Free Bristol Primark Parking

The very street names "Horsefair" and "Haymarket" remind us how at one time our ancestors, the city's gentry, went about their business on horseback, generously helping the city's economy by providing jobs for your ancestors, the city's poor, grooming the horses and cleaning the streets after them.

It's still the case today, as we motorists create useful employment in a range of workplaces from car-washes to hospitals. But the respect has gone. Even the city council will only allow tax-dodging cyclists and pedestrians the freedom to turn from Haymarket into the Horsefair.


Therefore we admire the driver of S988RVM who has asserted his ancient right to stop where he wishes in the centre, while
forcing any cyclists to dismount as a demonstration of respect.

First Bus marketing

To encourage the adoption of practical transport solutions in a congested and polluted city, FirstBus take advantage of the size of their buses and their ubiquity in the inner cities, by covering them in advertising designed to encourage citizens of the city to adopt clean, efficient and sustainable transport solutions.


Or in this case, motor cars.
