Can't really see an apropriate forum for this ,so please move if necessary .

Mentioned some time ago that in keeping with other councils , our lot have made a perviously 30 road ( where 30 was only achievable at odd times) into a 20 ,and pedestrians have since begun to treat it as a "pedrestrians have right of way and priority"road. I've even seen one old bloke with a walking frame standing in the middle brick area trying to cross rather than at a nearby pedestrian crossing. In all the years I've lived in this town ,I've seldom ( if ever ) heard of RTA on this road . In the past two months i;'ve seen two that closed the road . I don't know the cause ,but it rather makes a mockery of lower speed = more safety .
