Baldwin Street in New Zealand has been named the World's steepest
residential street at 35%. John Murray from Murray Data caused a bit of a
stir by claiming St Marys Hill, Chester was steeper at 36%

but
was beaten down because it is no longer open to traffic.

Now the Beeb are looking for a challenger

"the road must be open to the public through pedestrians and motorised
traffic"

Anyone going to have a go?
