| 800606 | 2009-08-31 22:32:00 | Whereabouts Wrat? Have they finished those alterations at the end of the Richmond Deviation/Queen St? Yeah that's where, there is a second set there now that it's finished. There's also a set on the intersection of Talbot St and Salisbury roads, made everything slower but at least it is actually possible to turn across the traffic now. :p It looks like they are trying to create a sort of Richmond ring road. |

Kind of makes sense; Richmond Devn is pretty dangerous at peak times with the buildup of traffic causing queues at the Queen St intersection (have a piece of road here in Dunedin with the same problem!), and Queen St itself can be a shocker, especially with the doddery old buggers driving up and down there!! |

| 800611 | 2009-08-31 23:22:00 | Still a shame an old building is going, especially for a bloody McDonalds :groan: | nofam (9009) | ||
| 800612 | 2009-08-31 23:31:00 | Yeah it is, there was a bit of a moan, everyone asking why we needed another one as there are 4 in the region already. I think their reason for putting one there was the one in the mall could only open when the mall was open, eg no late nights/weekends which I imagine would cut their potential profits in half. |
