Mimi says:

In places like London & Singapore the public transport from the outer suburbs is fast and efficient with a few minutes between trains.

26 July, 2018

Emily says:

City bike paths. Organised safety behaviour prompts in stations, painted lines of where to wait for a train. Like Japan.

26 July, 2018

MarkfromMelbourne says:

More radial super bike paths with supporting infrastructure. Better public transport. Airport light rail. Sattelite car parking

jen says:

I live in western Victoria with no adequate train service I have a chronic health condition I drive to Melbourne for easy access

25 July, 2018

Jonathan Adams says:

More dedicated bike lanes. More frequent and reliable public transport (not just peak hour). Fewer cars on roads particularly in the CBD.

25 July, 2018

Al says:

Prioritise & protect pedestrians, cyclists & public transport. Cars/motorbikes/on-street parking should be progressively reduced.

25 July, 2018

Robert Ash says:

I am a motorcyclist & a voter who currently loves being able to park on the footpath legally & I want it to stay that way in future. Thanks

23 July, 2018

Sacman says:

MotorCycle Parking on footpaths is important to me as it leaves more parking for cars alone and allows bikes to park easily

19 July, 2018

David says:

Melbourne Metro 2 is essential if the vision for Fishermans Bend Employment Precinct is to be achieved

19 July, 2018

Steve skb says:

I believe more and more people are starting to ride motor scooters and motor bikes, particularly into the CBD. Footpath parking is essential

18 July, 2018

Jant says:

Get rid of the free tram zone. Thousands of people are using it when they should be walking. Also, E.G. Collins St trams delayed by on/off

16 July, 2018

Michael Czajka says:

Integrate motorcycles into the strategy better? Every motorist you switch to motorcycling makes a significant improvement to traffic flow.

Peter says:

Motorcycle footpath parking is important to me. This allows more parking spaces for cars. Footpath parking hinders no one.

16 July, 2018

Peter Vardy says:

I would like to see a continuation of parking of motorcycles on footpaths across Victoria. It allows more car parking spaces.

16 July, 2018

Terry Orford says:

Need to keep motorcycle and scooter parking on footpaths in Victoria including Melbourne CBD. This will leave more parking for vehicles.

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

Public transport will improve when all senior politicians do not have access to a chauffeur driven vehicle and the pollies will "drive" it.

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

RACV blue bike docks need to service residents NOT just tourists. Have more docks installed and extend docks to the flat suburbs.

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

Build multi-level carparks at suburban train stations to encourage off peakers to use public transport. Charge just $1 on top of the MYKI.

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

Road rules are only good if they are policed. Police are rarely observed in CBD other than friday saturday nights.

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

Little xxxx Streets banned from cars/trucks during certain hours where practicable

15 July, 2018

ONC says:

Make all CBD intersections for all pedestrians to walk in all directions at same time, just like the Elizabeth/Flinders street intersection.

13 July, 2018

Jeff says:

We need to reduce cars and on-street parking. We also need to widen footpaths and create more public spaces for people to enjoy the outdoors

10 July, 2018

charles_oc says:

The city needs to be accessible to ALL modes of transport. Cars, public transport, cyclists etc.

10 July, 2018

aier says:

Special buses that go door to door using app for office workers that drive own car. Cheaper and easier to access car for rent for city users

10 July, 2018

Lena Mazza says:

Pedestrian domination - accessibility, safety, slowing down the pace of the city. Ease of cycling around the city. A ring road around cbd

9 July, 2018

Vivian says:

Public East West buses from Grattan st Carlton to North Melbourne Station. More frequent buses day & evening

8 July, 2018

Morty says:

East west public transport through populous Southbank to avoid crossing river and back. Solution - a bus along City Rd. Vital for aged

6 July, 2018

Stuart H says:

I want to see a few main roads kept for cross city traffic, remove all parking on these roads, then large areas of no traffic except trams

6 July, 2018

Belinda says:

Do NOT ban motorbike/scooter footpath parking. If banned less people will opt to ride and cause more congestion on roads as a result

5 July, 2018

Redgore14 says:

I travel to the city by car as I am disabled. If access by car is restricted or stopped I will have to stop travelling to the city. Very sad

5 July, 2018

bikecommunter says:

Prioritise pedestrians, trams and cyclists. Large parts of the CBD are dominated by cars while peds are squashed on the footpath

5 July, 2018

bikecommunter says:

Safe, well defined bike lanes that are protected as much as possible from cars. Cycling to work I often feel unsafe on poorly designed lanes

5 July, 2018

city dweller says:

widen footpaths and paint arrows for people to keep to the left when walking

5 July, 2018

city dweller says:

Make Melb streets into one way ring roads like Hobart

1 July, 2018

Donald McDonald says:

Keeping the right to park a Motorcycle on a footpath legal across the state of Victoria
