We fully support the measures proposed by Bicycle Victoria to let more and more city residents use bikes instead of cars.
See Bicycle Victoria's Congestion Solutions page for more details on what's needed.
The great thing is that the costs involved are trivial compared to any other transport solution!
Walking
Walking is a real transport option that needs to made available to people in all areas. That means actually providing somewhere to walk and not letting the footpath fade out to nothing, or building new estates without footpaths.
Pedal Monorail Systems??
This could be feasible in some areas, and would also help tackle the obesity epidemic!
