Could you give us a video where you go and check out the progress of those cycleways you briefly showed under construction and nearly finished @2:23 continuing up Castlereagh St and Liverpool/Oxford St? There are no recent videos and very few recent pics around.
Hi I did do a video on these new cycleways a month ago - it is called: New Sydney cycle infrastructure. They have just finished a second section of oxford street and I’m waiting for the Castlereagh Street cycleway to open before doing an updated video. (Castleregh st cycleway should not be to far off opening)
@@MrAjayz Yeah I just started the "NEW cycle infrastructure" video of yours now as I read your comment, great stuff! They both look pretty close to being finished, right? At least that's how it looks in this video above where my original comment about @2:23. Oxford St will be such a game-changer, if only they could sort out a proper bike solution on Broadway/Parramatta Road too you would see an explosion of cyclists I reckon. I used to ride from Petersham to my office on Kent St near Wynyard sometimes (that was in 2017-2018), it wasn't too bad except the section of Parramatta Road and Pyrmont Bridge Road was god awful. But really the inner-west and inner-east should be cycling paradise even better than the inner-south is mainly thanks to Bourke St cycleway and dense walkable development.
@@MrAjayz Yeah but they are talking about light rail by 2035, whereas a cycling option could be implemented next week if you wanted to with a more substantial pop-up arrangement than we saw during COVID. Also logically if I am going to shut down a massive arterial road for 5-6 years in order to build a light rail (which I support), I would logically build a pop-up cycleway first or a major alternative cycling route so that the maximum number of people possible can switch to cycling for the duration of the construction to relieve the buses - this is one criticism I have of the Bankstown line conversion is they could implement a bunch of pop-up cycleways to ease the strain but they seem to want the maximum amount of status quo possible.
We pray for the success of your channel

There is talk about extending the light rail along Parramatta road and I’m sure at the same time they would look at cycleways.. *(fingers crossed)
