People keep talking about how #DriverlessCars will mean less space needed for parking. That’s actually debatable depending on the details.

But there are already transportation options that would save huge amounts of space currently used for parking.

Walking, biking & transit.

Keep an eye out for this complete galah on the road today.

In the late 1990s, @MTL_Ville staff asked @VeloQuebec to organize a mass participation bike ride to complement their cycle track-building efforts.

Last night, over 15,000 Montrealers took to the open streets of their city for the 19th annual #TourLaNuit.

Currently the City of Edinburgh Council is committing 10% of its transport budget to #cycling, a first for a UK city, as well as introducing 20mph speed limits across a large area - @kim_hardingcelebrates progress via @guardian https://t.co/UpMGIHJCKA

Public Transport Authority confirms it will not impose a surcharge on passengers travelling to Perth Airport when the Forrestfield Airport rail line opens. https://t.co/VeCYrgM0ms

Shades of Moscow on the Yarra. Melbourne's Metro station designs evoke Moscow's most beautiful metro stops (with a biphilic design bent). Wonderful to see growing civic pride around public transport. #planningmatters
