Nothing has been done. The situation became even more dangerous in recent high winds, when boards were all over the place. They are blocking routes in many streets and are hazards to visually-impaired people.

Useless in respect of ensuring the safety of disabled people.

It is as bad as ever. It has been discussed at a council meeting, apparently, but every day is hazardous for disabled people. I and another disabled friend have made several previous reports about this matter and it is shameful that the council has been taking no notice of the reports from disabled people until an organisation such as the RNIB gets involved. They should act upon reports from disabled people who actually live here.

Action has been taken in some areas but many others are bad, such as Widcombe which is now really hazardous, as cyclists are supposed to use part of the pavement but ride anywhere ,there are lots of A boards, tables and chairs, a useless bench and cycle racks all in the way.
