Changelog

Eleven services ended in spring 2026 and MK Connect replaced them. This is what the council publishes about it: £4 peak and £3 off-peak, £1.50 on an older person's or disabled person's pass, distance surcharges past 5 km and 8 km, Monday to Saturday 6am to 8pm with no Sunday service, and the council's own note that most people wait around half an hour. Anything written about MK Connect before spring 2026 is likely out of date.

Pick your band and your parish area and see the 2026/27 charge, split between the city council, Thames Valley Police, the fire authority and your parish. All 48 parish areas are in it: 45 levy a precept, from £16.67 in Central Milton Keynes to £368.15 in Woughton at Band D, which is why two neighbouring streets can pay different totals.

Council tax worked out for your band and your parish, what MK Connect actually costs and when it runs, and a board where riders and walkers say how the redways are.

Sign in and tell other riders whether a route is clear, rough going or blocked, on the five branches of the kommun's prioritised cycle route and the last kilometre into the centre. It says clearly that nothing posted there reaches anyone who can fix it — the kommun's felanmälan does that, and it is linked.

Search any household item and see which of the eight compartments it goes in, which bin that is, and how often that bin is emptied — Soptunna 1 monthly, Soptunna 2 twice a month. Includes what the collection costs in 2026 and what to do when a compartment is always too small.

SE3 day-ahead prices, refreshed through the day, with the things missing from every headline spot price added back in: Tekniska verken's transfer fee, the energy tax and VAT. Pick a job — a wash, the dishwasher, charging the car — and it finds the cheapest window long enough to finish it. It says plainly that none of this matters on a fixed-price contract, and that the effektavgift on your highest hour is a reason not to run everything at once.

Electricity prices hour by hour with the tax and grid fee added in, a sorter for the eight compartments in the new bins, and a board where riders say how the cycle routes are. The pages are in English for now — Swedish is not yet one of the site's languages, and that is flagged rather than hidden.

Some countries price electricity in steps that change as the month goes on, and one price per unit could not describe them. The calculator now walks the steps, counts them across the month rather than per purchase, and models the standing charge that a prepaid meter takes from your first token. Uganda is the first to use it, where the step covering units 81 to 150 is deliberately cheaper than the one below it.

Nobody publishes matatu or boda fares for Jinja, so this board is built from residents' own numbers. Sign in, say what you actually paid for a trip, and the board shows the middle figure from recent reports. It starts empty on purpose — putting our own guess up first would only teach the board to repeat it back.

The fees KCCA's own contract sets for household collection, which day the free bring-to-truck service runs, which company is licensed for each zone, and the numbers to call when the truck does not come. Zones 1 and 6 have no collector listed by KCCA, and the page says so rather than leaving a gap. It also sets out where the city's waste goes now that Kiteezi is closed.

How many units your money should give you at the rates ERA approved for July to September, where the money goes before it reaches the meter, and a check on a purchase you have already made. Units 81 to 150 cost less each than units 16 to 80 — that step is deliberate, and it makes cooking on electricity cheaper than the headline rate suggests.

Put in what you want to spend and see how many units it should give you, at the rates ERA approved for July to September. It shows where the money goes — the service charge that comes off your first purchase of the month, and any arrears — and lets you check a purchase you have already made against what it should have been. One thing worth knowing: units 81 to 150 cost less each than units 16 to 80, so electric cooking is cheaper than the headline rate suggests.

Nobody publishes what a taxi to town, a train ticket or a Bolt trip actually costs here, and the fares moved twice this year. Sign in, add what you paid, and the board shows the middle figure from recent reports. It needs a few reports per trip before it shows anything — one person's fare is not a price.

Pick your tariff, put in an amount, and see the units at Eskom's rates for 2026/27 — plus what they will run, from days of a fridge to hours of a bar heater. It also carries the 50 free units a registered household is entitled to each month, including Eskom's own statement that you do not have to buy anything to claim them, and lets you check a purchase you already made against the published rate.

The directory still named H.H. Williams Memorial Hospital on Gaetz Drive. It now lists the Hay River Regional Health Centre at 37911 Mackenzie Highway, with the main desk, the emergency department and the ambulance number. Also added 877-NWTFIRE for reporting a fire you can see, and the NWT Help Line.

It reads DriveNWT — the territory's own highway service — for the three stretches Hay River sits on, and shows what the Department of Infrastructure publishes for each: open, open with caution, or closed, plus any wildfire advisory or roadwork on it. It is not the evacuation call; that still comes from NWT Alert and the Town.

Many municipal utilities give each registered person a monthly allowance and charge double above it, so the rate a household pays depends on its size. The estimator now scales its rate bands by the number of people, shows the resulting bands as a table, and handles utilities that meter once and bill sewerage on the same volume.

Enter your monthly cubic metres and how many people are registered at your address, and it works out the bill at the proposed rates — including the 5.8 m³ per-person norm and the doubled rate above it. It shows what households pay now for comparison, and states plainly that the decision is still an unnumbered draft.

Scheduled outage queues have not been applied here for weeks, and a fault outage was never on any schedule. Tap your part of town — Центр, Дора, Ямна, Багривець or Микуличин — to tell neighbours the power is off. Reports fade after eight hours. Prykarpattiaoblenergo's free line, 0 800 50 40 20, is still the only place a fault gets logged.

Caste, community, income, nativity and possession certificates: the papers each one asks for, which office it goes to, what it should cost, and the time limit the state gazetted for it. It also sets out the right of appeal, which is rarely mentioned at the counter — including that the law changed in November 2025 and the second-appeal window is now thirty days, not sixty.

Pick whether you are driving up, bringing a tour bus, on a service bus, or living here, and see only the rules that apply to you. Every item carries the date it was announced, and where the reporting disagrees with itself — the two one-way schemes, the two lists of check posts — the page says so instead of choosing one. The entry fee is still only a proposal, and no rate has been fixed.

Nothing has been published about the road past the CSI church since 9 July, so this is drivers and residents telling each other. Tap a stretch — the Adimali climb, Gap Road, the town centre, the Marayoor ghat — to say whether it is clear, slow or blocked. Reports fade after six hours, and the District Collector remains the authority on any closure.

Towns whose electricity comes from one big reservoir can now show its published level, how that compares with the same day a year ago, and where it sits in the range the turbines run on — reading the operating authority's own weekly figures, with the authority named and linked. The property-tax estimator also learned about credits that are struck from the bill rather than from the taxed value, which is how Arkansas's homestead credit works and why it is worth the same to every owner-occupier whatever their house is worth.

Nobody publishes whether a downtown lot is full, so this is a board residents fill in: if you're signed in, tap a lot and say whether it has spaces, is filling up, or is full. Reports drop off after a few hours on their own. It reads alongside How Busy Is It? and Where to Park — the forecast, what people found just now, and where to leave the car. On a festival Saturday the park-and-ride and the trolley are still the reliable answer.

Enter what your home is worth and it estimates the Carroll County bill, showing the school, city and county parts separately — the official state millage for 2026 collections, applied to the 20% of value Arkansas actually taxes. It also puts the Amendment 79 homestead credit and the age-65 assessment freeze in front of you, because both are worth real money and both have to be claimed at the assessor's office. Neither is applied automatically.

Put in what you can store, how many people are in the house and how carefully you are using it, and it works out how many days that water lasts and what a day's ration looks like. The per-person figures are the published Sphere and WHO ones, and the arithmetic happens in your browser — nothing you type is sent anywhere or saved.

Load shedding is decided by how much water is in Lake Kariba, and the Zambezi River Authority publishes that level every week — including what it was on the same day a year ago. The new page reads it directly: today Kariba holds about twice the usable water it did this time last year. It shows where the level sits in the range the turbines can run on, and it says plainly what it is not — a lake level is not a shedding schedule, and only ZETDC can tell you about your own street.

River forecasts read the Rhineland-Palatinate flood service's own forecast bands, so a river town can see what the water will do rather than only what it is doing. Rail noise reads the Eisenbahn-Bundesamt's permanent measuring stations — freight-train counts and night noise levels, measured rather than estimated. The septic-tank planner works out the tank size a household needs from the official method, and is built for the many towns where most homes are not on a sewer. The electricity-subsidy checker also learned to let a household pick its own tariff, which makes it usable in every Mexican town rather than only the ones whose tariff is published.

La CFE quita el subsidio cuando el promedio de consumo de los últimos doce meses rebasa el límite de tu localidad. Escribe los kWh de tus recibos y la página hace esa misma cuenta y te dice cuánto margen te queda. La tarifa la eliges tú, porque viene impresa en tu recibo y la CFE no publica ninguna lista por localidad.

En Bacalar 93 de cada 100 viviendas con drenaje terminan en una fosa séptica, y otras 820 no tienen drenaje de ningún tipo. Esta página calcula, con el método publicado por la CONAGUA, qué tamaño de fosa pide una casa como la tuya; explica la medición de los 8 centímetros que decide de verdad cuándo toca vaciarla; reúne las reglas que aplican aquí —entre ellas que un pozo de absorción no puede ser el único tratamiento, algo más estricto que la norma federal— y detalla el trámite para pedir la conexión al drenaje y el aviso federal que es gratuito.

Die nächsten Abfahrten am Bahnhof, in Steeg und am Schiffsanleger auf einer Seite — Zug, Bus und Rheinschiff, live und mit Verspätungen.

Zum Bahnlärm gab es bisher nur Schätzungen. Diese Seite zeigt, was das Eisenbahn-Bundesamt tatsächlich misst: Güterzüge pro Nacht und Mittelungspegel, täglich fortgeschrieben. Seit der Sperrung der rechten Rheinstrecke am 10. Juli hat sich der nächtliche Güterverkehr auf unserer Strecke etwa verdreifacht. Zwei Dinge sagt die Seite offen: die nächste Messstelle steht rund 50 km entfernt in Andernach, und gemessen wird 7,5 m vom Gleis — das ist nicht, was am Fenster ankommt.

Die amtliche Vorhersage für den Pegel Kaub, rund 5 km flussabwärts — was der Rhein in den nächsten zwei Tagen macht, mit der Spanne zwischen der günstigsten und der ungünstigsten Rechnung der Bundesanstalt für Gewässerkunde. Dazu die amtliche Hochwassergefahr für den Abschnitt Nahemündung–Kaub, die Kennwerte des Pegels und die Reihenfolge, in der Bacharach nass wird. Die Warnung selbst spricht weiterhin die Hochwasservorhersagezentrale aus.

When Will My Street Be Plowed? said the clearing windows extend after a heavy snowfall without saying by how much. It now states the City's actual rule — a further 24 hours for every 8 cm beyond the 20 cm that triggers the declaration — with a worked example. The rest of the standard was re-checked against the City's page and is unchanged.

Finding a Family Doctor said the Urgent and Primary Care Centre took walk-ins only between 4 and 8 p.m. on weekdays. Northern Health now opens it to walk-ins from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at weekends and on holidays, so the page was closing a door that was open for eight hours of every weekday. Its phone number, 250-645-6900, was missing and has been added.

Active fires around the city, nearest first, with each one's stage of control and size, read from the national fire map. It also carries the things that are easy to miss until you need them: registering for evacuation alerts through the Regional District, why the alerting authority changes depending on which side of the Cariboo boundary a fire sits, and the number to call if you can see a fire nobody is working on. Smoke is a separate question — the Air Check page answers that one.

There is a new kind of tool, and it works for any town in the United States. EPA keeps a compliance record for every public water system in the country: how many people it serves, whether any drinking-water rule has been broken in the last three years, whether any of those were health-based rather than paperwork, whether lead or copper went over the action level, and when the state last inspected the plant. It is public and it is free, but it lives in a federal database that is not built for someone standing in their kitchen wondering about the tap. The new tool reads it live and says it in plain words, alongside the neighbouring systems — because the system that serves you is the one on your water bill, not the town line on your address. It is careful about what it is not. The record is a regulatory ledger, not a reading of what is in your tap this morning. States report to EPA quarterly, so it lags. It carries no boil-water notices, no pressure loss, no discoloured water. And sewer overflows are a separate federal programme, which matters in towns paying for a sewer decree. Where the record is unreachable or empty, the page says so rather than showing an all-clear. First live in Fort Smith, Arkansas, paired with a neighbour-reporting board for the question the ledger cannot answer: is the water off right now, and is it just my house?

