The central island at Parley Crossroads has been blocked off to pedestrians preventing pedestrian access to shops and bus stops, even though there are not any works being carried out within 200 yards of the crossroads.
Suitable or alternative routes have not been laid out.
This results in pedestrians having to negotiate four lanes of extremely busy traffic to cross to the shops or to get a bus to Bournemouth.
I have contacted Dorset highways department only to be told that they are aware of the problem from previous complaints.
How many complaints or pedestrian accidents/deaths have to happen before appropriate action is taken?
