@Tonyhobson19 @IrishmanAboard I would probably retreat now if I was you.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

You had one job mate.

@jonobri The side street argument was nonsense. Its very easy to monitor and cut the head off that snake. Was fearmongering at its finest.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

@jonobri We are literally talking about a wonderful outcome versus listening to half of another song on your car radio before you get home.

@AlphaLima783447 @Boenau Yes its a known fact that cities become more walkable with protected bike lanes too. People love the buffer between walking and general traffic and projects often go hand in hand to improve both, especially at side roads where turns often become much slower and safer for all.

@gunnershangout @footy_road What a simpleton

[Jimmy @doclangers]

@jamanjeval @Boenau Yeah, shitloads do it every day.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

@jamanjeval @Boenau That weather myth is constantly being debunked. Just visit Toronto, Amsterdam, London etc

@TkToTheHandFFS For who? Concrete enthusiasts?

[Jimmy @doclangers]

Poured a lot of heart and soul into this project. Would be nice if this information kick starts the conversation again in the future.

Plans for Kerford Rd have been obtained under FOI, and it looks beautiful

@KDCunliffe wow

@declanmartin75 @MelbOnTransit We did a school street near here in February and it vastly reduced the traffic here. Was a great knock on effect.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

Look at this. Brand new.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

@declanmartin75 @MelbOnTransit It’s on a rat run too. It’s tight so anything bigger than a car would have to turn over it. For me you just raise the side road but I appreciate that’s a cost. Also just make it exit or entry only. Even better close it.

[Jimmy @doclangers]

@MelbOnTransit @PierreVairo The tactile paving in the middle is of interest. My question is that if someone with a vision impairment starts to cross and feels the tactile, what should they do?
A. Stand in the middle and hope for the best
B. Keep crossing and hope for the best