Deux nouveaux outils, tous les deux autour de l'eau. **Qui appeler à Tahoua** rassemble les numéros vérifiés : les urgences (18 sapeurs-pompiers, 17 police-secours, 15 SAMU — pas le 112, qui ne marche pas ici), le dépannage NIGELEC, et surtout la **direction régionale de la Nigérienne des Eaux à Tahoua, +227 94 69 45 65** — le premier numéro proprement local pour l'eau que nous ayons pu lire sur une page officielle. La page dit aussi ce que nous n'avons pas trouvé : la NIGELEC ne publie pas le numéro de son agence de Tahoua, le CHR n'a pas de ligne publiée, et le tour de garde des pharmacies n'existe en ligne que pour Niamey. Nous préférons le dire plutôt que d'inventer un numéro. Un avertissement y figure aussi : le site nigelec.net n'appartient plus à la NIGELEC et renvoie vers un casino en ligne — le vrai site est nigelec.ne. **Récupérer l'eau de pluie** calcule ce qu'un toit peut recueillir. Entrez la surface du toit et le nombre de personnes : la page montre l'eau d'une année normale mois par mois, ce qui est réellement tombé ces 30 derniers jours, et combien de jours d'eau cela représente. Elle rappelle aussi que l'eau d'un toit n'est pas potable telle quelle, et comment la traiter.

Two new tools, both about the thing Fort Smith complains about most. **Your Drinking Water on the Record** reads EPA's compliance database live for Fort Smith Water Utilities and six neighbouring systems. Right now it shows no drinking-water violations on record for the city system in the last three years, 86,209 people served, and a state inspection in February 2026. It also says plainly what that record is not: it lags by a quarter or more, it carries no boil-water notices, no pressure or taste or colour problems, and the sewer overflows behind the consent decree are a different federal programme entirely. A clean drinking-water record and an expensive sewer decree are both true here, and now you can see both. **Water Watch** is the other half. Nobody publishes Fort Smith water outages in real time, so this one is neighbours: sign in, tap your part of town, and say the water is off or wrong where you are. Reports fade after eight hours, and when several people in one area report at once the board says so — which is the answer to "is it just my house?". It is not an official channel. Real problems still need the 24-hour utility line, 479-784-2342, and the page says so.

The bin-day service we read relays each council's own data, and sometimes that data still describes a container the way it worked last year. A town's page can now carry the council's current label and contents for a container, with the source cited, so the page and the reminder email both say what actually goes in it today. Towns can also limit reminders to the times that suit their own rules.

Tidal towns have a gauge that measures the sea rather than a river, and our reader was skipping it — so the one gauge that matters most in a surge town looked silent. It now reads those gauges too, shows the measured level, and says honestly when a gauge has no published typical range to judge that level against instead of pretending there was no reading.

Yellow, orange and red warnings from Veðurstofa Íslands for the region, in the Met Office's own words, with the wind at the head of the fjord beside them. It is worth reading next to the road page: a wind or snow warning is usually why Öxnadalsheiði or Víkurskarð shuts, and the warning normally comes first. The same feed now serves every Icelandic town on the platform.

The flight team decides at 6am and 6pm at Ashton Court and posts the call minutes later, so nobody knows in advance — including us. What the page does is show the forecast wind at the launch field against the eight-knot figure the CAA publishes for mass take-offs, point at the channels where the real call appears, and cover what doesn't depend on weather: parking that must be booked ahead, the bus that doesn't run on Sunday, and the free places to watch from.

Check whether an address is inside the zone, work out whether your vehicle is charged and what a week of driving in would cost, and see what is left of the exemptions. All ten of the exemptions Bristol created when the zone opened have expired — a blue badge no longer exempts anyone, while the disabled tax class on the V5C still does, automatically. We can't check a number plate here and the page says why; the official checker does that in seconds.
