Stroads are a tragic combination of streets, which are designed around "places" with purely the pedestrian in mind, and roads, which are designed for the purpose of getting vehicles from A to B. Stroads have completely overrun Sydney, ruining town centres all across the city. Victoria Road through West Ryde is one of the most egregious examples, and it's the road that I will be exploring the most in this video. But not all hope is lost, for time and again Sydney has fixed its stroads, turning them into beautiful streets. This is the struggle of stroads in Sydney, and just how we could fix it.
