New title

[edit]

    Hello fellow wikivoyagers. I have renamed it because this article is out of date. The Pacific Highway is now split with some sections being called Pacific Highway and some being called Pacific Motorway. The gazette is 8 years out of date. I'm presuming that people reading this are here to go from Sydney to Brissie by car and not for going on the old Pacific Highway; which most of it has been renamed. Let me know what you think.

    Looks reasonable to me, but please don't archive this, given that there's no premium on space. Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:19, 16 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
    Nope, I won't archive it till June SHB2000 (talk) 10:47, 16 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
    There's no reason to archive this page until it's overly long. Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:21, 16 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

    Alternate banner for this article

    [edit]
    Current one (B1)
    Alternate current Pacific Motorway (B2)
    Pacific Highway before Port Macquarie (B3)

    I propose that we change the banner. The current one is out of date and does not represent the modern Pacific Highway/Motorway. The new one is fairly new and reflects the recent changes. SHB2000 (talk) 10:57, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

    That old one was bypassed like 20 years ago. SHB2000 (talk) 22:27, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

    @Ikan Kekek, Ground Zero:, here's a better version of the banner (See B3). SHB2000 (talk) 03:53, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

    Yeah, that one is the best, IMO. It shows up-to-date conditions, right? Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:56, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
    I agree: banner 3. Ground Zero (talk) 05:00, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
    @Ikan Kekek: yep, it sure does. SHB2000 (talk) 05:22, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
    Banner 3 is my first preference too. Gizza (roam) 01:46, 23 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
    Though Banner three is slightly different since 2019 after the bushfires went close to that stretch of highway. SHB2000 (talk) 06:34, 23 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

    Reviving this

    [edit]
    Banner 4 (just before St Helena Tunnel)
    Banner 5 (taken from this vandalised bridge)

    I've cropped two more banners. 4 is one of my favourite tunnels, and I cropped 5 because of its symmetry (and also depicts both sides of the road, not just northbound). --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 00:41, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

    For the record, I think banner 4 was taken in this exact location. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta) 00:45, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
    I like B2 or B4, prefer a shot with bridge or tunnel, find photos with just a road rather boring. Pashley (talk) 00:53, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
