Worsening pedestrian space in the name of safety

Earlier this year, Warwickshire County Council applauded itself on the installation of a new guardrail barrier by a school, yet in doing so it has reduced pavement width, apparently ignoring DfT guidance on accessible space.

Proposals for new Manchester – London train service announced http://dlvr.it/T91MKJ #Atherstone #Birmingham #Class730 #Crewe

Here's some vintage footage... well 1998 (and that's nearly ancient!) of the #Ashourne #Shrovetide game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43cYNIujujU

What most outsiders (which I am) don't get is that it's not the all-out violence fest that other #Shrovetide games can be, like the #Atherstone game. #Atherstone is every man for himself. #Ashourne's game is about community, playing hard yes but also looking out for each other.

Notice how, about 6 mins the group is told to back off, and does, when an injury occurs
