9 months ago@ajsadauskas @nictea @philip @fuck_cars has anyone ever said melbourne does planning well?! i reckon it’s top contender for most thoughtless sprawl, and sydney and Brisbane put up a fight!
@ajsadauskas @fuck_cars absolutely cooked decision making. Sometimes the obvious answer is the correct one. Anyone with an even basic level of understanding of road geometry can (and did) spot the problem with these projects from a mile away. Sigh.
I sometimes wonder about an alternative timeline where the m4 east was built circa '04. That was the actual “”“missing link”“”.
When can we have our surface street space back for public/active transport and placemaking?
