The Future of Sydney" Virtual Think Tank on Cycling 2021"

'The Future of Sydney' is a virtual think tank series that aims to initiate an open discussion on some of the key urban issues facing the livability of Sydney.

The first online session focuses on cycling infrastructure and safety. We will have Dr Nicholas Hunter from Bicycle Network and Dr Ben Beck from Monash University presenting some of their recent research and activities on cycling. The event continues with an open discussion on the following broad questions:

• What is the current status of cycling infrastructure in Australian capital cities including Sydney?

• What are the gaps and areas for cycling infrastructure investment?

• Where do we want to be ideally in the next 5 years?

'The Future of Sydney' think tank series is also priviledged to have the support of Yvonne Weldon who is the first Aboriginal-Australian candidate for Lord Mayor of Sydney in the upcoming NSW local government elections in September 2021.

The event is free, open to public and hosted by Dr Meead Saberi from University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney via Zoom (meeting ID 6884889083). To join the event, simply click on the following Zoom link: unsw.zoom.us/j/6884889083
