The post you are reporting:
Thanks for all your replies and I will break down this post into 2 sections to tell you where this is going to happen.
Barry /Roger I expected you to disagree with me,but if KCC was run by the Labour Group and I disagreed with it I would still fight it not lay on my back and have my belly rubbed by them.The first thing I did was to get onto my KCC Cllr who agreed that this is stupid.
610 yes 610 barriers are going and as Gary said these barriers were put there for a reason,public safety and the problem is still there in fact the traffic volume has got worst.
Lets talk about cost,lets just say each barrier would cost £250 to take away and make good,I have on purpose gone for a low estimate because I don't know how much it would cost 610 x £250 = £ 152,500,remember this is a Council who are cutting Social care and everything they can how can they justify this money.
This policy reminds me of the Second World War (not that I was there) quick we need to melt down all the metal we can find! I recently saw a report on how much each accident costs the public purse and the numbers that were being quoted were incredible,but I can promise you this if these barriers are taken away there will be lots more pedestrians being injured.
KCC have also pulled a fast one,we would normally discuss this at Dover Joint Transportation Board,but the consulation period ends on 22 Jan,before we have a meeting! In my next post there will be where they are cutting out the barriers.
Ross on your way to work,Londoon Road.Bridge Street Junction,Biggin street,Ladywell and the roundabout at York Street/Folkestone Road but the major concern is outside Schools especially Primary and in the Town Centre.
