After weeks of dodging traffic cones along Springfield Rd, I decided it was time to put my drone in the air to see how the new cycleway/footpath looked from a bird's eye perspective.
There's no doubt about it, the construction workers are displaying unsurpassed expertise and I would get them to lay my driveway any day. Five stars for their superb work.
But oh boy, how much is all this going to cost? Is there indeed a final figure? How much will they be used? And really, do we need such staggeringly wide pathways around the city at the expense of narrowing the roads?

Reserves damaged
The Hannahs Bay and Holdens Bay reserves were also severely damaged at the weekend with hoons churning up the grass surface and damaging play equipment, recycling bins, etc.
People must know who these fools are, and reporting to the police is the first step.
