Popularity of pedestrians and san franciscans, visitors attracted to the San Francisco waterfront on the embarcadaro. I think for many in the public, they come to the promenade and see that as this grand boulevard sidewalk along the water side of the properties, and they consider the sidewalk and they are surprised and conflicted by the fact that it is a shared facility with bike access and other wheeled vehicles that share access to that promenade.

And the port has never changed the formal status of the embarcadaro promenade so that even though it reads as a sidewalk, it really still has those functions. While we do have class 2 bike lanes

While we do have class 2 bike lanes on the east and the west sides of the embarcadaro, i think the popularity of bicycling and the success of the citys transit first policy and our efforts to advance alternate transportation modes is such

Belgium media reporting that this man in the hat and the light colored jacket at the airport before those bombings is, in fact, abrini, captured a short time ago, along with osama krayem, accused of having a quote unquote operational role in the brussels attacks. Lots of pieces to throw at you. Well have it all together and understand it as we go to brussels. Cnn journalist kelly morgan is standing by with more. Lets begin with the significance of this abrini arrest. What do we know about him . Its extraordinary, big fish for the belgian authorities to have this man in custody.
