It's entirely likely that it's just outdated data. However, it's not so much a part of a trend of disappearing phone booths, TUSMA is providing government money to Telstra for keeping about 20,000 phone booths active such that all Australians have reasonable access to one.
- grecy 14y agoWhen the safety issue blew up they asked the company about it and they confirmed the "mistakes" are intentional to catch copiers.
- quink 14y agoI checked the local Ausway map on street-directory.com.au and the phone booth that's on there is actually there, so based on a massive set of two data points and some intuitising in applying typical rates of intentional mistakes applicable to other data, like streets, it's probably only a few phone booths that are intentional mistakes.
