#Adelaide City Centre could use a makeover! Wonderful illustration of what walking and cycling advocates are calling for when they say they want a more #liveable healthy city. @CityofAdelaide @Walking_SA @DPTI_SA @SAHealth @heartfoundation #healthyactivebydesign @BikeInstituteSA
Just in case you needed a reminder of all the LIFE you can fit into cities when you rethink streets for cars. Space for green & nature that supports great urbanism, and space for PEOPLE! Via @watgdesigns @LondonNPC, #NationalParkCity Fleet Street vision.

Of all accidents in involving #pedestrians being hit by cars 15% are in Adelaide CBD. Last wk Brisbane reduced another CBD road to 40km/h after 10 serious crashes with pedestrians. North Tce in Adelaide 29 cases over 5 yrs, maybe it's time for 40km/h bit.ly/2DhR3xk

The Heart Foundation is calling for the SA State Government to develop and fund a state-wide walking strategy to increase the number of people. We at Walking SA support this agenda, and will advocate and build support from our community. bit.ly/2ROpuki

Factsheet on crashes involving pedestrians in metro Adelaide. The City of Adelaide council is mostly 50 or 60km/h, but surrounded by councils with some 40km/h zones. Highest number of pedestrian crashes occur in the City - almost 1 in 5 pedestrians crashes bit.ly/33PmFFf

It’s great to see that the @CityofAdelaide is to develop a city walking strategy. In a motion moved by Councillor Helen Donovan, the Council notes the data produced by Walking SA, pointing out the huge number of crashes involving pedestrians in the City bit.ly/2kZme9M

Now that daylight savings has started, short after-work walks are a great way to get out and experience the sunshine and a healthy walk. View a list of 30 short walks around Adelaide bit.ly/evening-walks-sa #walkingsa #walking #hiking #adelaide

As pedestrian deaths in South Australia hits an all time high, we need to acknowledge that while safety features in cars are getting better to protect occupants - it's at the cost of vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists theverge.com/2019/10/23/2092…
Great work for the new King William road bike crossing point in Unley now being well used to safely cross this busy road. @UnleyCouncil
