• • Make safe space for cycling on Thorndon Quay

    • 21 Dec 2020
    • Wellington City Council
    • We all deserve safe streets. Let’s make Thorndon Quay safe for people on bikes. We call on Wellington City Council to change angle parking to parallel parking on Thorndon Quay, to make space for people on bikes. Thorndon Quay is a key route in Wellington’s cycling network, linking the city with northern suburbs. Sadly, it has a high crash rate. That needs fixing urgently.

    • Vic and Lis met at Thorndon Farmers’ Market a few years ago where Vic was playing his songs to an appreciative crowd. Playing acoustic tunes about love and life, they go by the principle that more is less while aspiring to an orchestral sound with two guitars and two voices. Although genre fluid their sound could be loosely labeled Americana.
