Email 1: Dear Minister Horne,
We write to you in your capacity as the Minister for Road Safety as Yarra Council intends to degrade the Elizabeth Street bike lanes, the only safe bike lanes in Richmond, this coming Monday 16 March 2026.
We also include Gabrielle Williams MP as her portfolio is Minister for Active Transport.
These bike lanes form part of the state government’s Strategic Cycling Network and the changes proposed are against the Road Management Act.
Please step in and STOP these changes!
[Please add your personal story about Elizabeth Street]
Kind Regards
