Dangerous Pavement Cycling

I posted a comment on this subject, on a Sleaford Web Log, relating to a walk into Town down Northgate.

Dangerous Cycling

Added to that the BBC has recently published simialar articles highlighting the problem: click on image.

But it has implications also for Holdingham.

Pavement Cycling is a hazard: there are cycling lanes along the Lincoln Road from the end of York Road up to the Jolly Scotchman: after that the cyclists are supposed to use the road but has anyone ever seen this happen?

Someone will get badly hurt if something isn't done about it!

BOWLS CLUB PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

Questions are being asked!

More development on what is a green space has provoked opposition.

The area is an open space and used by young children as a play space. It means that they do not have to cross the busy, and dangerous, Lincoln Road to get to the play area there. A tragic accident has recently occured on the Lincoln Road immediately adjacent to where this development will be.

Opposition is again a major topic of conversation: in this case any extra traffic would have to be routed through York Road. Add this to other developments and a major problem arises. The photo above is outside the spot where the 97 Houses/Flats are to be built: adding more traffic onto this busy road.

Road Concern!
