'Adelaide Needs a Safer Cycling Option'

Today, Tuesday 6th May, the Advertiser published my opinion piece "Adelaide Needs a Safe Cycling Option".

This piece was written initially to add to the discourse regarding how the Adelaide City Council in the CBD is planning and implementing its transport infrastructure, in line with its 'Smart Move' strategy.

However, this has direct relevance to Norwood Payneham & St Peters - not just because we are an Inner Rim Council, adjacent to the City of Adelaide, with important transport linkages for cars, motorbikes, delivery vehicles, public transport, bicycles and pedestrians.

The questions being debated by the CBD users are the same questions that the residents of NPSP could be asking... How do we want to live in the future? What kind of neighbourhood and town centre do we want? How do we want that to happen?

My piece can be read via the following link:
