Dear <<First Name>>,
Recently Yarra Councillors FAILED to vote for the Wellington Street Copenhagen lane.
Making their wonderful Bicycle Strategy a dead duck.
YCAN (and many others) was shocked that reportedly a single voice at the council meeting was enough of a fig leaf for the ALP and Cr Vlahogiannis to vote against the Wellington Street proposal and Mayor Fristacky to abstain causing this debacle.
This Copenhagen lane has been the subject of multiple rounds of consultation, thankfully Cr Stone was able to get a motion up to look at the consequences for the Bicycle Strategy.
If you want more people to cycle.
If you want to have safer bike paths.
If you want Yarra to do what it's own policy lays out.
Then please join with us at the Yarra Council Meeting.
WHERE: Richmond Town Hall
TIME: 7pm
DATE: Tuesday 17 December 2013
We have speakers, petitions, signage.
Please join with us on the night.
Ian
