First world problem perhaps but I have 6 mins until my train gets here. Had a crap nights sleep and am desperate for a coffee. Maybe next time.

I always enter at these doors as it’s one of the very few spots I can actually put my bike. I understand I won’t have priority over someone in a scooter or wheelchair but I find this pretty silly. Either provide for bikes or get rid of silly signs.
In a taxi from Adelaide airport and within 2 mins have seen sharrows on a road and now the old peak hour painted bike lane. At least the have Frome Street!
Project I worked on for quite some time. Hopefully will come back life sooner rather than later.

Kids have it too easy these days with those boosts. In my day the only way to get the boost was the three tap power slide around a corner.
yep

Delighted to see amazing new bike infrastructure in my area this morning. 50kph speed limit and several thousand vehicles use this street every day. 😐
Cycling home from and appointment.
No excuse for this lack of connection
Well he only nearly too me out. If it was took it would have been a lot worse 🤣
Walking to the station and a guy just came way too fast out of his driveway and nearly too me out.
It’s ok though, he waved his hand apologetically.
Excited that I set the wheels in motion for this over a year ago and now it is actually happening next week.
Cheap, cheerful, effective
Just noticed a pretty terrifying looking alien in my picture!
This looked very steep to me when I was out there. Be some speeds coming down that bridge.
What we waiting for? Unleash the hounds!!!!
Just in Chicago at the moment. Piecemeal is the only way I can describe the cycling infrastructure. A million miles off all ages and abilities, that’s for sure. This is one of the better bits.
Terrifying
Raygun walked so Kylian Mbappe could run 😆
Down in G-town yesterday. My first look at Malop Street. I like the trees, seating, wide footpaths. Bike lane and consideration for loading and access for all. Nice big pram without sharp level difference where people need them. Am sure there is the odd unwanted interaction but a decent job.
Just popped out to edithvale for an evening out with a few lads. Literally nowhere to park my bike near the pub. Very frustrating.
“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars… Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” #VisionZero www.theguardian.com/world/2020/m...
This is from a guidance document recently released. Personally I think there is way too much unnecessary clutter in this.
First bus stop bypass I ever designed back when I was TfL. Plumstead Road in London. You may remember this one. @willnorman.co.uk
Starting to see a few in oz now. Lots of OTT discussions about lines and signs though.
A car is generally 1.9m wide (but getting bigger) There is 3.3m of space here. They is definitely going to be pressure on the rider to shift over hard against the separator.
I get the intent of slowing the merge down but I just can't get my head around sharing the lane on the inside like that when there are other options. I would wager on the unsignalised version, most the time you don't even need a left turn lane
Must admit every time I see this pop up in a design guide it terrifies me. Personally I couldn't design something that pins a rider into a lane whilst someone gets annoyed behind them. Its asking for intimidation or attempts to boot up the inside regardless of signage and space.
