will someone please think of
will someone please think of the poor Bath city centre drivers. No wait, it sounds like the Bath Lib-Dems are:
“But […] many residents in and around the city centre, who are on very low wage, who own a car because they have to because of where they work or the type of work they do…”
council cabinet member for resources Richard Samuel shut down suggestions that a permit could one day be needed for cars to drive into the clean air zone, insisting: “We are not going to charge cars in the clean air zone. End of.”

Poor old car-dominated
Poor old car-dominated Lyndhurst, its high Street and main roads are a clockwise a one-way system, it is drivers’ gateway to all points south and east towards the coast.
It’s one of those places where the traffic engineers have given – there really isn’t any more they can do to deal with the summer traffic that builds most notoriously down the A337 coming off the M3.

Land Rovers are attacking other land rovers now. But don’t have a 20 mph and certainly not parking restrictions, eh Heather?

Gosh, these poor drivers, having to put up with crap road surfaces. Come on, RCC hive mind, let’s see if we can think of some things they could maybe do to stay out of [checks notes] pothole hell.

EDIT This weather update just in: wind in Devon “changes direction”
and back to drivers and their
and back to drivers and their problems: Mullion, much ado about a sign, no-one can possibly afford £3 to park their car cost of living and all. Then there’s Jed from Surrey: “This is supposed to be a free country,” he said. “I am ready to go to prison on the point of principle before I pay a penny to these scammers.” – file under W for “What Cars Do To People”.
It’s an interesting tale if true: 3 minutes in the car park and didn’t actually park – makes me more wary than ever of ANPR car parks. The touching part for me is that he’s taken all this time to try to engage with them – my father would have – actually, he had it right the first time with “scammers” – it’s just about the money. He’s kept all the letters as well, look – probably does carbon copies of the ones he sends too.

“whatabout the old people?”
“whatabout the old people?” What indeed – is anyone joining the dots on this, is it just our happy band?
Six crashes at Wokingham town centre junction leave people ‘scared’ to walk outside homes
“There are many older residents in this area, some of whom are scared to walk on the pavements outside their own front doors due to the speed of traffic and the frequency of collisions at this site. In the most recent example, residents were walking along the pavement just moments before the incident.
the driver has come
the driver has come southwards along the High Street and looks to have been doing quite a speed, huh? No doubt rushing a fridge to a dying grandmother, or bringing back 2 tonnes of groceries for the local orphanage.
you know those builders, I
you know those builders, I haven’t seen them in ages the ‘phone just rings and rings gosh is it two years doesn’t time fly yes I’ll try them again tomorrow
“Traffic lights are currently in place between Park Street and Atherton Crescent and will remain until it is safe to open both carriageways.
“It will take some time for a building’s owner to complete the repairs to make it safe, so the traffic lights are expected to be in place for between six and nine months.
This lucky.
