Help us book this huge billboard! The Smith & Gertrude Street corner is one of the busiest in our neighbourhood, and we’ve been offered a great rate to book it out for the final weeks of our council campaign. Can you chip in to help make it happen? contact-vic.greens.org.au/ci…

Walking around Chinatown in Sydney, it's pretty obvious that if Melbourne wanted to start trialling pedestrianisation of more streets, Little Bourke between Swanston and Exhibition would be perfect and would really open up the district.

That's it for this evening, two developments over 6 storeys approved or recommended to be approved unanimously (something of a rarity here), including dozens of social homes. A good night for housing and good on council!

Pleased to sponsor this community petition over poor air quality at Southern Cross station. There are serious concerns over nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels which could threaten the health of workers, commuters, and local residents. parliament.vic.gov.au/get-in…

It’s time for Hobart and our residents to start saying Yes. Yes to development, change, and paradigm shifts that lay the groundwork for an abundance of housing. Hence, @YIMBYHobart #politas

Great to see Australia Institute talking more about how messed up transport is in this country
Australia Institute (@TheAusInstitute) profile pictureAustralia Institute@TheAusInstitute22 Jul 2024
Our research found that tax breaks for luxury utes cost Australians $250 million in 2023. Large vehicles impose considerable costs on society, from their higher carbon emissions & rates of road damage to serious safety concerns. #auspol #climate

new 40k limit for Hopkins St Footscray BikeWest is pleased that our advocacy (alongside others) has encouraged VicRoads to make this important route safer for riders & walkers alike. - BikeWest won't rest until there are protected bike lanes on this road. #francocozzolink

For the first time in a while, I’m in Melbourne today. Poncing around dressed all in black like I own the place, absolutely freezing and clutching a long macchiato, I can’t stop smiling. This is my kind of place. I’d forgotten how much I enjoy coming here.
A long macchiato in hand at the intersection of Collins and Swanston Streets Melbourne. With a tram of course.

why are bots always porn and crypto scams? why can't some be like, "hey, have you thought about how car dependency has made it harder to own a home in a walkable neighborhood? link in bio for more info"

A major axis in Lyon, rue Garibaldi was built in the 1960s as an eight-lane urban highway to facilitate car traffic in the center. In 2010, it began a metamorphasis into a lush and leafy multi-modal corridor, with dedicated bus and cycle lanes, and space for walking and seating. – at Lyon, France

My piece in @BrunswickVoice on how opposing safe streets is class warfare against marginalised communities - elderly ppl, kids, ppl with disabilities and trans and non-binary ppl. Their bodies are sacrificed for the convenience of a few drivers 👇 brunswickvoice.com.au/making…
Opinion: Making our streets safer is a class issue, but not in the way you might think

When it comes to road safety, decision-makers need to decide whose side they are on, writes James Conlan.
