And if I'm entirely fair, the region is already 'radical' in some ways, the LRT and roundabouts are examples. But in others, it's totally regressive...like in road safety, cycling, and walking. Maybe council just used up all their political will on that one project.

But shouldn't those be kind of important.  I know.  You're the choir, I'm the preacher.

Indeed.

Although I do agree these things actually should go to together.  Few people will be driving to the LRT.  I think the weak walking connections and missing cycling connections to LRT stations is probably the biggest limiting factor on its future success.
