Feb 27 - Sydney Harbour Bridge closureThe Bridge will be closed for 5 hours.
Mark Webber will be driving his F1 car across the bridge, but he's been told he must abide by the speed limits. Could be some interesting pix. g.

Typical, block off traffic for hours just for some stupid publicity crapola.
When will the Sydney City Council wake up and smell the beans. They refuse to lower the speed limit in the city to 40Kph when the cross-city tunnel is completed, put in pedestrian safe crossings and 'no-traffic' areas and then create traffic problems by blocking off a major access so some wannabe Fangio can show off his shiny new wheels to people in a city where the grand prix is NOT happening. Next thing you know will happen is Albert Park Lake in Melbourne will be closed off so Webber and his 'mates' can race around the damn thing. What's the world coming to? Steve.

Steve, if you had a machine like the one Webber's driving, wouldn't you want to show it off?
And even if you say no to that, I'm sure BMW and Williams would tell you to anyway. Look at all that free advertising! Producer & Editor @ GadgetGuy.com.au

I was thinking about going and having a look at this, it turns out that there is no public access to the bridge. pretty poor form i think, closing the bridge for so long, and the only way to see it is on 10...

Cheers guys
I wonder how much they had to pay for this to happen. It would have to have been a fair bit. Good example how money talks

AFAIK they arn't actually paying much (if it all), which I just can't fathom.

Our beloved leaders have fallen for the old "they'll stop in Sydney on the way to Melbourne" line. Just like all of the tourists we're seeing today who have come to Melbourne after seeing Sydney, following on from the Olympics. I think I'm going to puke! g.
