The "safety" fencing at the new Hyde St path is going well 🙄
I've copied these pics from someone who ride there today.

Unlike some other projects, the #WestGateTunnel was never taken to an election. In 2014 Labor proposed the far more modest "WestGate Distributor" - but dumped it in 2015 for the bigger Transurban WGT proposal. Now costing billions in State funding... and it'll induce traffic, not fix it. #Melbourne

Bridges under construction for the WestGate “Tunnel” project

A century of building new roads hasn’t fixed traffic yet… but I’m sure this one will be different. #Melbourne #WestGateTunnel
