@Crankie82 1) well-spotted!
2) Bike infrastructure still woefully inadequate.
3) I'll be lobbying hard for this. Not all level crossing removals have been so lucky.
4) Glad you asked. There's room for cars and bikes. RACV wants dedicated bike lane on Sydney Rd. Parking to go behind shops.

@Crankie82 Inner suburbs and the CBD are choking on cars. We drive from one traffic jam to the next. Urban and transport planners say we've reached "peak car". google.com/amp/s/theconve…

@Crankie82 Even a meteorologist has complied this list of cities removing/reducing cars in favour of active transport. theweathernetwork.com/news/articles/…

@Crankie82 Active transport (cycling and walking) improves health and air quality by taking us out of our cars.theconversation.com/cycling-to-wor…

@Crankie82 So I respectfully suggest we can make a bit more room in #Brunswick for the growing number who want to ride to the shops, to work. timread.org.au/issues/sydney-…
