Bicycle Network Victoria: Metro Routes
Inner: Wellington St
Wellington St is a popular and well connected route in the inner network. With over 400 riders in the 7-9am peak it provides a major transport function and serves as a viable connection from North Fitzroy through to East Melbourne
March 2010 Wellington St has developed as a major transport route for riders in the innder north and north east Melbourne area. It operates as a Hoddle St alternative and connects well to other routes such as Heidelberg Rd, High St, Johnston St, Gipps/Langridge/Gertrude, Albert St and Clarendon St/Barrak Bridge.
This route can perform better and attract more riders cost effectively with minimal impact through the introduction of elements such as:
- Separated facility between Johnstone St and Victoria Parade
- Green Lanes plus Vibraline north of Johnston St
- Greater level of service to intersections and storage boxes
- Advance signal phases at Alexandra and Victoria Parades
