General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Sledge ,
rather than immediately going on the defensive all the time just take a moment to consider if the comments made might be constructive in what they say.
Trust me he was one of 'yours' as I said ,my approach was calm, pollite and intended to point out that which was an immediate shortcoming in many locals opinion.
I am not aware that anyone either on this forum or elsewhere has critised the improvement has made both to traffic and particularly with the controlled crossing points.
As one who holds qualification and practical experience in Highway construction,traffic management and the management of H&S I do speak with just a little knowledge sufficient to know that the greatest contribution to the measurement of safety is that which can be gained from near misses with no accident or damage .
Near misses occur on a daily basis on this aspect of the junctions design fact.
