Chaos in Stone. Grt Bridgeford to Cresswell and Woodseaves flooded. Funny if all the cars in new rugga club were cut off.

Nobody mentioned that the Waterside Carpark under M & S had been flooded. I was there today it was being worked manually as the barriers and machines were out of order and the lifts out of order with flooded cess, the walls had a tide mark! Also a noticeable stink.

I saw it posted somewhere(can't remember where it was) on Sunday saying the barriers were up and letting people onto one of those carparks , basement flooded, and chaos as no spaces but people still piling in.

I think the carpark was designed to be flooded to protect the surrounding area.

The same idea was planned some years ago when they were going to put a multi on kingsmead

Nobody told procurement that when they were buying the barriers, evidently.
Any money they’ve made on parking fees has just been blown on new machines.

Yep, a black 4x4 pick-up truck is embedded under a fuel tanker on the main entrance to Asda so police have closed the junction. All traffic in the car park is trying to get out via the goods entrance so it is effectively grid-locked. I've had to leave my car there and am walking home. I got the folks in Asda to put my car on the system so I don't get a parking ticket.

Most people were driving like maniacs when me & hubby had a walk by Weeping Cross islands this evening. I missed what happened to cause 2 lorries, a van and cars swerving and blasting horns , as I was pointing out glass on the road and pavement from what must have been a previous accident.
Think everyones trying to make time up after getting stuck in the town delays.

The fun thing about public tenders is everything is split up as much as possible.
Which is why Queensway is a mess of cones right now. Even though they probably won’t get it to it for a few days they’ve closed off a lane all the way from Kingsmead to the Asda lights opposite the loading bay for Riverside. It would make a lot more sense and be far less disruptive to cone in sections but a separate company probably does the cones... so it’s just done all in one go
Of course that’s just my interpretation. They may also just do it for shits and giggles
