Radio traffic report, a scratched CD?

[Troy711]

If we had traffic reports in Canberra, it would always be:

"and the traffic situation in Canberra this morning is, no, wait, there was a few cars around but now all roads are clear"

I'm so glad I don't have to drive in Sydney or Melbourne daily

What p*sses me off is Canberrans that complain about traffic or paying $7 a day for parking 2 minutes walk from their work!

we do have traffic reports. 104 and 106 do them (and a few AM stations). its the same every morning

'the parkway is flowing steady up towards glenloch, as is parks way and northbourne'

of course it's going to be the same every day...

it's not as if people go a completely different way to work/school every day!

lol they could at least spice it up tho. it gets very monotonous

I find them fairly useful. On a regular day you can expect a lot of traffic during peak hours and you can usually plan your trips accordingly, but when there is an unusual amount of traffic building up it is good to know why and where the problem originated so you can try to work around it. Unless of course you're on your way to work... no better excuse than there was an accident on the freeway and i was stuck in traffic for an hour

dont forget the wynnum road/old cleveland road/lutwyche road congestion warnings later on in the morning

you have left out the bruce highway is backed up past mango hill, gympie road is flowing good watch out for the road works on the gateway motor way, traffic is slow on ipswitch motor way around the darra merge and the gooda merge,

it's alway's the same crap day in day out. i wonder if there is even a problem half the times.

I find it funny that someone under the age of 50 listens to wsfm lol
