And as a bonus #cyclingInfrastructure post, there’s lots of work going on in the Northern Quarter too!

Global News BC: ‘Too dangerous’: Cyclists worry about safety during Ironworkers bridge project https://globalnews.ca/news/9870921/cyclists-safety-ironworkers-bridge-construction/ #globalnews #britishcolumbia #news #IronworkerBridgeconstruction #Cyclinginfrastructure #IronworkersBridge #Vancouvercycling #Vanouvercyclists #commutercycling #CyclingSafety #cyclinelanes #BCcyclists #Traffic

Mayor of #Ottawa:
"The debate over closing a specific stretch of Queen Elizabeth Driveway is not about whether or not the city supports active transportation. It’s about where and when are the best opportunities for it."

Me:
Summer is exactly the best time to convert roadways into active use routes.

Protected bike lanes with micro mobility options leading several hundred metres from the Eureka Tower in Melbourne (84 floors of residential apartments) across to:

- trams to South Melbourne beach
- National Gallery of Victoria
- Botanic Gardens (38 hectares)
- Arts Precinct
- free CBD trams connecting to major city & regional trains

Belgian artists invented surrealism and clearly the local councilman responsible for cycling infrastructure likes to continue the tradition. This prime example, obviously inspired by René Magritte, is located in the north of the country close to the enclave of Baarle-Nassau (another art work of the surrealists school). Luckily I only had to ride it for 200m.

RT @BenDurhamCAN: London's year-round bike lane maintenance is awesome. More cycling infrastructure, please!

Really glad to see the expansion of separated bike paths in Evanston. Unfortunately, some of the plan includes sharrows. I would love to see even more connections, increased traffic calming to get speeds below 20, and some neighborhoods or business districts without any automobile traffic. #evanston #cycling #CyclingInfrastructure https://evanstonroundtable.com/2023/01/03/area-cycling-network-slated-to-grow/

I was a bit stunned. We have been discussing this for years. We explain over and over again that people need a safe #cyclinginfrastructure in order to give up the car and use the bike.

And then the mayor, who is supposed to implement the central project for the #bicycleinfrastructure on behalf of the municipal council, questions it so completely in the budget meeting.

I am curious about the answer he is supposed to give tomorrow as to why it is taking so long.

It's #introduction time!
During the day I'm a software/game #programmer
I'm interested in anti #carDependency, #publicTransit and #cyclingInfrastructure

Another of my interests is #politics. I always try to understand opposing sides before taking a position and am always open for my opinion to be changed with good arguments.

I'm also an admin for the #Minecraft server Zedcraft, which is #Zedaph's Patreon server.

Interesting links in the thread.
Feel free to leave any questions you may have.
