Letter to the Editor: Shared spaces are just that - and everyone should respect the rules
BAD outcomes make poor teachers. No one pedestrian or cyclist starts their outing with the intention of things going wrong.
Shared spaces are just that – shared – and everyone needs to respect the rules and have their wits about them.
Perhaps the council could consider a coloured road marking to alert everyone where cyclists can go and pedestrians need to be aware they are not the only users of the space.
Think for a moment the much more common dangers associated with main road use by both cyclists and pedestrians.
