Hi,

Sorry the summary from the October 28th meeting have been so slow
coming out. I will try and get them out tonight, but in the
meantime, I think its best to hold off on the Osborne Bridge Meeting
at the Toad in the Hole until next Monday November 16th, at 7pm.

The jist of it is that the engineers are saying they can put 1.5m
bike lanes onto the bridge, but they cannot add separated bike lanes
because of load restrictions from the crane that services the bridge
and shy lane requirements. There is potential to widen the bridges
an additional 30cm each by being creative with where the handrails
go, which could then widen the bike lanes to 1.8m each way.

Mark
