As you approach the tunnel from the Bristol side there is a metal fence...now broken and lots of branches behind what's all that about?.....its beginning to resemble a dumping ground still the same when I rode past some 50mins ago.....
What's this?. Some Bristol post reader not liking cyclists?.
That's just off Soundwell Road near my house. I frequently walk along it when going shopping. I did wonder what the Chapter 8 barriers (highways name) were for as there seemed to be no roadworks. They aren't there anymore.There was a woman whose house is on an alleged private lane which was part of the original diversion route. Instead of contacting the council to say she wasn't cricket about the arrangements like any normal rational person would, she instead decided to bury tacks in sand and put up some of those plastic orange barriers drunk students tend to borrow from roadworks. I haven't been past there in a while so I didn't know if she's still doing it.
