I wrote an analysis of the City of Sydney's Bicycle contraflow streets, using OpenStreetMap data and Overpass Turbo!
Any suggestions or corrections are much appreciated.

Here's an OpenStreetMap query that returns all oneway streets where bikes are explicitly allowed as contraflow, and where the contraflow is a painted green lane on the side. Works anywhere in the world, just click run!

There's a number in Redfern in Sydney - here's some examples visually: https://safecyclingmap.com/#17.6/-33.89181/151.201507
I think City of Sydney proposed making all 1 way lanes contraflow by default. I'm not sure if it was part of this piece of work or something else: https://www.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/improving-streets-public-spaces/improving-contraflow-lanes-in-sydney

How do you know if congestion management is working? Comparing the raw travel times plus congestion patterns data along a Boston corridor showed a decrease in #traffic and led to suspending the #contraflow system for some time in 2020.
