minus-squaresem@piefed.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29·1 day agoLooks like the judge is reversing it based on nothing but carbrain, calling the bike lane “arbitrary” and “capricious”. Looks like this whole court is out of order.

minus-squaresem@piefed.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·18 hours agoAh I didn’t see that part, thank you. Yeah the judge doesn’t sound so wrong any more. I guess it depends on if DOT actually violated the law or the judge is ruling on a stretch. I wish had more details.

minus-squarewatson@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down3·1 day agoI’m pretty sure there’s gonna be an appeal. The judge gave 30 days before the order must be executed. He also denied all of the other claims. This is not a ruling that should be difficult to get reversed on appeal
