Waiting on a work call from London before I can sign off for the week. I said 6pm Mel / 9am London. A Friday night work call is bad enough, now they're late. They've got until 6:15pm, then my working week is over. Too bad.

Okay as much as I love the infrastructure upgrades to Melbourne, some small things have been ticking me off about it.

  • Multiple occasions where the the west gate bridge says two lanes have been blocked and to go 40km/h only to find out at the end that no work was being done at the bridge at that time (zero signs of any relevant vehicles)

  • Yesterday Williamstown rd inbound was blocked, google maps said it wasn't. Tiny detour sign to say take Grieve parade to come around. Millers rd (before Grieve parade) was actually open as a detour but no mention. Also zero detour signs before you hit Grieve parade exit. I suspect an uncountable number of drivers would have made a mistake there

  • Planning is unclear on PTV app with all the bus replacements, showing you train data on lines that aren't running. Google maps isn't any better either, giving you false information on what trains lines/stops actually available

This on top of an exhausting day was the cherry on top

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit
One more time 🎶
