Pyes Pa Rd near Barkes Cnr Roundabout
Hi Residents, Can anyone please let me know what was achieved (apart from traffic chaos) by installing the ‘silent Policemen’ on the road side of the Bike Lane just before Barkes Cnr Roundabout on Pyes Pa Rd, which causes drivers to jerk away from them when they finally see them. Prior to there installation, the traffic broke from a single file to a double line back at Braithwaite or Stableford, which meant the traffic moved quicker with two lanes entering the roundabout. I get that we shouldn’t really drive over the Cycle lane but travelling at between 6:30am and 7:30am when most commuters are heading to work! I usually see a maximum of 4 Cycles and all are using the footpath, that seemed to allow everyone to work in tandem and everyone was happy. Fast forward to now, and the tailback goes right back from the Barkes Cnr Roundabout to 12 Acre Wood which is crazy that 8 Silent Policemen can cause traffic to back up like that. Please advise why the Council decided they were a necessity! I hope there is a sound reason apart from cheesing drivers off, or words to that effect , some of which I can’t print in this Post. Cheers
Shame on You!
This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
