"Whoever wins the election, the task of tackling clogged roads, falling public transport use post-Covid and easing growing pains as Sydney expands is immense."

Cheapest and quickest fix? Bike lanes.
Top cities the world spending their $$$ on? Bike lanes.
Money saved for us? 🚲

@Jay_Pitter I've always referred to myself as a (bike) commuter because I usually ride fot transport not recreation. If you want to break it down further: https://t.co/rSZJLOolxe

@BrentToderian Don't worry, it doesn't take long. We have very few cases here in Australia and life is close to the "old" normal. Yesterday I was at a playground similar to this and it was fine. I catch the rain to and from work every day, few people wear masks.

@martynschmoll @GreenTechVoyage @NVanDistrict Completely agree with you @martynschmoll , however banning Christmas lights to get there is a bit like banning plastic straws to end plastic waste :-) maybe this will start the real conversation though :-)

I'd love to try some of those Johnny cakes! Looking forward to the day native foods are mainstream and tourists come from all over the world to taste them!

@fabulavancouver some of the most innovative companies of the 21st century were started during the last great recession - Airbnb, Uber, Whatsapp, Instagram to name a few. I remain optimistic we will see similar leaps come out of 2020, even if we can't see the fruit of those efforts just yet.

@mrbenjaminlaw When I was a child, a CD player or a working car (esp those super lux cars *with* a CD player). These days it's owning your home 😂

@PhilipThalis Whaaaaaa!! I need this in my life! Where do we order/ pre-order?

[Simina Simaki @cigazze]

@xruiztru @onlmaps Hehe that looks more like BeNeDe to me (I know that's not a region, but Luxembourg doesn't seem to have its head in ther game 😂)

[Simina Simaki @cigazze]

Yaaaaay! The powerhouse will stay in Ultimo AND expand to Parramatta! Best outcome! But... worst process!! https://t.co/jTUmjCvYCi

Sydney never disappoints, but is even more beautiful after the rain. Some beautiful streets from this morning's wander. #sydney #surryhills #aftertherain https://t.co/4E0wwsCZJW

They say necessity is the mother of invention and it looks like African countries are inventing rapidly and incredibly well. I definitely need to keep a closer eye on innovations coming out of Africa across the board! https://t.co/U2QF72f6u4
