‘Christmas lanes’ to ease holiday traffic / MMDA to utilize side streets as alternate routes‘
http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/metro/view/20101203-306898/Christmas-lanes-to-ease-holiday-traffic ----------- I hate 'reading' instructions while on a stop&go driving (trying to find my way out of a traffic gridlock); or trying to punch-in data on the tiny keyboard on my gpsr, in search for an auto-routing destination (while already in motion). Before I lose this article, I think i'll get a highlighter-pen and just draw over the above suggested routes on my favorite paper city-map. Coz my brain keeps on forgetting the 'alternates'; unconsciously going into an auto-pilot-mode, always driving towards my favorite 'longer & slower' roads like a magnet. And before I know it, I'm stuck in traffic again. The highlighted compilation of 'short-cut roads' all over the metropolis may serve as visual reminder from time to time, and may come in handy even after Christmas is over :-) _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
