SUPER TUESDAY bike count: Sit up and be counted

Posted on by • Posted in Bicycle Advocacy, Bicycle commuting, City of Greater Geelong Council, Sustainable transport • 1 Comment

Tomorrow is Super Tuesday when cyclists will be counted all over Australia.

If you’re out on your bike tomorrow try to be out between 7 and 9AM.  There are a number of sites around Geelong.  If you pass one – you will be counted. 

Some of our members are recording the count in these locations.  Ride past, be counted, and say hello.

  • Shannon Avenue Bridge/Barwon Shared (Newtown/Belmont) Path – Max
  • Station Street Roundabout near North Shore Station – Trish M
  • Glenleith Avenue/The Esplanade, Drumcondra – Rosemary
  • Moorabool Street/The Esplanade/Bay Trail – Helen

The data collected is used by the local council and Vic Roads to inform decision making on cycling facilities and cyclist numbers.
