The Queens Ribbon
The Queens Ribbon The proposed “Queens Ribbon” a bicycle-pedestrian bridge connecting Queens to Manhattan (rendering by T.Y. Lin International). A plan for three new car-free bridges to Manhattan’s Business District from Queens, Brooklyn, and New Jersey June 24, 2020 Table of Contents 1. Introduction 2. Background 3. The Need for Bicycle-Pedestrian Bridges 4. Three New Bridges – Alignment Options 5. Queens-Roosevelt Island-Midtown Manhattan Ribbon Bridge Case Study 6. Conclusion Appendices A. Worldwide Bicycle-Pedestrian Bridges B. Bicycling Growth in New York City C. Level of Service on East River Bridges D. Our Team 2 1. Introduction At the start of the Covid-19 crisis a group of transportation engineers began working together, on a pro bono basis, to develop a transportation system that would provide an almost risk-free method of travel to Manhattan’s Central Business District (CBD – Manhattan south of Central Park). The impetus for this grouping was the realization that the city may face similar epidemics, a severe flu season, or other man-made or natural disasters in the future. Experience told the group that the two forms of transportation that are most risk-free from both infections and crashes are walking and bicycling. These “active transportation” options are also healthy modes that burn calories, and build muscle, bone, heart, and lung strength while improving mental and emotional health. From this discussion, the idea of a bicycle-pedestrian bridge was born. Importantly, these facilities would be equitable. Costs to use them would be a pair of shoes or a bicycle. The group included teams from the Institute of Design & Each bridge could handle Construction (IDC) Innovation Hub of the NYU Tandon School approximately 20,000 people of Engineering, T.Y.

SURF HIGHWAY 45 Your Guide to the Touring Route Around Taranaki’S Coastline
SURF HIGHWAY 45 Your guide to the touring route around Taranaki’s coastline taranaki.co.nz/visit WELCOME TO THE SURF HIGHWAY Surf Highway 45 is the 105km coastal route connecting New Plymouth (1) in the north to Hāwera (2) in the south. Between these centres there are dozens of notable places to stop, from surf breaks, beaches, points of historic and cultural interest, scenic spots, and cafés in vibrant and welcoming villages. A journey along the Surf Highway traces the route of generations of surfers, but it offers much more than just surf. The highway weaves through a number of Taranaki’s stories – the surf, the landscape, the rich history, and the creativity, all the while under the watchful gaze of Taranaki Maunga. For more information head to taranaki.co.nz/visit RICH IN HISTORY Taranaki’s history begins with our picture-perfect ancestor Taranaki Maunga and his mythical journey from the Central Plateau (brokenhearted after losing a battle for Mount Pihanga) and includes historic land battles, the birth of the passive resistance movement, and pioneering industrial growth, all of which have contributed to modern-day Taranaki and the many vivid stories we have to tell. These stories are best experienced through the many museums on offer, with the following located on or near Surf Highway 45. • New Plymouth’s waterfront Puke Ariki (1) is a museum, library and i-SITE providing information about the city’s past and present. A fascinating guided walk is also available – book at the i-SITE, 1 Ariki St, New Plymouth. • Tawhiti Museum and Traders & Whalers (3) has been repeatedly judged one of the country’s best museums, and has to be experienced to be believed.

Te Rewa Rewa a Bridge That Really Connects
Te Rewa Rewa – A Bridge that really connects For bridges to give dignity to their setting they must first be built with dignity By Peter Mulqueen: FIPENZ, CPEng, IntPE(NZ), Bridge Engineer and Designer; Ironhorse Bridge Ltd, New Zealand Figure 1: Te Rewa Rewa Bridge with Mount Taranaki in the background. The bridge allowed the extension of the existing New Plymouth Coastal Walkway to cross the Waiwhakaiho River and be extended to the suburb of Bell Block. There is very little written about the creative process as it pertains to bridge design. As a designer, I’ve learned to dissect the thought processes needed to develop a design concept for whichever project is before me. So it was with the Te Rewa Rewa shared pathway bridge. I have defined the creative process for bridge design as being made up of three advancements. The first is from the mind of the designer onto paper by making sketches. The second is from these sketches to engineering drawings. The third advancement is from the drawing board to the wonder of a wholly completed bridge. It’s the first advancement that will be my focus here. During the first advancement, an engineer must hold multiple visions of the bridge in his mind’s eye. These are sometimes described as ‘a four-fold vision of the project, simultaneously considering issues of structural form, mathematical analysis, construction methods, and the relationship of the structure to the site.’ (1) Personally, I have renamed and reordered these to reflect my experience of concept development with the Te Rewa Rewa Bridge.

I think all these practices need to stand up to scrutiny, whether they are mainstream or alternative. My friend had been to a talk by someone from a well- regarded supplement range. The gist of his talk was the simple idea that ‘we are what we eat’ and that we have such poor diets we need to take supple- ments. My friend was regurgitating this for me and I found it a bit lame. I asked her if she had a good diet or whether she subsisted on mainly takeaways and highly processed foods and she admitted she didn’t. I made the point that many of us, in fact, eat better than our parents and especially our grandparents. A choice and range of foods, produced in many differ- ent ways, is available to most average income families today (though with the recession biting choices are diminishing, I admit).
