@kyp92 I figured out why it’s called the ‘wave’ - it was a wave of road funding on a stacked area chart:

An interesting oddity - the TfNSW Queanbeyan station upgrade plan still describes the southbound direction (towards Canberra) as "to Cooma".
The last passenger train left Cooma in November 1988 and the last freight train in 1989!

I added an option to Better Intersections to see which intersections meet the target and recommended max pedestrian wait time in the City of Sydney’s draft walking strategy and action plan!

Just one more lane bro!
TfNSW opened Rozelle Interchange just over a week ago - one of the most complex underground motorway junctions in the world.
You guessed it - it's created new traffic and been front page news since!
The City of Sydney estimated $45B has been spent on the entire (privatised) motorway project known as Westconnex.
Followed all CASA rules (<250gm, visual line of sight, not near people, above empty park).

Have your say on improved connectivity for cyclists and pedestrians at Rozelle interchange.
Feedback form closes Friday 23 June 2023.

Transport for NSW has released Draft Road Network Performance Review Plans (RNPRPs) for the WestConnex M8 and M4 East to councils for feedback.
These reports are as car centric as you can get - anything that gets in the way of traffic volume or intersection “level of service” is not considered. Speeding up cars on Parramatta Rd is celebrated.
The only paragraph I see mentioning pedestrians is “A pedestrian crossing is provided on the western approach of parramatta road” - that is, pedestrians are prevented from crossing at all other sides of the Parramatta Rd/Potts Rd intersection!

Randwick Council (Sydney) is seeking feedback on creating new cycling and walking connections along Anzac Parade, along with new public spaces.
The council is looking for ideas on improving walking and cycling along the corridor and creating new, inviting open spaces for recreational use!

A side project I've been tinkering on lately - a proof of concept map rendering streets down to the individual lanes, to assist cyclists picking safe routes and support advocacy for reallocating road space for more efficient modes (as supported by the TfNSW Future Transport Strategy).
I wrote the initial vector tileserver from scratch in one afternoon in Typescript, calling the JS bindings for the Rust osm2streets code compiled to wasm. It generates GeoJSON which is then returned by Koa as a protobuf.
The TfNSW Future Transport Strategy states "We will focus on getting more out of our existing investments, by reallocating road space to more efficient modes of transport like buses, walking, cycling and micromobility devices."

#AusGrid is planning to install 30,000 pole mounted EV chargers around Australia by 2029. Charging currently costs $0.50 per KW/h flat rate.
No mention of facilities to charge e-bikes/cargo bikes/scooters.https://www.ausgrid.com.au/About-Us/News/Pole-mounted-EV-charger
