How many county council workmen days do you need to cross a road?

An awful lot apparently.  You may have noticed various stages of work next to the crossing of Victoria Way between Brewery Road car park and the Lightbox to the town centre.  This is intended to be a cycle crossing.

Work started last year in October, then had to pause during the Christmas period and then was set back by the refusal of the police to agree to change in the level of the road - so that had to come out.

Men in high visibility jackets were spotted examining the site a few weeks ago but I am not aware of any activity since that time.  News in August was that work was to start again in September. Its early in the month so you never know ...

If the whole long strung out project makes its first birthday in a few weeks time I plan to head out with a birthday cake to mark the occassion.
