While this picture was being taken, the council staff were saying that they don't want me interfereing as this is not a formal site visit and it would not be fair for me to make representations without the architects being present too.
This is a good point, and one we in Bristol Traffic agree with. Henceforth, when David Bishop has a meeting with George Ferguson without any minutes being taken, we expect to be invited and given equal talking time.
Clearly the traffic segregation markings (cycles one side of the path, pedestrians on the other) only apply to ordinary mortals - not exalted beings like elected councillors. Or are councillors wandering at will being trialled as the preferred method of traffic calming on the Railway Path? I think we should be told.
ReplyDeleteThe developers Squarepeg got favoured access to the Development Control Committee. They were able to make a presentation to the Committee last year but objectors got no such opportunity.
