Bicycles & Scooters, 26th June

Mon, 26 Jun 2023 11:34:06 +0100
51.015655 -4.205826

I live in Lower Meddon Street. It is 1 way up! Bicycles use it as a fast way down to New Road. They’re reaching speeds of at least 30mph. When advised of 1 way up I am showered with obscene verbal abuse - ‘It’s a f**** bike! Etc. are bikes not suppose to follow the rules of the road?? Likewise, young children going home from school on their scooters - They use the same short cut at extraordinary speeds - with squeals of encouragement to each other —— until a car comes around the corner. These children would not be able to stop in Time - and the mind boggles at the outcome! There are never parents accompanying and I’m sure they don’t want the inevitable knock on the door by the police - with tragic news. Rarely are helmets worn Their safety worries the life out of me. Please do something. ??
