Travel and Spending Patterns in the Temescal District of Oakland, California; Study conducted in Nov. 2014 by UC Berkeley graduates students in the Transportation Studio
Tvt katsomusaineiden opettamisen ja oppimisen tukenaTiina Airaksinen
Vantaan kaupunki järjesti kaikille ala- ja yläkoulun opettajille veso-iltapäivän aiheesta tvt opetuksessa. Koulutukset järjestettiin aineryhmittäin, ja opettajat saivat itse valita, minkä aineryhmän koulutukseen osallistuvat.
Muokkasin otsikkoni vastaamaan iltapäivän sisältöjä. Keskustelevan faktaosuuden ohella jaettiin vinkkejä alkuun pääsemiseksi, pohdittiin yhteisen tiedonrakentelun merkitystä ja työstettiin koottuja ideoita yhdessä eteenpäin.

North Oakland Community Analysis Final ReportSara Barz
In September 2014, representatives from the City of Oakland (“the City”) and the Bay Area Rapid Transit District (“BART”) approached the CP 218 Transportation Studio with questions about travel behavior and the transportation network in and around the MacArthur BART Station in Oakland, California (Figure 1). In search of data to support the proposed Complete Streets Plan for Telegraph Avenue, the City was particularly interested in travel patterns generated by commercial activity in the Temescal Commercial District (“Temescal”). Meanwhile, BART was broadly interested in promoting urban densities that would support transit, in addition to the impacts of a new transit-oriented development adjacent to the MacArthur BART Station.
With these prompts, our studio team quickly concluded that these concerns were interesting, but ultimately too narrow in scope given the magnitude of changes coming to the MacArthur area. After some exploratory analysis, we found that market and regulatory forces at regional and local levels have converged in the MacArthur area to create the conflicts and opportunities presented by urban infill growth:
• The MacArthur BART area has been promoted by regional authorities as an ideal location for new growth based on its ability b to serve new residents by transit. This designation is formalized as a Priority Development Area (“PDA”) in the region’s state- mandated plan for growth through 2040, “Plan Bay Area.”
• A new transit-oriented development, MacArthur Station, adjacent to the MacArthur BART Station, is expected to bring more than 1,000 new residents to the area over the next decade (a 17% increase).
• The real estate market in this area has recovered from the recession and begun to appreciate significantly, driving up rents and threatening potential displacement of existing residents.
• In 2015, the City of Oakland will repave and reconfigure a stretch of Telegraph Avenue that runs adjacent to the MacArthur BART Station. The City’s Complete Streets Plan will reduce travel lanes to make room for new bike lanes, which merchants in Temescal have opposed, fearing adverse impacts on auto travel and shoppers’ accessibility to the district.
Considering this context, we found ourselves wondering, how do we improve the transportation network a) to serve existing and anticipated residents and businesses and b) to create a pleasant, efficient, and safe multimodal neighborhood and corridor? Implicit in these guiding questions about the role of a transportation network were the narrower questions about travel patterns, population density, and potential impacts of the proposed Complete Streets Plan.

Walking the Walk: Complete Streets are Smart Growth Investments - GSMSummit 2...GrowSmart Maine
Why plan for growth and change, when it seems so much easier to simply react?
When there is a distinct and shared vision for your community - when residents, businesses and local government anticipate a sustainable town with cohesive and thriving neighborhoods - you have the power to conserve your beautiful natural spaces, enhance your existing downtown or Main Street, enable rural areas to be productive and prosperous, and save money through efficient use of existing infrastructure.
This is the dollars and sense of smart growth.
Success is clearly visible in Maine, from the creation of a community-built senior housing complex and health center in Fort Fairfield to conservation easements creating Forever Farms to Rockland's revitalized downtown. Communities have options. We have the power to manage our own responses to growth and change.
After all, “Planning is a process of choosing among those many options. If we do not choose to plan, then we choose to have others plan for us.” - Richard I. Winwood
And in the end, this means that our children and their children will choose to make Maine home and our economy will provide the opportunities to do so.
The Summit offers you a wonderful opportunity to be a part of the transformative change in Maine that we’ve seen these gatherings produce. We encourage you to consider the value of being actively involved in growing Maine’s economy and protecting the reasons we choose to live here.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

70. STREET NETWORK |
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Complete Streets plan supports biking and walking, but it
is not enough to avoid congestion from population growth
• Complete Streets plan results in increased delay for cars
and buses
• Bike travel patterns through Telegraph Ave & 46th and
Telegraph Ave & 40th are not considered in the Complete
Streets plan
• Underpasses are neglected and require design focus
72. CONCLUSIONS |
RESIDENTS
Goal: Support existing residents while developing without
displacement
● Current policies do not reduce displacement pressure from
future development.
● There is evidence of sustained disinvestment on the west side
of the freeway.
73. CONCLUSIONS |
COMMERCE
Goal: Promote locally serving businesses
● Most businesses are disproportionately located in the north
and east.
● Essential services, like grocery stores, are missing from the
area.
● There is an opportunity for future business development near
MacArthur BART.
74. CONCLUSIONS |
MOBILITY
Goal: Enable a multimodal lifestyle
● Current residents are multimodal, but visitors to the
neighborhood are more car dependent.
● The June 2014 Complete Streets Design narrowly supports
bicycle and pedestrian activity on Telegraph Avenue, and the
plan does not support transit.
● Parking is not being managed strategically.
75. CONCLUSIONS |
CONNECTIVITY
Goal: Foster inter- and intra-neighborhood connections
● The design of the street network is fragmented for bicycles
and pedestrians.
● The June 2014 Complete Streets Design does not address
most of the significant barriers to a connected street network.
● There are patterns of disconnection in the area: East vs. West
and Temescal vs. MacArthur BART.
76. CONCLUSIONS |
GROWTH
Goal: Accommodate and promote planned growth and new
residents
● Existing policies and public investments are insufficient to
spur development at the level called for by Plan Bay Area.
● A continuation of historical growth trends is not significant
enough to catalyze transformative change in mode shift.
