This old #MasonryArtch #bridge was especially widened by having a #SharedPath attached to it so that there’s a wall between busy motor traffic lanes and #cyclists and #pedestrians. I believe this work won an award for #CyclingInfrastructure.

“Say Hi if you walk or cycle past us at Galada Tamboore at Ned Kelly Bridge today. We don’t bite. We are doing the recreational count for Bicycle Network 9am-12pm at this location. Cyclists, walkers, dog walkers, stroller walkers, scooters, e-bikes, kangaroos. We have our four eyes assisting Dad doing the count.” - Juliet and Indiana Jones 🐶🐶

We were taught from a very young age (would have been the late 70's, early 80's 😮) to watch the drivers at an uncontrolled pedestrian crossing, and to make sure that they have seen you AND are going to stop before you step into the road.

I am a strong advocate for safe roads, footpaths and shared paths - AND I believe in taking precautions for maintaining safety such as this.

When did such teaching stop happening?? 🤔

I found out today that the city plans on taking away street parking, and about 8’ of my front yard and driveway to turn the street into a boulevard with separate sidewalks and bike lanes. As a cyclist, I’m all for safe bike lanes, but why can’t they put in a shared use path instead? Then they wouldn’t be destroying our yards and getting rid of parking needed for homes and independent small businesses along this street. Not to mention that they are no longer closing down the off-ramps so traffic will be as heavy as ever, resulting in gridlock right outside my bedroom window. And how will the fire trucks navigate the narrower lanes? My pollinator garden would be paved over and my house would be right up against the street. Ugh. @waterlooregion #CityLiving #BikeLanes #SharedPath #SharedUsePath

On the way to #Avondale, saw the #mural that is in progress. I could see the outline of a tūī, a dragonfly and a pīwakawaka about to be painted. #publicart is the best! #art #cycleway #sharedpath
