The only problem with that is Rover way will need some serious upgrading - at present the road suffers from some severe potholes quite regularly - I suspect there are some long term ground problems which need fixing.

New video on the Eastern Link, doesnt really show much progress since the last but cool nevertheless.

Also looking at Queens gate roundabout, i didnt actually realise how much traffic the roundabout had.

I may be wrong but I think there was an officially designated route that was meant to be "reserved". I remember seeing an article about how environmental groups objected to the fact that the road would be along the shoreline, causing even more disruption to birds (just after the barrage flooded the Bay). I can't find any link to it now (any google search gets a whole load of stuff more recently). But I don't think the AtoZ maps were just making the route up.

Apologies for the poor image quality, but this early plan for the bay shows a foreshore route for the eastern PDR

I reckon suggesting the travelling community are tinkers responsible for fly grazing etc may be deemed by some as being racist. I'd say it was merely an observation in poor taste and not Racism.

Racism is surely treating others perceived to be different to yourself in a manner not consistent with how you would treat those perceived to be the same as yourself.

If I were to say that a certain segment of society enjoyed incest and searching in bins for food, would I be racist?

If I were to suggest that a certain group of people were disproportionately represented in crimes such as modern slavery, metal theft and cowboy roofing/paving, would I be racist?

Ash I don't think Paul is able to anything about some of the anti social behaviours of those living in the vicinity of Rover way, he only moderates this forum.

Maybe you could direct your misplaced liberal attitudes at those who actually cause cruelty and live in the vicinity.
Incidentally, this chap ignored the Asbo and went to prison again. I'm told the Police are too afraid to even visit the area unless they have armed backup. But like the taxi drivers in Rotherham, those who forgot or were too afraid to speak up, were in the end the ones most at fault and prolonged the suffering of young girls in that particular case.
