Pierre from BikeWest made an excellent speech:

"
"Sanguis Ante Actum" - Blood before action
Following last month's tragic death of Will Richter on an unsafe intersection on Macaulay Road, the City of Melbourne and DTP have committed to working together to build safe bike lanes on Macaulay Road, lanes that may have helped avoid the senseless death of a young man who had a bright future in front of him.
We welcome the authorities moving forward with the project, but despair that it required 'Blood Before Action'

In 2024, 5 days after Brett Wallace, 29, was run over & rendered paraplegic by the driver of a semi trailer on a dangerous Dynon Road intersection, West Gate Tunnel Project, along with VicTrack and the DTP began working to complete a short section of bike path that avoided the dangerous intersection altogether.
After three days of work, that safe bike path was completed.
Blood before action

In 2023, after Angus Collins, 22, was killed at a known unsafe intersection on Footscray Road, by the driver of a concrete truck, West Gate Tunnel and the DTP banned left hand turns at the intersection.
Blood before action

In 1986, after 6 year old Anthony Bartl was hit by a speeding car on Macaulay Road, leaving him a quadriplegic, the City of Melbourne made changes to Macaulay Road to make it safer to cross and to discourage speeding drivers.
Blood before action

Does it have to be this way?
Do we need the painful reminder of road trauma to make our roads safer?
Are we unable to make changes to our roads without prerequisite bloodshed?
Does it really have to be this way?
Can we not upgrade our roads before another tragedy?

Can we have Action Before Blood?

The route for the Critical Mass ride on Friday. We're riding to Kensington to complete the ride that Will Richter didn't get to complete. A ride from his 19th birthday brunch to his university class.

Will Richter was hit by a truck on Macaulay Rd on his 19th birthday.

There are already plans for protected bike lanes for Macaulay Rd that have been sitting with the Department of Transport and Planning for a long time waiting for approval.

Meet at 5:30pm, State Library, Friday 31st October.

I'm pretty bummed I didn't get to Critical Mass today. I had a family dog emergency. Looks like the weather held up. I hope it was fun ☺️

Critical Mass Naarm/Melbourne is back from the cold and dark winter break.

We're starting again this Friday (29th August) 5:30pm at the State Library.

Bring your wet weather gear because it looks like it will probably rain.

Critical Mass Footscray was good.
The ride down Dynon Rd was a bit somber as we let the cars use one lane. But the ride to the rainbow bridge was nice

Lots of fun bicycles. I got a photo of a side-by-side tandem.

We want to government to open to Dynon Rd cycle bridge that replaces the Dynon Rd footpath that has been removed and turned in to a car lane.
The bridge ('Rainbow Bridge') has been largely complete for years but is fenced off.

We also want to Dynon Rd bike path extended west up to Barkley St so people can use it to get to the Footscray shops.

We had 3 councilors from the Maribyrnong council along for the ride which was really great as well as the Green's candidate for Fraser.
