aldi breach half of planning conditions

Same principle, lower tech, smaller spread.

Fiendish Muslim weapon..?

From the look of it - Aldi car park aint going to be big enough!

Looks smaller than the one at Stone and that is cramped.

Traffic delays are inevitable.

 

[gilesjuk]

Are they enforcing a left turn when leaving? or will there be traffic lights?

Like they enforce the 'left turn when leaving' the Hough car-park?

I don't think it is signposted that it is supposed to be left turn only anymore.

Yeah, it looks like they've given up - the sign was turned round most of the time, anyway, and it was ignored from day one.

And rightly so because it shouldn't have been there in the first place.

If we had less restrictions and (particularly) less traffic lights round this town then traffic would flow much easier and pollution and blood pressure would fall.

But, then, what would we be paying these people to do?


Actually, the initial system could be quite exciting, if followed - people coming in from Riverway would rarely be anticipating a full circle of the roundabout to be the intention of somebody (apparently) going the other way, and would sail onto the roundabout anyway - I saw a few near misses.

When does it open? I'm sure the oldies told me it opens on the 19th of this month?

Well we could always sack them for utter incompetence. Oh no, it's the public sector so that'll never happen.

In which case I'd sooner pay them to do feck-all than pay them to feck-up!

 

[Gramaisc]

You'll have little chance of turning right out of this.

That looks like it could be a pelican crossing*, which could give you a chance, if the inbound queuers don't block you...

*but, it could just be tactile paving and a suicide crossing.

I was wondering this also

17th March.

17th March.

Same day as Waitrose in Uttoxeter?

If you say so.

 

[Gramaisc]

If you say so.

Merely trusting them - http://www.waitrose.com/bf_home/bf/599.html?tsrc=vdna&gclid=CMDytaX8ossCFY9uGwodGc4Axg&gclsrc=aw.ds

Bank Holiday in my house.

17th March.

Yep, Saw signs outside Aldi saying 17th March. All the fixtures, chip & pin machines etc were already in last week when I passed. ..

The roadwork warning signs at the top of Radford Bank say roadworks in that stretch for period 8 feb-18 March . They didn't actually start until 15th Feb, so if they run over a week it should be fun!

Funny... i did the same as you as I could've sworn there was a left turn arrow on a signpost opposite but on every google picture it wasn't there even back to 2009.

It certainly was there at the start.

 

[wildwood]

What are the legalities of observing just a white painted arrow on the road?
