I fear next week's Twitter cabbie meltdown over Oxford Street's pedestrianisation will be apocalyptic. In 3 months' time, no one will care and will wonder why it wasn't done years ago Remember the outrage when they removed cars from Trafalgar Square? Aldwych? Now, no one cares

Deregulate quantity, not quality.

The way NIMBYs throw the word "deregulation" around you'd think the main fight in housing was over bringing back asbestos insulation instead of whether a single-family homeowner should be able to build an apartment building under a basically otherwise unchanged regulatory regime

If you’re a member of the Liberal party you should write to your MPs to ask what’s going on here. Adding apartment buildings around the three(!) new Metro stations in the Drummoyne electorate shows “contempt” for it apparently.

Hopefully this is the start of a lot pf sensible and much needed upgrades to the existing rail network. Much of which was neglected under the previous government

A reminder that Sydney's just opened secondary airport is beating Melbourne Airport on PT access to surrounding suburbs. More, including a plan to better connect Melbourne Airport, here: melbourneontransit.blogspot.… #springst

Local councils are excessively obstructionist. 95% of refusals that are appealed are overturned. "Local control" is code for stopping new homes. smh.com.au/national/nsw/the-…

The developers, the courtrooms and the battle over what gets built in Sydney

Developers are increasingly turning to legal appeals to overturn council planning decisions and a record number of NSW development appeals are being finalised in court.

Calling a corrugated iron shed in a Geelong sheep paddock a 'competing international airport' is elite levels of Melbourne cope

Western Sydney International Airport, Day One. Most of the developed world and the Anglosphere in particular have lost the ability to build mega projects. May Australia never fall into that degrowth trap.

My reasons re-tweeting: 1. ❤️ @metrodesantiago 2. Improving PT isn’t the terrain of only ‘progressives’. Hell, in Chile even a dictatorship thought it important 3. Since opening, it’s still dev: 7 lines + 2 in dev 4. Why such little commitment to improving PT in Vic? #SpringSt

University Avenue during rush hour. Better rip out those bike lanes and relieve the horrendous traffic.

Car-first metro growth scales unbelievably smoothly up to ~5M people, but as the 60-90min commute zone bogs down, you end up wishing you'd chosen more balanced growth + road pricing Most US cities aren't on track to grow that big, but the ~dozen that do are super important

Replying to @rohanaras @aarmlovi @apmechan
Purely auto based commuting networks do seem to allow for larger commute sheds and scale up to about 5 mil workers; remote work and AVs probably allow you to push that up further nber.org/system/files/workin…

NIMBYs join forces to fight 34 social homes for homeless women and children in Maryborough. How exactly would giving them veto power improve the lives of Victorians?

A good explanation of how the proposed toll caps in Victoria would work (Transurban and ConnectEast make the same money they already do, with the state government making up the difference) transportist.net/p/who-pays-…

Who Pays for a Toll Cap?

Labor and the Coalition both promise Victorians a Sydney-style toll rebate.

A piece of mine on the Australian Greens policy of opposing military assistance to Ukraine, and what parties that advocate "peace and nonviolence" get wrong about countries like Russia. @AmbVasyl thediplomat.com/2026/10/what…

What the Greens Misunderstand About the Ukraine Conflict

As a policy, the Greens decision to not support military assistance to Ukraine is a deeply flawed one. As a political position it is self-defeating, too.
