Just awful.
I'm furious. @NZNationalParty have cut funding for the shared path link from Meadowbank to Kohimarama. The gowing drive tunnel under the railway would have allowed hundreds of students to walk to school rather than be driven.

Have you spotted a CYCLOPs junction recently? By separating people walking, wheeling and cycling from motor traffic, we can make routes safer and easier to use for all road users, just like this one in Cambridge 🚶🦽🚴🛴🚗

Driving cars is the most heavily subsidised mode of transportation on the planet.🌍
Imagine if we closed roads to cars & traffic congestion actually REDUCED as a result. Sounds counter-intuitive, yet it’s EXACTLY what research revealed in cities around the world, described as ‘traffic evaporation’ in a seminal UK study of 100 locations. rapidtransition.org/stories/reduci…
Vaccines work. Vaccine denial kills. It’s that simple.

I'm 1 of 4 kiwis I know who have contracted a strain with XEC symptoms this week from people who returned a few days after infection. HealthNZ website landing page doesn't even have symptom information 🤦🏻♂️ Time to up our game again or take a hit to our health & economy #nzpol

We invited influencers to a different kind of dining experience: one where they get to live with inequality, first-hand. This is what happened. #ENOUGH is enough #WorldFoodDay #ENOUGHchildhunger
I can't see how the govt has a mandate for this.
Plans for offshore wind energy projects cancelled by investors after #NZ Govt puts controversial seabed mining project in #fasttrack law; concern is that it “could shrink or completely eliminate area available for offshore wind in Sth Taranaki”. Big loss newsroom.co.nz/2024/10/24/off…
All around the world, cities are racing to build zero carbon solutions. I applaud @WgtnCC for it's fast-track rollout of a protected bike network. wellington.govt.nz/parking-roads-…
How to create a cycling culture where none exists? Build a complete network, and build it quickly. Between 2016 and 2024, Vilnius built 164 kilometres of Dutch-inspired, red asphalt cycle paths, and went from 1.5 to 4.5% modal share—a three-fold increase—in two political terms.🧵
