There is going to be a rally before the Yarra council meeting outside the Richmond Townhall to support the Elizabeth St bike lanes.

" Meet us at 6pm on Tuesday 8 April 2025 on the Richmond Town Hall steps for a rally supporting safe cycling infrastructure & our petition! Residents will speak about protecting these much loved lanes, our petition being tabled at this council meeting and how we love safe, wide bike lanes. "

An interesting little change to the bike lane on Ireland St in West Melbourne.

They've switched the painted bike lane so that it starts on the right. This is because all car traffic here can only turn left whereas almost all bicycle traffic is going to turn right or head straight on.

A similar thing exists on Canning St in Carlton when crossing Alexandra Pde.

Bike lane on sidewalk in North Philly neighborhood draws mixed reactions

"On Erie Avenue between Broad Street and Old York Road, a bike lane is currently on the sidewalk rather than the street...Members of the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia said you’ll eventually see more bike lanes on sidewalks around the city. "

Ew, I don't like that much. Take the space away from cars, not pedestrians!

Our politicians keep telling us what we want or don't want, but when it comes down to it, most people know that cities need to be more green.

Good for you, Hobart, following similar recent stories in Paris and Vancouver.

A classic cycling situation. A sign that says there is a cycleway, but no cycle way to be seen.

We eventually realised that the two way cycleway mentioned was the shoulder of the road which had some mid protections later on.

A photo of the road shoulder further down. The shoulder disappears but the cycleway continues on the other side of the road. The speed limit is 80km/h

“Last week, Secretary Duffy directed staff to start the process of clawing back millions in discretionary dollars for #bikelanes. How will he spend it instead?”
“If that means less discretionary money for great #safety projects now, that doesn't bode well for a more holistic approach to #safety in the next surface #transportation reauthorization bill”
