Hasn't planning been refused? Anyway, they'll have done ok. Same as them at Meary Veg. Yes, saw that. All those plans and that building "of significance" demolished. All for nought now.

But then of course that's the simple answer as it doesn't require a plethora of design engineers/consultants, surveyors, building contractors, DOI staff admin staff to man a website telling them that they're only 2 years behind schedule but all will be oK. To work that way would require all the houses that are currently connected to the sewer system would have to be disconnected. Then they would all have to install septic tanks in their gardens (if they have them). Septic tank systems are suited to rural locations where there is space bit not in urban locations....imagine a flat. The Victorians worked this out centuries ago....if not even the Romans!. That's why I said think about it and why your suggestion is totally impractical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these were normal pedestrian crossings a new coat of Dulux Extra Brilliant White (or retroreflecting material as in the regs.) would sort it out. But I don't see how these blocks can be cleaned up. But never-mind, these crossings are not legal zebra crossings so there is no requirement for traffic to stop. Flattening a pedestrian is not a good idea, but if/when there is an accident I assume it will be treated in the same way as if the pedestrian had wandered out into the middle of any other bit of road.

The zebra crossings on The Promenade worked best before they put the lights on them about 20 years ago. Traffic use to stop when people approached the crossing and they were used as intended, and the situation was more efficient for everyone. The problem was they were was not too useful for people who were blind. Expect the lights to return and probably the regulation crossings too.

The reason the Promenade has cost so much was to ensure there was a proper foundation beneath. Hence why they didn't just resurface it (as they did with Central Promenade) at a mere fraction of the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
