Delighted to report that the new pedestrian crossing on Cotham Road is now operational.Councillor Alex Woodman and I went along for a brief opening ceremony with students from Cotham School, their Headteacher and the chair of the Neighbourhood Partnership. Ribbons were cut - but, sadly, no-one from the Evening Post came along to record the moment or the work that the students and others had put into getting the crossing installed.
Anyway, it was great to see the crossing being used by 'real people' - a dozen or so in the 20 minutes that we were there - proving that it is indeed in a useful place for students at the school and local residents alike. Alex and I are both really pleased to see the Neighbourhood Partnership idea working in practice and pleased to have helped by securing the necessary funds.
