Quoted from brian
Sure, but postings that have no real relevance to Newbury either today or yesteryears, as I said, just get in the way of our threads on parking, traffic gridlock and the undiscernable ramifications of the SLI/WBC deals.
What?! No mention of the Implements of Death?  Have the bollards and the mayhem they cause dropped from public consciousness so much....?  Can someone arrange for another ramming to take place please.......

Quoted from MontyP
........nor is you trying to promote a publication that likes to bow to WBC and limit it's critisisn).....
OK... I've just found some bollards...  You're talking 'bollards'.  If you think the NWN likes to bow to WBC and limits bad comment then you must be reading a different paper from me...  (mind you I haven't bought a copy since the latest price hike)

To be fair to the paper, they hold the council to account more than most.

As there are now no longer buses or taxis in the pedestrian area when the bollards are up, it is now unlikely that we will ever get another bollard strike. Unless they are following a post office vehicle, or emergency services vehicle.

I wouldn't bet on that, you'll probably lose!
After all, the accidents can only happen when the bollards are in use, restricting access.
