@hipstergeddon @AussieWirraway No, it doesn’t. Have you read the road safety audit? Says the new width will result in more dooring and crashes. They’re now similar in narrowness to Albert St, East Melb, which has historically contributed to road safety incidents so CoM is planning to widen them.

@AussieWirraway It looks good. Hard to see what all the protests were about. People got upset because they couldn’t read a plan.
