Quincentary bridge and University Rd roadworks

Chicken1 · 2011-08-22 11:23:57

Avoid the new bridge its chaos there both ways due to roadworks, I never saw anything in the papers about the new bridge works only University Road, who in the Council would sanction two main roads to the West being worked on at the same time. University road is also a no go area. :mad:

Unfortunately we do need to be pedantic

I thought it was similar to the cheap shot that is thrown out in the Motors forum periodically when someone refers to motor tax as car tax. If Iwannahurl was being pedantic for a different reason then I apologise, please pedantasize away :cool:.

Well Sniipe has probably scared them off with this post so we may never know .

Time to chip cyclists like we do dogs so we can charge the cnuts €80 a pop for crashing traffic lights. :cool:

Can we charge them for wearing dark clothes and cycling at night with no lights too?

We can, the guards will love the 'drive by' revenue opportunities.

I know this is OT (though clearly tax related, which is clearly infrastructure related) but who is doing the wasting. You originally said it was the Council itself.

Through leaky pipes in the mains network I guess.
Over the next year they are to segment and meter the mains network which they hope will allow them to find and fix the leaks.

This thread hasn't been about the roadworks for some time now so I don't see a reason for it to be open.
A fresh one can be started if need be.

General discussion on cycling in the city can go here.
