The latest streets and transportation news from Streetsblog USA.

We made it to Friday! Three items of note as you go into the weekend:

Have you read SB USA editor Kea Wilson’s series on St. Louis’s sustainable transit revolution? Check it out here, and stay tuned for the next installment on Monday.

Today through Sunday is Park(ing) Day, when people all over the world will reimagine what public space can look like by temporarily taking “parking” spaces and converting them into public parks and social spaces to advocate for safer, greener, and more equitable streets for people. If you plan on participating, take some photos and send them to our editor to be featured in a roundup.

Make sure you give the 500th (!) episode of Talking Headways a listen.

Now, onto today’s news…
