@victoriawalks @cityofmelbourne This is illegal. My understanding is that razor wire or similar adjacent to a street requires a permit and barbed wire built into the fence is at least 2 metres above street level.

@AAisenberg I’m avoiding all media regarding the ITS. So many frustrating, ill informed comments.

#LiveableCities Conference alert. On Monday Arup experts - Justin Madden, Tessa Colclough, Amy Child, Rob Turk and Elisa McLennan - discuss how a child-friendly approach to urban planning is vital to creating inclusive cities that work better for everyone. https://t.co/8JQkJQ1qD8

[Arup Australasia @ArupAustralasia]

Many of the core challenges of urban childhoods relate to transport, mobility and access. Hear from Amy Child at the #LiveableCities Conference tomorrow discuss how a child getting around a city independently is a strong indicator of how a city is performing.

@TransitDork Let’s start a countdown to it being changed.....never I fear!

William Barak was an influential spokesman for Aboriginal social justice and an important informant on Wurundjeri cultural lore. @ptv_official time to spell his name right?
