@leeland @PhilipThalis And she had the last laugh on Duncan Gay’s removal of the College St bike path.

@leeland @PhilipThalis Indefatigable is a good choice. Much to be proud of. Lugged this 487p door stopper home from a Town Hall Clover Fest a few years ago.

Vale Donald Shoup.

[Works in Progress @WorksInProgMag]

Donald Shoup found a better way: parking benefit districts.

If you take parking revenue and invest it in local improvements like street trees, repaved sidewalks, and street sweeping, locals will not just support pricing curb parking–they will demand it.

@retrobike_c16 @BicycleAdagio Not dead yet. Need to get RUSA implemented. https://t.co/4UyFWK1pEM

@RobbertBlunt @BicycleAdagio Depends how long the block is! Also on the demand. You’d want more at a transit interchange or department store, east street etc.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@dpschramm @BicycleAdagio In a long block you need some every say 100 m or so. Eventually some car parking has to go. Govt RUSA policy already says space should allocated to pedestrians, bicycles, buses, then moving cars, car parking last.

@wtf_yyj @fietsprofessor Any number of images of SUVs rolling over! A little bump will do it.

@retrobinkie @BerkeleyEve @cityaestheticss Pump it into the wall cavities! Wool batts in the roof space.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@cityaestheticss @criticalurban Put in a bike path! This sort of road diet only good for low traffic volumes and 30 K speed limits.

@Perowinger94 @copenhenken Nothing more recent?

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@blademan1627044 @but_cyclists Whatever works for you. People get sweaty on the tube too or in a hot car.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@JohnWil45304495 @but_cyclists Don’t wait until they are going threadbare! National #ReplaceyourNicksDay is coming up.

@tz5qrqk2pv @BenPhillips_ANU And developers are happy to keep it that way.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@fictillius Works quite well.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@fictillius It was going to be a creative arts centre, bike delivery hub, garden centre and lots more a few years ago. What happened?

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@PhilipThalis @walksydney1 @cityofsydney These so close to a corner on path edge are a pedal catcher. Don’t conform to standards about objects close to paths. City of Sydney won’t budge.

@PhilipThalis I’ll be watching from the Kauri front window.

[Robert Moore.fractalsky.bsky.social @Fractal10]

@dzl1 @AdamBandt Yep.
