Severance is urbanist media because it correctly identifies the inherent evilness of suburban office complexes and their parking lots.

Note that this data is sourced from OSM, so any weird dots on the map may be legitimately be missing data (in which case, you can be the one to fix it!)

But they may also be technicalities like this, where a bus doesn't use one part of a complex junction or roundabout

And (potentially less interestingly) all of the secondary, primary and trunk roads in Auckland that don't get any bus service at all

A map of all primary or trunk roads in Auckland that don't get frequent bus service

Some very nerdy detail on the frequent bus route numbering in Auckland:

33% of the possible frequent bus route numbers are currently in use

42% are committed to be used in the RPTP by 2031.

The fun thing about using a French provider for your website is that you sometimes get very convincing scam emails in Bosnian(?)

Even Christchurch is not immune to such degeneracy

Many such cases in Tauranga

And if you're already cycling on the footpath... you were already using the footpath.

You don't need a bit of paint marking only the bit adjacent to the roundabout as OK to cycle on - especially if it there's just a traffic island that doesn't give you priority while crossing.

Serious question: Is there any point to building roundabout bypasses for bikes like these?

If you approach using the painted lanes as intended, you're surely confident enough to use a single lane residential roundabout without the help of a shared path

Not sure if anyone's bothered to do this before, but interesting to compare the Te Huia timetables before/after the Pukekohe station & electrification works wrap up in Feb.

Best case running time is 2h22m, which still isn't great, but is creeping down towards driving time in peak traffic

I have tried to catch a train 3 times in the last month, and all three times I have been greeted by this.

Fuck it, roads for everyone.

Hate traffic at the mall

Is this the shortest piece of shared path in Auckland? (excluding roundabout opt-outs, I guess.)

As far as I can tell it's to avoid a pinch point created by this refuge, but it seems more dangerous to exit the road (at high speed from a hill) and rejoin rather than just... stay on the road?

Main bluesky problem #1 - no middle clicking to accumulate truly hideous "I'll read it in a minute" tab queues
