Bus drivers have no end of problems with railings. At the junction of Haleys
Terrace and Huntington Road the Number 5 buses have trouble turning left
onto Huntington Road, not just because of the railings, but because of the
awkwardly-placed traffic island.
It is also a regular sight to see number 9 buses having trouble turning
right at the junction of Leeman road and Station Road. The driver grounding
a vehicle against the rainings was inevitable.
Maybe the council should remove some of these unnecessary obstacles to make
drivers' lives easier.

Do you agree? Or do you think pedestrian safety is best served by keeping
the barriers? Do you have any other thoughts about road safety in York? Drop
