“A cycle path built through part of Sydney’s inner west will be ripped up on Tuesday, five months after it was completed, due to a council decision described by riders as a knee-jerk reaction to complaints from residents.”
@ajsadauskas @SydneyCyclewaysFan @jedsetter @ukuku @ajsadauskas@lemmy.ml @cyclingnews @walk_sydney @sydneyurbanismnews This was my reply I received 19th of April. I sent an email Apr 13th seeking clarification on the CityHub article and if the position on removal had changed (the article was incorrect - the author must have been confused by the council wording): https://cityhubsydney.com.au/2023/04/inner-west-cycleway-to-stay-after-council-flips-on-decision-to-demolish/
The Deaign Modification Proposal has this photo which sets things out clearly, which I included in my analysis at https://jakecoppinger.com/2023/03/canada-bay-council-plans-to-remove-heath-st-cycleway-due-to-a-misleading-traffic-report/
Dear Jake,
Thank you for your email.
I can confirm that council is not removing the cycleway route but only modifying the design.
If you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards

@jakecoppinger @ajsadauskas@aus.social @SydneyCyclewaysFan @jedsetter @ukuku @ajsadauskas@lemmy.ml @cyclingnews @walk_sydney @sydneyurbanismnews “modifying the design” is an extraordinarily dishonest way to describe removing the entire thing but painting a couple extra bike logos on the road.
