Drummond's dangerous disgrace

 

Dear Spurtle,
 

Having lived in Bellevue Road for over 20 years, I can't remember a time when the crossing opposite Drummond Community High School was functional. 
 

I do remember the light in the middle never worked. And the day that the raised island sections were removed, which I hoped would mean it all was being removed. 
 

But no, a lamppost was left unlit and unmarked in the middle of the road. I complained to the Council who added a round Keep Left sign to the lamppost. Over the intervening years, more temporary signage has been added, and flattened, and added again. 
 

You don't need a degree in Transport Management (although I do have one) to realise the current arrangement is unsafe and unsightly.
 

How much longer must we endure 'Drummond's Disgrace'?
