@staywider @bicycle_network @BicycleTasmania @ChrisMinnsMP U been asleep? Construction due to start this year. NIMBYs vanquished. Anyway, off topic. E-bikes rule as far as reducing emissions, 10x better than e-cars.
@bicycle_network @BicycleTasmania How about NSW government of @ChrisMinnsMP gets a ramp built on the northern side of #sydneyharbourbridge. First world city making bike riders carry bicycles up and down stairs to be able to ride over the harbour.

Midtown Baby. About to make Mornings from Hobart. And heating things up from 9am when all the candidates for the Leg-Co race in Hobart come say g’day and debate each other. Drop in or listen in from 8:30am. #politas
themercury.com.au/news/tasmania/… Roads are one of the biggest property assets. Proper planning for road space allocation and priority is needed. I think the criticisms are baseless, but like anything, there are trade-offs on ensuring access. Parking, arguably, is still too high. #politas
'Cycling is fun and games, but we simply need cars to get our groceries!!1!' 🇳🇱 Dutch guy: "Hold my @Grolsch🍺. Literally"
Vancouver’s Seawall is arguably our best public amenity, a wonderful linear people-place, and a fantastic resource for recreation/public health…but it’s also a busy transportation route. We use it a lot to transport our kids to clubs & classes, taking vehicle trips off streets.
@Ryan_Posselt @BicycleTasmania @cityofhobarttas @AnnaReyno That makes it a bit better (cars scare all, including drivers), but I guess I agree with this @hobartstreets post hobartstreets.au/bike-lanes-for… 😁like I want Hobart to already be amazing in this but we're just starting out so I'll accept trialling as progress & hope good multiplies🔜🤞
@Ryan_Posselt @BicycleTasmania @cityofhobarttas @AnnaReyno @hobartstreets Fabulous, looking forward to it! Intersections are a massive (or, small but integral) missing link
Half of business owners on this #Toronto street estimated that more than 25% of their customers arrived by car. In fact, it was 4%. And the % for those who walked or cycled? 72%. Retailers routinely overestimate the # of “car customers.” Via @carltonreid forbes.com/sites/carltonr…
@BicycleTasmania @cityofhobarttas @Ryan_Posselt @AnnaReyno Other cities like Sydney have stopped using large sections of green paint because it wears away easily and provides less grip. A green line inside the white line would be a better choice.
@boronialinquest @BicycleTasmania @cityofhobarttas @AnnaReyno Yes they are flexible, but there is a row of parking that further separates cyclists from traffic.
@BicycleTasmania @cityofhobarttas @Ryan_Posselt @AnnaReyno Are those bollards the plastic paddle pop ones? (in other cities it wouldn't be all-ages-abilities safe, but in this one at least the trial means something because it's the first🥲) 🙏 x.com/worldbollard/s…

Did you know Hobart households spend an average of $408.55 on transport/week? $408/week - the highest proportion of household income of any major Australian city #politas start investing in public transport already! 🚉⛴️ If you live in Hobart municipality try walking/riding
