I live on Mayow Road - we have a lovely new hump just outside our house. Being a little 'split' hump, it doesn't slow anyone down, just keeps us awake at night as people speed over it, ker-thunk ker-thunk.
What I actually wanted to post about (and forgive me if you've all talked about this before, just wanted to add my voice) is the junction between Perry Vale and Waldram Place. Since the road was narrowed here, if you get just one illegally parked car, you get grid lock. One night a few months ago, I turned from Waldram Place into Perry Vale to find cars parked on either side all the way up to the subway, and, because visibility isn't great there, the cars carried on coming down Perry Vale even though I had already turned. I ended up nose to nose with a whole line of cars, and had a whole line behind me trying to turn out of Waldram Place. Not the fault of anyone except whoever had parked on the red route. After about ten minutes of honking and shouting, someone came out of the Crystal Pall hall (I think that's the name of the place) and moved one of the illegally parked cars, and we all slowly shuffled in and out of that one free space to get moving again.
I can see this happening again all too easily, especially with the buses and coaches that use this route daily. I'm not just speaking for drivers here - my husband cycles this way every day. The junction has such a tight turn into Waldram Place since the pavement was widened, cars take a wide swing at it, and he has nearly been knocked off his bike several times.
I agree that pedestrians need a proper crossing. The raised area outside the subway is actually really dangerous, because it actively encourages people to cross at a point where cars find it very hard to see them.
And finally (pauses to catch breath) - I agree they have made a pig's ear of the resurfacing at the station / post office car park. Looks pretty, but even less safe than before. Pedestrians step on out not noticing it is a busy entrance, because the road surface is all one level. Cars are encouraged by the new surface to pull right down to the curb before they stop to make the turn. Very poor.
