HUMAN ROAD BLOCKS Birkdale / Salisbury Rd intersection
AT INTENDS TO USE THE THE RESIDENTS / ROAD USERS OF SALISBURY ROAD AS HUMAN ROAD BLOCKS.
From AT re Birkdale / Salisbury Rd intersection.
“Lane capacity on Birkdale and Salisbury – the kerb buildouts on Birkdale Road opposite Salisbury Road reinforce broken yellow lines on Birkdale Road and stops vehicles from undertaking vehicles turning right into Salsibury Road. This is designed to slow operating speeds approaching the school crossing on Birkdale Road and increase intersection safety.”
SO WHEN YOU ARE WAITING TO TURN RIGHT INTO SALISBURY RD, VEHICLES CAN NOT PASS – SO BACK UP BEHIND YOU. NOW WE, AND THOSE WAITING BEHIND US, HAVE THE GREATLY INCREASED RISK OF BEING CRASHED INTO FROM THOSE COMING DOWN BIRKDALE ROAD!! BEING USED AS A HUMAN SPEED REDUCING ROAD BLOCK.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
