[talk-au] BP Service Stations.

[darylr]

Hi All,
Earlier this year I checked the locations of the BP Service Stations around 
Coffs Harbour and found the list 
hopelessly inaccurate. One station that is located south of town was listed as 
located north of town, 
about six kilometers north of where it actually is. There was only one station 
listed reasonably close to its 
actual location.
So beware of the accuracy of the list.

regards
Darylr

 I was looking at getting a wall map of Australia for work and look
 what I 
 found.
 Really interesting device.
 

Hi Liz,
Have a look at this one, it has many more features.

[talk-au] Fords, Causeways, Piers, Wharfs, etc

[darylr]

 
 Really? We've always called 'em Fords here in SA, they called
 causeways
 elsewhere? And a causeway to me is exactly the definition I saw
 posted
 earlier from wikipedia, so the whole confusion is confusing to me :)
  
  Something else I can't work out how to tag is a jetty, the thing
 that
  juts out into water and boats tie up to. But after 8 years of
 drought
  here, perhaps I needn't worry too much.
 
 man_made = pier works doesn't it? That's whay I've seen people using
 and the definition on map features seems to fit it.

Hi All,

I don't have a problem with a ford (Slab of concrete or gravel base across a 
water course, wet or 
dry) or a causeway ( A rock or concrete structure across a water course with 
the ability of water to 
pass under during normal season and water over structure during flooding)

I don't have a problem with a pier to show a structure along a water course or 
protruding into a 
watercourse that is used for marine activities.

What I do have a problem with is a rock or concrete wall that is built to 
control the flow of water as 
in river mouths and enclosing harbours. Some call them Breakwalls, some call 
them Training 
Walls, some call them Breakwaters, some call them Retaining Walls and so 
forth.

What do we call them ???  Nearly every river and harbour on the north coast of 
NSW have them

Regards
