The first half of the hour Dan continues his topic of bicycle lanes:
The bike lane boom continues in Boston and beyond. Since the beginning of the Covid pandemic, biking activity in Massachusetts has increased by more than 25%, according to the MA DOT. Boston and other MA cities and towns are trying to create and expand protected bike lane networks. This would mean getting more people to turn to bicycles than cars for their routine travel. Are you on board with expanding bike lines? Are you willing to swap your car for a bicycle?
Then, for the second half of the hour Dan dives into his third topic:
Convoys Cometh. Following the Canadian truckers’ “Freedom Convoy”, a protest against vaccine mandates and Covid-19 vaccine restrictions, U.S. truckers have decided to organize their own convoy. “The People’s Convoy” plans to gather in CA and roll across the United States all the way to D.C. protesting the government’s “unconstitutional mandates”. Dan discusses what implications have arisen and could continue to arise as a result of the convoys.
