Now, I know what you're all thinking, but who hasn't accidentally done a Sieg Heil on their first day in government?

12pm Collins St. Almost the busiest shopping day of the year. But sure, an elector poll is needed to save parking #politas

Opponents of the Collins St bike lane trial have launched their online petition calling for a Council-funded public meeting. But change dot org doesn’t capture enough information for this type of petition, so all the current signatures are likely invalid #politas

Amsterdam’s plan to remove 11,200 parking spaces from its streets by the end of 2025 is even more inspiring when we realize the kind of people-places that are possible where cars used to be. Example — #Amsterdam’s Elandsgracht between 2014 & 2019, via @schlijper’s great pics.

“It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me, it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them." — Mayor of Pontevedra, Spain

This Spanish city centre has been car-free for 20+years. 12k people have moved into the centre since the ban. The Mayor says vehicles don’t have more right to public space than people — & he’s been re-elected 4 times since banning cars. Pontevedra via @WEF
