The recently improved crossings at side-road junctions by Westminster City Council are both safe and comfortable. So, we ask, should innovations like these also be applied to other places where people struggle to cross a road, such as crossings at roundabout junctions? In addition, should places where pedestrians are intended to have priority be fully acknowledged as give way zones? Not forgetting the law and traffic implications as well as the practical issues of action: construction and costs.
