Hope they reduce the speed limit in the city to 25 and use the revenue to support the CTA, bicycle stuff, and better pedestrian crossings.

      I think more speed cameras and a lower limit would make a noticable difference. It’s also fast to implement. With that said, a longer term goal should be to redesign roads to calm traffic more naturally.

        I think the issue with introducing speed cameras is that it’s hard to convince folks it’s about safety and not just a cash grab.

          Agreed. Would be good to just decribe it that way from the beginning, like tolled express lanes on the highway.
