AFTER all the words spoken and written on the subject, we are left puzzled by City of York Council's decision to allow some recently-installed double yellow lines to be replaced by parking meters.
Surely double yellow lines are to facilitate the safe and efficient flow of traffic where indiscriminate parking would impede either or both of these aspects.
Does the decision mean that safety and efficiency may be sacrificed on the altar of Mammon?
We are puzzled, but, then we are just simple voters. An explanation would be most welcome.
Mr and Mrs J Wartho,
Eastfield Lane,
York.
