Car(e)free rides Like recently, the Moreland Council has approved a trail closure for John Street, Brunswick East. The main purpose of this project is to determine if this is an acceptable method of protecting these local streets from cut through traffic and thus improve pedestrian and cycling movements along this street. Which is great news for us cyclists!
Furthermore, they have currently approved the bike lane trail on Sydney Road, Brunswick. If you didn’t already know, Sydney Road is the longest shopping strip in the southern hemisphere. By redesigning the roads to include separate bicycle lanes, the council is ensuring safer roads and the need for behaviour change and mode shift of people to drive less and use sustainable transport. The need to create the shopping strip as a vibrant and pleasant space for pedestrians, cyclists and people to visit and conduct their business.
