@ChrisHarper93 Article on @LeicsCountyHall Pothole Pro. Their assessment is fundamentally incorrect in my opinion. The many highways authorities using the Pothole Pro are seeing great success. Why???

This is really disturbing. Labour are looking at VPN bans, overnight curfews and introducing total State control of the internet.

A member reports that #Derbyshire Highways say they have repaired a large #pothole which was only reported to them yesterday morning.
Good for them.
Has anyone else experienced such efficiency in Derbyshire?

This explains why the trams lobby in the UK is being funded by transnational climate change organisations, which in turn are bankrolled by "globalist" billionaires. Moreover they're now trying to infiltrate "free market" and conservative groups.

Tram schemes are really about advancing the anti-car agenda by providing a pretext to shut roads to traffic, reduce lanes, ban parking etc. Expensive, disruptive and inflexible, they make little sense in terms of the economy or public transport provision. bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristβ¦

This is a comprehensive assault on the public's mobility, overtly designed to push drivers out of their cars and reduce car ownership. The economic costs from the extra delays, reduced access to jobs and lost economies of scale will be gargantuan. gov.uk/government/news/cycliβ¦

Iβve lost count of how many u-turns this useless @UKLabour government have made but this one is an imperative if we are to secure the future of our carmakers rather than let them keel over and die out.
As @kemibadenoch and I have called for since December, @Heidi_Labour needs to show some gumption and get on with reversing the ZEV mandate thatβs screwing over our carmakers pronto.
@Conservatives have a clear policy, itβs time for Labour to get on board

.@AndyBurnhamGM for example, who on earth puts level surface with no tactile paving at a green man controlled pedestrian crossing, which leads onto the main route into Manchester. Words fail on how blind peoples safety and accessibility has been ignored. x.com/nfbuk/status/179320336β¦
@AndyBurnhamGM @Mark_J_Harper this new schemes is in Castleton, Rochdale in Greater Manchester. It is unsafe & totally confusing, the cycle lane routed through the pavement, which you have to cross to get to the green man crossings. The tactile is a mess & extremely dangerous.
ALT The pavement has a cycle lane running through the middle which is has kerbs either side. There is a dropped kerb with beige tactile on the corner of the pavement which crosses over the cycle lane (beige colour) onto a tarmaced island. The elongated island has a controlled crossing on one end and another one on another side of the junction. Both have red tactile laid where it meets the road. However one of the controlled crossing points there is no tactile where it is level surface with the road which is very dangerous. On this controlled crossing there is just one pole with a push button crossing on it.
ALT This shows the elongated island with the one traffic pole with the one green man control box. It shows the red tactile paving and the lack of red tactile paving on the dropped kerb where it meets the road. This is not safe or accessible and is down right dangerous.
