Main Street Mayhem
Trevor Hammond, GSD Transport spokesman said "I have deliberately avoided comment on the situation in Main Street and Irish town in order to give the Government an opportunity to demonstrate that their cycle lane scheme can work.
"All that has been demonstrated is that not only is the scheme not working, but that a dangerous situation has been allowed to develop due to a total lack of resource applied to policing the scheme. We now have a situation where cyclists and scooters are using the poorly defined cycle lanes at all hours of the day, at speed and often in the wrong direction and with complete disregard for the safety of pedestrians. It is an accident waiting to happen.
"To make matters worse, the new phenomenon of motorised scooters, which seem to fall outside of the law yet which travel at high speed wherever their riders choose, road, pavement or pedestrianised zone, seem to be completely ignored by the authorities."
