Victoria Walks Great interview, and yes to safer crossing for arterials!
For example. Outlook Rd intersection with #MurrayRd , #Coburg . Before the lanes were added there was a pedestrian refuge here- now it’s very hard to cross to the bus or to the many sporting and open space facilities

Yes. Council were not happy at the time.

Being a crucial missing east-west link, #MurrayRd was earmarked for bike lanes. They also explained why it was a dumb idea to add the lanes.

Walking to school has so many benefits but unfortunately, walking *safely* to school is not an option for the many who use or cross #MurrayRd #Coburg
