The decision to use Kingpin cylinders
The decision to use Kingpin cylinders
Initially, it appears that a proposal was made that standard traffic bollards would be used to demarcate the cycle lane, i.e., the conical type of moveable, unfixed traffic bollard that is often seen on construction sites or building works. This was the scheme which was in place on 13th June 2019.
The Court can be satisfied that that was the case as it was the date on which an active roadworks patrol took place when photographs were taken. However, as noted above, feedback was received by the Defendant after that active roadworks patrol took place on 13th June 2019. The patrol consisted of Michael Barratt, the Development Impact Assessment Manager from TfL, Jono Kenyon from HCC, Madeline Pelzel from LCC and Councillor Richard Lufkin from LBHC. The “All Inclusive Cycling and Walking at Roadworks report” was at [871-889]. I noted, in particular, the observations and suggestions (marked in red, but in italics below) within that document:
