Hello everyone,

I wanted to bring to your attention one particular threat facing
Istanbul at this point. It is the potential construction of a third
bridge spanning the Bosporus. Here is a short piece on that:

I'm in touch with the people who are working on opposing that, and one
thing that came to my mind is that it could be potentially helpful if
there are organisations elsewhere who have dealt with such problems in
the past, and could help shed light on best practices. UK anti-highway
expansion efforts came to mind, i believe there is a rich tradition of
that there. Although I'm not fully sure where might be the best places
to look, or if there is any particular group that could be interested
in looking into this particular case.

Regards,
Justin
