Other than its falling apart and awkward to get in/out of (due to the one way system) I've not got a problem with the old maltings site in #Ipswich being used for a #carpark - but I think its a bit of a pisstake the #Council is essentially expecting motorists to be unpaid security guards by their presence (when it costs the same to park in as all the other Council car parks, and there are better ones just a few metres away!)

car-space.
In the past 3 months a work requirement is that I drive to work. Prior, I didn’t own a car. Cycled everywhere. Walked everywhere else. Attended #criticalmass. With feet on the street I could feel the tension and pollution cars bought. Now, driving feels normalised once again. We moved house and to take my son to daycare I could pretty easily catch the bus. But driving seems ‘just easier’ so I do that. Now my experience of Smith St comes via a car windscreen. So quickly I see people on bikes again and think fuck that. Fuck the heat. Fuck having to shower when I get to work. Fuck watching my colleagues easily leave while I get packed and ready to change into bike clothes. Fuck forgetting my bike lights and being scared to ride home at night. Fuck packing summer clothes to work but also winter clothes for coming home. Fuck potholes rattling my wrists. Most of all fuck cycling while feeling consumed with anger at the selfishness of the drivers around me. Burnout, and perspectives change.

I made this two years ago. It's a dashboard with a map of car parking prices around Pittsburgh. The darker the color, the higher the price. Zoom in to each area to make the chart change according to the area.

It is difficult to #recruit #staff for the #nhs. On #islands it is even more difficult. Increasing #parking #charges for #staff makes the #job even less attractive. Those who help us when we are at our most #vulnerable should not be paying for #carpark #management #costs.

Car parks are not something that I would normally expect to make for an interesting photographic subject.
However, a recently built car park in my home city of Sunderland, in North East England, has some rather intriguing shiny metal exterior cladding, which at this time of the year catches the early afternoon sunshine.
I was quite taken by the result!

@JugglingWithEggs #CarPark income is poison to #hospitals and #councils, giving incentive to fail at their non-financial primary aims. Also amazing none of #BBCNews, #EDP, #LynnNews and so on seem willing to question the #QEHKL absurdity. Building the car park tower and then building a new hospital on the RAAC hospital's car park means the new hospital will be hard up against the busy A149 coast road. Should build the new hospital extending in from the A1076 side, instead of the car park tower

Sheesh, traffic's only going to get worse as the day wears on. If you know anyone coming back to Canberra from the coast, via Cooma, tell them to take the Old Cooma Rd turnoff and go via QBN.. or they may never be seen again. #carpark
