Monday’s Headlines: Memorial Day Edition

Enjoy the day off, if that’s even possible. We’ll be back with national headlines on Tuesday as normal. Until then, here are a few things we noticed over the weekend:

  • There’s talk of making bike share part of the public transit system in Austin, Texas. (Community Impact)
  • We spend a lot of time talking about how people get around horizontally, but City Lab did a deep dive on elevators.
