  1. The Rainbow Bridge finally opened this morning.
    The bridge provides a connection between Moonee Ponds Creek and North Melbourne along Dynon Rd.

    The 901 bus route in #melboune is endless entertainment with the characters that get on

  3. Daytime maximums are going up this week but the mornings are absolutely getting chillier. #Melboune

  4. It wasn't just disrespect, it was racism. Let this day not just be a reflection of those who served, but a day to have a conversation about racism.

    Indigenous Australians served alongside non indigenous Australians in a time of no rights, and were not looked after on their return.

  5. Every few months there is an article in the ABC about some missing infrastructure in the 'growth areas'. They never seem to address that we've knowingly grown populations in areas without infrastructure instead of growing populations in areas where there is already infrastructure.

    We're building houses in the middle of nowhere and only later being surprised that these houses also need schools, trains, libraries, shops, cafes , roads and jobs.

    We should be growing the areas that already have infrastructure

  6. One year ago today, a Comeng set crosses the tram square at Glen Huntly Road on Melbourne's Frankston line.

    One week ago this line reopened after almost a two month shutdown to remove this level crossing, and the nearby Neerim Road. The rail line now runs below Glen Huntly Road. The small signal box (to the left of the picture) has been abolished and dismantled.

  7. On this day in 2014, tram W8.946 in Docklands Drive on a City Circle service.

    Tram 946 started life as an SW6 class in 1943. In 2013, it was converted to a W8 class to run on Melbourne's route 35 City Circle tourist line.

  8. On this day in 2015, I travelled behind locomotive N474 on a Warrnambool service from Tarneit in Melbourne's west to Waurn Ponds in Geelong.

  10. Hey #melboune / #victoria folks,

    What is the responsibility of property agents and being contactable?

    Family member has water pissing down their wall when it rains and only has an email address, otherwise it's call SES or a plumber, neither of which seems appropriate.

  11. My favourite pair of earrings I’ve made today. A wirework arch with triplet bead strands hanging below in blue and green tones.

  13. Still waiting. At what point do we decide to just knock the whole bloody #Melboune #airport down and start again?

  14. Is it just me or are there an insane number of mosquitoes around? Is this a La Niña thing? I’m getting eaten alive. #Melboune

  15. A beautiful, sunny day in Melbourne!

    Bourke Street is one of the most popular places in the city. Lots of places to sit, excellent transport access, enough shade and plenty of street activity.

    “A good city is like a good party – people stay longer than really necessary because they are enjoying themselves.” (Jan Gehl)

  16. When we humans, god species and accidental geoengineers turn our attention away from the quiet places, nature returns to perform acts of rebellion against our civilization.

    Between the freeway and off ramps of #Melboune CityLink, at the junction of Racecourse Rd such acts of violence against concrete and steel are in play.

    A re-wilding is taking place.

    Native and invasive species are fashioning a new ecosystem. I sit and listen to the birds, witness pollinators and discern the Earth's acts of rebellion.

    Grieve for the world that was.

    Welcome the new nature.

    Soon it will swallow our cities.

    The earth abides.

  17. You can certainly see why the bicycle lane stops before this intersection, clearly not enough space for a bicycle lane. #Melboune #Carlton #bicycles

  18. I assume this is supposed to be bicycle parking, but the sign seems to indicate it's not.

    The other thing that indicates this isn't bicycle parking is that you'd need a bicycle to get from here to anywhere you'd want to be.
