Why do councils spend so much on pedestrian safety at crossings, adding sight lines, lights, safety islands when Vancouver have a simple effective safety solution..

There are of course other safety options that may be more effective 😉

The link doesn't open for me, but if this is a more effective means for road crossings then contact DfT.  If I can have the link I will speak to my many contacts on road safety.  I expect they are up to speed on alternatives, but you never know.

There was a story many years ago about the match company Bryant and May losing money.  Some consultants were brought in and said the answer is simple.  Just have the sandpaper on one side.  It's a total urban myth, strike anywhere matches always had sandpaper just in one side.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)

      Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.

      Is that a fact or an opinion?

      I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
