x.com/victoriawalks/… So relevant, as I read consultant reports using this term. Needless to say, I am unimpressed. Meanwhile, levels of car driving not highlighted as problem, incl in terms of exposure and Safe System approach (asked for). We so need to change our thinking. 😩
The streets belong to us! Kidical Mass Adelaide 2024 #cyclingjoy #KidicalMass @bicyclesa
@TKoutsantonisMP @DFIT_SA @RAAofSA Correction. Fitzroy Tce (to Braund Rd). Was too upset after then almost being mown down by P plater boy on next crossing (wombat). He didn't like me suggesting he should go back to learning (not knowing road rules), and then swore at me.
Yet again a driver ran a long red light at the ped-cyclist crossing on Park Tce. With 60km/h, this is a death scenario for a person on the crossing. @TKoutsantonisMP @DFIT_SA where's the Safe System? Should be 50km/h with Raised Safety Platforms, else not Safe System. @RAAofSA
@AdelaideMail Are we winning @MontagueStBridg ?
It is critical that public transport is in place as people move into new areas so people can choose public transport, rather than being forced to and habitualising driving (with increasing household car ownership) and mitigate congestion, commute time and liveability issues.
Urban sprawl is questionable urban planning and leads to long (driving) commute times - incompatible with the strategic objectives of increasing liveability, decarbonisation, social cohesion and health and wellbeing. @TKoutsantonisMP @NickChampionMP abc.net.au/news/2024-07-0…
Again driver failed to give way to me walking across ring road slip lane. Sign's been there over a year (against your own DIT guidelines) @TKoutsantonisMP @DFIT_SA and it is not a safe system. Sick to (hopefully not) death (or serious injury) of it. Accountability in safe system?
Patriot. RAM. Rogue. Then there’s Lekker. There’s something in a name, isn’t there? #wankpanzer
Collecting family Sunday night fish and chips by “small car” while a bloke needed his RAM apparently. #cyclingjoy #wankpanzer
I have seen a few Aus installations of secure cycle parking eg emicro by Stonnington but are there any cycle hangers in Australia? cyclehoop.com/product-catego…
Again, no pedestrian signals on a crossing of the 60km/h Adelaide ring road. It’s as though @DFIT_SA @TKoutsantonisMP don’t care or recognise that people walk/wheel and cycle (for transport). Left for week(s) if it were signals for motor vehicles? @Walking_SA @bicyclesa @RAAofSA
Depressing garage dominance may increase as wankpanzers are catered for. Am I missing something: no changes to cycle parking provision and quality? Bike Adelaide👏: recommendation for car parking offset funds to improve active travel infrastructure (thereby reducing driving).
Who thinks there is insufficient evidence to change currently high and minimum car parking rates, and not increase dispensations near PT/employment centres @NickChampionMP? Status quo to reduce emissions, increase liveability and wellbeing? 🤷♀️ @kinokofry @hulya_gilb
Nihola taxi trike Nantu Wama #parkrun set up! Was almost 30 degrees (heading for 40 today) so very much #cyclingjoy with the breeze on the downhill! #parkrunau #adelaidecycling #adelaide
Fewer lives lost, fewer serious injuries. As per South Australia's Road Safety Strategy, @DFIT_SA has a responsibility to create a safer road environment for all users. Who is being accountable for meeting targets to zero? @joe_szakacs @PMalinauskasMP @TKoutsantonisMP @RAAofSA
Another day, another major delay. Our speed limits aren't Safe System aligned. 50km/h is the critical speed for vehicle-vehicle side collisions. 50km/h (or less based on location) on urban arterial roads would reduce the likelihood + severity of crashes. Fewer significant delays.
@TKoutsantonisMP @PMalinauskasMP @alpsa So massive investment in active and public transport will feature in the next budget? Safe, attractive cycling networks (with integration with public transport) for significant mode shift needed to decarbonise transport (and for better urban, health, equity outcomes). @bicyclesa
We have to do more for the safety of people walking/wheeling and cycling. The only traffic signal for the city bound ped crossing on the ring road Park Tce- War Memorial Dr taken out last week. Still not replaced. Where’s the care? @DFIT_SA @TKoutsantonisMP ?
