Hal9001 Â Â 11 #1 Posted June 20, 2015 I think it is a crazy to have a pedestrian crossing on the Parkway, especially on the 70mph part. I have never seen anyone use it but it is there. See Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Hal9001 Â Â 11 #5 Posted June 20, 2015 I think it is important to remind people of possible dangers out there on the roads. Perhaps some people haven't noticed the crossing. Certainly some people I talk to are unaware of it. Â ---------- Post added 20-06-2015 at 09:28 ---------- Â I feel really sorry for you. Â Oh and thanks for the kind thoughts.

scimsfan   10 #6 Posted June 20, 2015 At quiet times of the day it's no more dangerous than crossing any main road. It's location has a clear view in both directions. The crossing on Commercial Street near Fitzalan Square is more dangerous when the lights aren't working ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

The fact that it is even there at all on an NSL section of road should, IMO, catch everyone's eye and make them think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
