BELIEVE it or not, this formerly pleasant grassy area at the junction of Clifton and Rawcliffe Lane and on a principal road into the city of York from the north is in a conservation area.
It has been ruined by cyclists dodging the traffic lights and recently by builders' vehicles.
The occupiers of houses facing have been asking the council for two years to stop cyclists as they fear they will run one down when emerging from their drives, but to no avail.
Furthermore, this part of Clifton seems to be unknown to the police.
What is the purpose of York Pride if the most inept city council I have known in 60 years lets a mess like this go on for two years?
