Poynton Regenerated
Despite having probably the most boring blog post title ever, this video is anything but. I love this kind of city design, the kind that goes against logic, history and even common sense, to some respect.
It tells the story of Poynton, a town near Manchester, than decided to replace a dangerous and busy crossroads with what is essentially nothing. If you've ever driven through crossroads where the traffic lights don't work, you'll empathsise with this. Worth 15 minutes of your time.
The Roads of the British Isles
Redditor anditsonfire made this map of the British Isles using just roads. It's brilliant. I can see the road that leads down to the house where my mum grew up on the west coast of Scotland. There aren't many roads up in that area. You can get up close and personal with this one.
