Footpath with slippery mud, 20th December

50.806709 -1.896077

Last night I slipped on mud on the path between Mayfield Drive and Bramley Road. My shoulder slammed into the fence. Luckily no real injuries but it could have been worse. My three year old son slipped over here a few weeks ago. According to the OS map this is a public right of way and is regularly used by local residents. It would be good to see the whole of this path resurfaced not just half of it. Thank you.

Traffic Light Sequence Overlaps, 4th November

Sat, 04 Nov 2023 14:44:24 +0000
50.798813 -1.893738

I'm seeing so many drivers jump the red light here, it's hard to tell if they are actually jumping the red from the Longham direction. However what is clear is that both Ringwood Road and Church Road are at red/amber at the same time. How can that be safe? I'm concerned that there is not enough delay between the cycles to ensure the road is clear ahead when the Church Road light turns green.

The old lights were efficient. the new lights are inefficient., 21st September

Thu, 21 Sep 2023 16:22:17 +0100
50.805358 -1.917678

With the lovely new T junction [with closed cycle lane crossing still incomplete 2 months after workers left it] We now have the lights on timer control. not sensor control like the old lights had. I thought we were sold that being sensor controlled meant that they are more efficient for both keeping vehicles moving e.g. if no vehicles waiting, then that junction is red and it will be green for a junction that has vehicles waiting. instead of timer and causing traffic to stop or be waiting and watching an empty junction with a green light. Instead the inefficiencies mean vehicles idling for 2-3 minutes engines running [not all have auto start-stop] and queues generated due to having watch an empty lane on a daily basis have a green light. Fundamentally, an upgrade for cyclists. but a downgrade for vehicles and the environment with more queues and idling engines.
