Ok I don& #39;t know why I never noticed this before but how come almost every road in every large east coast Australian city is about 10 degrees off from being north-south or east-west?
This cannot be an accident
And yet in Adelaide and Perth...
Multiple people have said that it could be the difference between true north and magnetic north, and I hadn& #39;t thought of that... but it also doesn& #39;t explain why Perth and Adelaide are different.
Looks like Magnetic North is the explanation, and for spooky reasons it varies in orientation across the country. Fascinating.
