Every time a car does a parallel park on #SydneyRoad it holds up the movement of all vehicles: cars, delivery trucks, trams and bicycles. Oversized utes doubly so as they need more room to manoeuvre and a larger parking space. Sydney Road needs to be revitalised to prioritise vehicle movement, as well as more pedestrian and cycling space and opportunities to Green the Sydney Road Corridor with canopy trees and vegetation to provide shade and reduce the #UrbanHeatIslandEffect that is exacerbated by global warming.

State government Department of Transport planners and local politicians should be looking at what Paris has done in recent years regarding #activetransport prioritisation and greening city streets, to create a more liveable, friendly and safe environment through Brunswick and Coburg.

Also Prioritisation of accessible tram stops is an essential part of upgrading Sydney Road.

That’s our thoughts on #SydneyRoad as #Chihuahuas who need to cycle along Sydney Road to get to businesses there, and as #ChihuahuasForClimateAction

VicRoads own survey of #SydneyRoad in 2018 resulted in 52% support for Option 3, of all options - Single lane each way for cars and trams, protected cycle lanes, and widened footpath spaces. Accessible tram stops are needed along this stretch and could be incorporated in road rebuild.
There is ample offstreet carpark and sidestreet parking available.

Parallel parking often is the cause of holding up traffic and trams on #SydneyRoad in #Coburg and #Brunswick. There are thousands of car parks in off street car parking close to Sydney Rd. Victorian State Government is dragging its heels in removing parking, implementing protected bike lanes, accessible tram stops and enlarging footpath space for pedestrians, cafes, and street vegetation making a more liveable, enjoyable shopping environment..
