrent antisemitic and racist content, and the account has since been secured.
These posts in no way reflect the values of Sesame Workshop or Sesame Street, and no one at the organization was involved.

Here’s the loser that stole my bike and others from our bike room #BikeChi @ChiCritMass @CWBChicago @BlockClubCHI
Bicycle was stolen this morning out of my “secure” bike room at my apartment in River West. I know it’s a long shot but would appreciate anyone who can keep any eye out #BikeChi

Sustainable transportation advocacy legend Jacky Grimshaw will receive the Tom Skilling Lifetime Achievement Award from Climate Action Museum tonight. Cameron Bolton interviewed her about the honor, and her current work fighting the transit fiscal cliff.

A bicyclist was dragged 30 feet after being struck by an SUV in Edgewater last week.
CPD needs a little help finding the car and the driver.

2025 is looking to be a tough year for U.S. sustainable transportation advocacy. Streetsblog Chicago just launched our annual fund drive. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation so we can keep fighting for better walk/bike/transit. Thank you!

There's plenty of evidence that Evanston's Chicago Avenue merchants should learn to stop worrying and love the bike lane plan.
