Better Streets was recently invited by The Greens’ Cate Faehrmann and Kobi Shetty to NSW Parliament House for a discussion about shared streets in NSW. Alongside our colleagues from Walk Sydney, Bicycle NSW, 30Please and Inner West Bicycle Coalition, we explored how The Greens could shape their policies to ensure more inclusive, safer and environmentally-friendly streets and communities.

The Melbourne suburbs of Fitzroy and Collingwood now have a 30km/h speed limit across all residential streets. See why this change is great news for all people using these streets along with a report from local safe streets advocacy group Streets Alive Yarra and general explainer video on the importance of low vehicle speeds on residential streets.

Better Streets welcomes the Transport for NSW Implementation review of the TfNSW Road User Space Allocation policy.
