I can't think of another stretch of road with so many crossing points crammed into such a short space, even in places like the Kings Road which are shopping meccas. I know that the Lane is very busy at the weekends but still.... I was behind an ambulance earlier that was trying to get through to Kings and it kept having to slow right down for the speed tables and jiggle through our new road pinches, on a blue light run. Presumably the people who want this level of traffic 'calming' are those that are up in arms when the emeregency services can't keep to their arrival times. Stop the world please, I think I want to get off :'(

So, we are saying that between North Cross Road and the Goose Green roundabout we really need 4 crossings? In approximately a tenth of a mile? Or 7 in the half mile stretch between the Police station and East Dulwich Station? And then there is talk of skimming the GG roundabout to make transit through it quicker, which would contradict all of the above and our 2 new speed tables?

Surely our rampant benefits system already ensures that they have no need of these rewards as everything is laid out free on a plate from the get go and paid for by you and I? Sorry, but the way things are going, zero tolerance is looking like the only way forward and if that means my taxes are spent on building more jails, then at least I know they are not being wasted for a change.
