If you are heading back into the city this week - we have installed many new protected bike lanes to make your journey safer. 🚴🚴‍♀️👇

We’re installing more than 500 meters of new protected bike lanes each week. Here is a video of Queensbridge street which shows how these protected lanes make a real difference for cyclists. This is part of our plan to fast-track 40km of new bike lanes over two years.

Fantastic to see this happening on Exhibition St.
City of Melbourne (@cityofmelbourne) profile pictureCity of Melbourne@cityofmelbourne25 Oct 2020
Exhibition Street is a missing link in our bike network, with no continuous lane to keep riders safe. 🚴🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️That’s why we are starting construction on 900m of protected bike lanes between Flinders and Bourke Street this month. melbourne.vic.gov.au/news-an…

This new cut-through on Park Street is a result of #BikeSpot2020. Aiming to ease congestion at the signalised crossing on the Capital City Trail at Nicholson Street. Great work @YarraCouncil! @Crowd_Spot @amygillettfdn @yarrabike @MorelandBUG

Think protected bike infrastructure doesn’t make a huge difference? I’m an experienced & confident bike rider, & there’s no way I would bike Toronto’s Danforth Ave in this”before” scenario. I would take my little boy into the “after” scenario. Via @mkapral nitter.gq/mkapral/status/1296884…

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study. This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for the choice. #citymakingmath
