[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sometimes wonder if WABA is a true bike lobby as opposed to a “Smart Growth” development lobby. On Connecticut Avenue it is many of the same people who are pushing bike lanes and who also are pushing ever denser market-rate mixed-use development.[/quote] You are not the brightest bulb on the string. Smart growth and multi-modality are inextricably linked - density that is car oriented is a nightmare (or to be more exact Montgomery County) - so of course the people who are advocating for smart growth are also advocating for public transit, safe walkable neighborhoods, high quality bike infra etc - neither makes sense or works without the other.[/quote]
