If you prioritize cars, u get more cars. If you prioritize walking, biking & transit-riding, u get more walking, biking & transit-riding. This isn’t hard. But here’s the key — if you prioritize cars, u get everyone trying to drive, & that fails for everyone, INCLUDING DRIVERS.

Our submission on Beaches Tollway EIS is here: aptnsw.org.au/documents/beac…
Paris is to remove HALF of its 140,000 car parking spaces (yes, eliminate 70,000 car street parking), led by mayor @Anne_Hidalgo, to make the city more pedestrian- and cyclist-friendly. #BuildBackBetter is not about words; it's Vision + Action, Action... itsinternational.com/its3/ne…

“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in #Copenhagen?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure — bicycling.” — @mortenkabell

Has Minister not been on a Freshwater class Sydney ferry on a summer weekend? We need the capacity. Bad move to remove them from service.

Why rip up rail lines for a “rail trail”? Let’s think dual purpose: bikes alongside tracks at safe distance, and renewed rail services. Opens up option to ride one way on train and return using pedal power.

Cycle trails are great, but not a good excuse to rip up train tracks.

Please sign this petition - We want public rail in the Northern Rivers. If the rail goes we will have no hope. It is a disgrace. Lets get less cars and hopefully trucks off the roads. Join me in supporting the Don’t rip up our rail Campaign abigailboyd.good.do/dontripu…

We've been running this petition for a long time now and it would be great to get to 1000 signatures. Lifts have been promised but we've been told to wait until 2023. #nswpol @walksydney1 change.org/p/lift-erko
