30k speed limits
Just got a letter from the city council. Basically all roads leading to a local school have the speed limit dropped to 30 at all times, the streets in front of the school will also have speed bumps, and the High Street adjacent to the school will have its peed dropped to 30 at pick up/drop off times which is also peak commuter times. The only feedback allowed is which other streets need a 30K limit. Comments?

Hi everyone, last Friday night about 8:45pm there was a heavy knock on my back door. I opened the door, (the screen/security door was locked) and there stood a man, who introduced himself as Tony!
He desperately needed the toilet. I suggested he go behind the bus shelter, but, he needed more than a wee! Oh dear! Anyway, I refused apologetically, but there wasn’t any way I was letting a stranger into my house! Sorry Tony, wherever you are. It would have been easy to say okay, but, I couldn’t risk it!

Avalon cycleway (well, shared path actually!)
Fantastic to see the city continue to invest in making getting to school safer on bikes.
The city's getting denser. Every commute should feel like what it does during school holidays. The only way to get that to happen is when parents feel comfortable with their kids riding bikes and walking to school.
I've heard a few people moan that there's no bikes, so there's no need for a cycleway. But the lack of bikes is exactly the point. It indicates that people don't feel like bikes are a valid option.
Cycleways work all around the world. There's no magical curse which means that they won't work here too.
