God it's been a while since I switched on a news channel during an unfolding story like this and it remains a waste of time. It really is just a bunch of people who have no inside information speculating wildly and repeating the same things every 5 minutes.

Birdstrike posted:Apple, much like laserface, can gently caress off cohsae posted:What Fed Square actually needs is some gardens or grass something. It's just a big block of concrete with gently caress all shade. How about some trees Melbourne? That's actually kinda why Apple Store aside, the changes here are actually kinda... good. They're going from this: To this: They're greatly opening up flow through to the river, adding a little amphitheatre area, and connecting up to and turning the tree strip behind the iStore into a sloping grass lawn down to the river to relax on. Downsizing that building is a good idea and honestly the square would've been better if it had never been there at all. It also looks there like they're going to directly open the east end of the square into the mall space in the eastern building, which will work a lot better.

From eyewitness reports on the radio it sounds like it was definitely intentional. And from the Guardian: quote:Another witness, Jim, told the ABC the car made no effort to stop or slow down. Awful thing to hear on the radio while driving home. Both my siblings work in the CBD. (They're fine)

Ah gently caress. Catching the news now. I'm off today but that intersection is the transit hub my workplace uses.

TBH it needs a lot more shaded seating area and greenery, it has a lot of similiar issues that I remember King George Square had in Brisbane.

Pro-tip if your exposure to the incident is being asked to get off a tram please don't call the ABC, nobody cares.
