There were two pieces of good news from the transit agency yesterday and today.

This mobility justice campaign focuses on disability rights and racial equity.

Predictably, some neighbors are confused about the bump-outs, and worried that they will make the street less safe, and less convenient for drivers.

Hopefully this second death will make it even more obvious to city and state officials that Cermak needs to made safer, and they will take action.

Commuters Take Action says they're "wary" of the CTA's claims that previous schedule service will be restored by mid-November.

Last Friday, the mobility justice nonprofit Equiticity held its first-ever "Creativity in Motion: The North Lawndale People’s Ride," a community bike ride focused on film and television. The ride began and ended at Cinespace, 2621 W. 15th Pl. in North Lawndale, meeting at 5:30 p.m. and departing an hour later. It’s a studio where several movies and shows have been filmed, such as the Chicago Med / Fire / P.D. franchise. The ride participants got to bike through Cinespace and passed the outside of the Firehouse, where Chicago Fire is filmed.

As predicted last month, the news is not encouraging.

Pulaski is generally a five-lane street, which encourages speeding.

Streetsblog recently sat in on the course to see what it’s like.
