If I lived on that street, I would set up a tyre garage, alloy wheel refurb place and bodyshop nearby 😁

Presumably this is deliberate, to discourage SUVs and other larger vehicles from that lane whilst letting through smaller ones - I think it needs more signs on approach (like a similar #TrafficCalming scheme in Britain would use), but surely its obvious to those in larger #cars that their vehicle may not easily fit through that gap, and they should take the lane to the left?

City of Vienna has created new traffic calming concept in some neighborhoods aiming to reduce and eliminate the transiting car traffic. Inspired by Barcelona's Superblock,but in Vienna it is #Supergrätzl. They use so called the transport filters,which are the physical barriers to make obstacle for cars. #mobility #trafficcalming #vienna #superblock

Just thinking about how much it must cost a community to install and operate #traffic citation cameras, and the real social and economic costs of that kind of #surveillance, #policing, and #punishment, when they could have just installed static #TrafficCalming #infrastructure that harms no one and require very little ongoing financial inputs.

The #BostonSafetySurge was an innovative program from @wutrain.bsky.social & @jfh01.bsky.social to end the "Hunger Games" style contest between neighborhoods for speed humps and fast track this best practice for #TrafficCalming Love to see Cambridge following suit! @mass.streetsblog.org

Safety boost for Llanelli’s ‘danger road’ after series of collisions

Station Road and New Dock Road, which run through densely populated residential areas between the town centre and the coast, have long been highlighted as accident hotspots.

Carmarthenshire County Council’s road safety team has confirmed that a programme of improvements will be rolled out during the current financial year. The measures include the installation of raised tables at key junctions and side road crossings, designed to slow vehicles and improve pedestrian safety.

Road safety engineer Martin Owen said the interventions aim to reduce vehicle speeds in areas of high risk, particularly near crossing points used by children and other vulnerable road users.

“By reducing speeds, these measures will enhance driver awareness and reaction times, while also encouraging active travel by creating a safer environment for walking and cycling,” he explained.

Local councillor Andre McPherson welcomed the move, saying:

“Sadly this action has come too late to prevent a string of casualties over recent years, some of which have been fatal. But hearing that improvements are now coming is very welcome, and we hope the safety programme will save lives in the future.”

The safety programme follows a number of serious incidents in recent years. In 2023, a fatal collision on Station Road prompted renewed calls for urgent improvements see our previous coverage here.

The works come as Llanelli prepares for wider transport investment, including proposals for a new multi‑modal transport hub at the town’s railway station read more here.
