No place in cities.

Tall corn flowering outside the Town Hall, reading @Library_Vic in the company of others, woman dancing at the tram stop, lunch time queues, many homeless people too. Life in our city, Melbourne.

[Henk Swarttouw @copenhenken]

Many SUV’s are too wide for existing European city streets. They have worse vision and are more deadly when crashing into pedestrians and cyclists and their tyres produce more small-particle pollution. All good reasons to limit their use in inner cities.

Swanston St almost kissing canopy shade (a la @BrentToderian) whereas Smith St searing. No trees. Tram passengers huddled in the shade of a shop.

In our new paper in @Transport_ELS, we interviewed 40 potential bike riders across Melbourne. We found need for a connected network of protected infrastructure and slow speeds (30km/h) to support more trips by bike.
