Problem being that even moderate active transport initiatives are weaponised by unintentional ignorance &/or those more invested in wedge politics. Possible strategy is bringing people along then elect better leaders. By the way, we're far away from ever giving up in Yarra.
ABC News Australia@news.abc.net.au · 4mo agoVictoria spends billions each year on transport infrastructure. Dedicating just 5% to Strategic Cycling Corridors would give everyone more choice on how they get around school, work & shops.

Strategic Cycling Corridor
Ask your local MP to support dedicated funding for Strategic Cycling Corridors. It's only going to take 5 cents in the transport dollar!

Representatives from 'no campaign' keep repeating misinformation that Wellington Street in Clifton Hill & Collingwood will be 100% closed to through traffic. Possible misunderstanding about modal filters + extra NELA traffic not on their radar?

In 2026 it's highly likely that residents in Abbotsford, Richmond, Collingwood, Carlton & Fitzroy & Victoria Park would be angry & alarmed if existing inner north modal filters were ever suggested to be removed: streets-alive-yarra.org/modal-filters/

Amazing when residents & business involved with Wellington Street Stages 1 & 2 back in 2018 wouldn't want these changes reversed now in 2026. To compare, Option 1 for Stage 3 & 4 is modal filters, a much lighter treatment than these seperated lanes: youtu.be/2gWyRoNdRgo?...
