  1. E-bike and e-scooter share scheme: the City of Port Phillip is running a trial of corrals for parking share bikes and scooters. This is a strategy to get them *off* the footpaths, where they create hazards for pedestrians. There is one already operating near the Metro supermarket on Fitzroy St, pictured. We're looking for suggestions of other places for them to go--- places where you see many bikes and scooters blocking the footpath. Where would you like to see corrals? #CityOfPortPhillip #melbourne #cycling

    noise from constant expansion
    looming towers

    Stop calling data storage “cloud” storage. This is the reality.
    Stop calling it artificial intelligence - its a large language model built on theft

  3. The St Kilda Rd bike lanes are often filled with leaves. Many cleaning requests submitted to #SnapSendSolve. I wonder if this will spur the #CityOfMelbourne and #CityOfPortPhillip to add them to the regular sweeping schedule?

  6. On Tuesday Port Phillip Bicycle Users Group went for a ride with new Port Phillip councillors Cr Libby Buckingham and Cr Justin Halliday. We looked at some dodgy infrastructure that needs improving, like the unprotected lanes on St Kilda Rd over the hill; and some excellent new facilities, like the protected lanes north of the junction, and the pocket park outside St Kilda Primary School.
    Thanks Crs Buckingham and Halliday! We wish you well in your term on Council.

  7. We (Port Philip Bicycle Users Group) will be taking some of our new councillors on a bike ride around Balaclava tomorrow morning. If you live, work, or shop in Balaclava come along and chat about the opportunities for improving our city. Meet at 9:15 Tuesday 18th March on the lawn in front of St Kilda Town Hall.

  8. The Elwood community has been asking for a safe crossing on Glen Huntly Road for 15 years.

    We took the local councillors to look at the crossing in 2018. It would allow kids to safety reach the school grounds out of hours when the crossing supervisors attend, and help all users of the popular canal path.

  9. Do you ride with parcels, with groceries, to drop your kids off, or while being elderly, infirm or disabled? Your City of Port Phillip councillors might not know that you even exist--- they claimed none of these things were possible! Please help educate them--- send us an action photo, or tag us in on social media. #cycling #melbourne #naarm #CityOfPortPhillip #StKilda #SafeInkerman
