  3. The Grattan Institute says as much as 140k more homes could be built across Melbourne and Sydney if parking requirements were abolished and that "upwards of 40% of car parks were left empty each night in apartments" across three major Australian capitals.

  9. I recently spoke to the Canberra Times about Living Streets Canberra's disappointment regarding the delayed introduction of fees for footpath closures. The government delayed the fees after being lobbied by the ACT Property Council.

  13. My problem with this is if it would actually get used. What I know from pedestrian activity is, pedestrians will find the easiest, quickest and most convenient way to walk. I would expect this to be especially true of teenagers.

    So if we built a pedestrian bridge, would it get used, or would students just dash across the road because it was more convenient for them.

  14. Andrew Barr's office advised me a week ago that Tara Cheyne's office is looking into the situation at Botanical Turner. I haven't heard anything yet, so I have sent a follow up email to her office this morning.

    The issue is ongoing at the site.

  15. It is no wonder why there is such distrust with Fix My Street in Canberra.

    I had raised a safety concern regarding the bollards on City Walk at Garema Place, as construction workers have been leaving the bollards out with no cover, leaving a big hole in the ground.

    On Wednesday, TCCS closed my report noting "Bollard Cover replaced". But today I visited the area. Again, the bollard is out, and there is still no cover for the hole.

  16. Today I am an example of why it is important that attention is brought to our walking environments. I'm at TCH tonight, waiting for xray of my left arm. Happened at work. Two paths not quite meeting level.
