Title: Short cut..(illegal)
Post by: Uncle on December 05, 2013, 11:05:35 am
Here's a trick.....if you are in Parkway ,and need to get to the station,or south of town,just drive through the car park to Northbrook st,turn left over the bridge to Market place,and save going all round the ring road .....like the motorist who nearly knocked my wife over yesterday! Needs some sort of barrier by Boots to stop this.

Ooh yes!  But let's have some bollards, much more fun. ;D

The council have looked at that before but because of underground services, manhole covers BT lines and other impediments have not been able to safely install a removable bollard.  This entrance comes out from Camp Hopson car park.  They should be putting a barrier/bollard up  to stop vehicles illegally using this entrance into a pedestrian area.
