Via the 'Roads fit for people' campaign, comes this rather heartening email:
"Today's local paper says that the Liquorpond Street lights, turned off experimentally [last] year, are to be permanently removed. And about a mile away, at the other end of the inner by-pass, the lights at the Wide Bargate roundabout are to be turned off experimentally next month.
Perhaps Boston will become the nation's first traffic lights-free town! I'm old enough to remember the time when we had a traffic lights-free county, Cornwall."

Boston's traffic lights

I can remeber when everyone wanting to do the driving test in Dumfriesshire had to do it in Dumfries, which ad the only traffic lights in the county. How did they cope on Cornwall?
I reckon they're moving all these traffic lights to High Wycombe. The traffic planners have gone berserk and the damned things are sprouting everywhere.
If their aim is to make it such a pain that nobody will go in to the town then they are succeeding. It now takes me nearly 30mins to do what was a 10 min journey
