Glad they went with this in the end. Would seem to be a future-proof solution for Springbank Road with the single lane dividing into two through lanes and two turning lanes. Not that I have any understanding of the feasibility of upgrades to that road, just that it has always been quite an annoying ...

Interesting points SBD - I imagine speed limits will still be varied for different types of road conditions based on those likelihoods but there are still a lot of efficiencies that intelligent traffic could make. So even though we won't have 100km/h traffic on every suburban street, we might have a...

Alright, I'm convinced. I initially loved the idea but you all make really valid points!

Certainly no expert on this but if all vehicles are eventually driverless, won't they be far more efficient in the way that they move on the roads? Cars will be able to travel in automated convoys, merge seamlessly at high speeds etc. All cars might be akin to taxis and summoned as required, rather ...

Apologies for the crappy photo quality - I was crossing the road at the time so it had to be quick! I still think it shows how the completed building will look quite prominent from this location

I might have to go for a walk by this way before casting judgement I think. The photo on the previous page looked like a translucent gold, the one just posted above looks like the faded yellow :) I believe that the actual effect of gold colour cannot be represented in the RGB colour space of comput...

Those panels look amazing - almost like a silk veil

From the car park next door this morning

Dammit I thought we might be getting a new TOD

Aagh this makes me really angry, it's one of the most prominent locations in the city, why are we served up with such mediocre proposals? The views from this building would be amazing, why are they installing a cramped eyesore?

They were already slammed in that government report for the lack of privacy and inadequacy of the communal spaces - surely they couldn't be any smaller
