I really hope they mean retinal.

Exclusive: Inside Auckland's City Rail Link with John Campbell | TVNZ+ YouTube video by 1News

Pondering putting aside some cash-muny to do a trip across the ditch when the cuzzie-bros hit the trigger on CRL opening day. (And naturally a trip up to Brisvegas would be on the cards when CRR opens). www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGxa...

Melbourne is in the middle of a housing revolution – have the yimbys already won? Advocates say even they are surprised by Allan government’s embrace of higher density housing, but warn construction costs risk city becoming ‘victim of its success’

For decades, the loudest voices in planning were saying "No." We started YIMBY Melbourne to say "Yes."

The Guardian credits that shift with driving a "planning policy revolution." Proof that when you show up with evidence & optimism, you can change policy!

Big Switch timetables are out!

LA is so beautiful

Do yourself a favour and head to Napier. A very handsome & chill part of the world. Deco fest dates are up now for next year but you're probably too late for accom already (we were lucky booking 13 months ago!).

Chicken shop names are on point.

Auckland goes pretty good. Ignore the kiwis in Australia who are not from Jafa-town who regularly take a shit on the place from a great height, you'll have a ball.

On my recent trip over to Cuzziebro-land, I couldn't help but think the new CRL is going to be tup top for getting up those f**ken hills/volcanoes from Britomart. Getting to cool places like this is going to be far easier.

An industrial strength clean would be nice but full blown Reno? Doubt you could justify it while there’s still another 50-60 level crossings to be removed beyond the current list of 110. Maybe in a decade? So many other priorities IMO.

Best way to change platforms at Flinders is back!

Only became obvious when seeing it for my own eyes every platform group has a PID in the underpass, but they are alternate which direction they’re facing.

They show next train grouped by line info/not individual service deets.

Thousands Of Homes Ahead Of Every Other State Victoria continues to build thousands more homes than any other state, with more than 61,000 home completions over the past 12 months – equivalent to building around 168 homes every single day.ABS dat...

According to this Spring St media release, the planning Minister has used her powers to approve 15k homes since the housing statement was release - an apparent 100% increase on a previous period. www.premier.vic.gov.au/thousands-ho...

Anyhow, that's arbitrary data based on completions. Looking further/earlier up the pipeline, we've still got more activity centres to be named and the initial pilot ones will be closer to finalisation soon.

Vic only got one sentence in the main media release, and it's a lol-worthy backhander anyhow.

The national numbers, according to the Property Council.

Did you know that Vic effectively nailed a housing completion target recently, according to 'the voice of the property industry'?

All the states that didn't hit a target got their own press release.

I reckon they should put the exclamation mark in the upcoming list as well (but only show disruption message once the disrupted train is next to arrive - see previous tweet)

👍 great use of all that screen space re: disruptions

Nope, not sad at all. If the wider network benefits as originally defined in the biz case are realised when the metro tunnel opens (we're still waiting for gov to announce timetables), it's going to be huge.

Just SRL precinct visions. That's the bskeet.

Sydney may have frequency and it may finally have the Mariyung trains but Sydney will never have the HCMT.

I struggle with the ‘why should the federal government have a cities strategy when the states have the planning power’ before anything else really.
