Ask RiotACT: Skywriting in Canberra over the last couple of days?

By Stevie Hopes 31 March 2018 7

Hi Rioters.

Does anyone know what the story is with the skywriting that has appeared over Canberra the last few days?

I was in Braddon yesterday afternoon and it looked like the writing said something like ‘XC 40’?

Nothing in our pristine Tuggeranong skies (except the invisible pollution from the MLRMC). Appears the new Volvo is only for transit hipsters.

An ad for a Volvo SUV. Exciting, eh? zzzzzzzzzz.

Natalie Harper 9:36 pm 31 Mar 18

Yes. A quick Google of the skywriting (XC40) will give you all the answers.

Kris Willimott 9:22 pm 31 Mar 18

Its for the new volvo xc40 that got released.

A new car service is promising a $350 joint fare for a chauffeured ride to Sydney. Are you tempted to take up the offer?

Yes, great idea. It would be more reliable than then plane, faster than the train and less stress than driving myself.
No thanks, it takes three hours to get to Sydney however you do it. And the bus costs a fraction of the price.
