Canada Bay council is planning to remove a separated cycleway on Heath Street: https://collaborate.canadabay.nsw.gov.au/ewcycleway/seg1heathst
Heath Street is a crucial link in a six-part East-West regional cycleway connecting Canada Bay in Sydney’s inner west with the western suburbs. The Heath Street section was enabled by $7 million grant from the NSW Government.
The council removed the “Design review report” by McLaren Traffic Engineering from their website, which recommends removing the cycleway.
Fortunately, the Wayback Machine indexed the page 30th Jan 23, showing the now removed report on the right sidebar: https://web.archive.org/web/20230130232813/https://collaborate.canadabay.nsw.gov.au/ewcycleway/seg1heathst
The report link itself was not yet archived, but is currently live.
I’ve run the indexer on it so it’s archived for good now: https://web.archive.org/save/https://collaborate.canadabay.nsw.gov.au/download_file/7173/1457

@jroper The issue is that the current proposed solution is based on the report, and the report isn't publicly available any more.
"The report has been received and assessed and we are proposing changes to the current design to deliver a more balanced solution for the surrounding residents and road users."
