Residents in a Nottinghamshire town say they are concerned about the safety of a busy road which has inconsistent pavements for pedestrians. Families living on The Banks, Bingham say they are worried about the narrow pavements on the road, and say that because the pavement is inconsistent you would have to cross the road multiple times to walk from one end to the other.
Many families use the road to walk to the schools and nurseries in the town, and people with prams or in wheelchairs often have to use the road due to the narrow width of the paths. IT consultant, Jenny Craig, 62, said: "The real problem with The Banks is that there is no continuous footpath on either side of the road, and to walk from one side to the other you would have to cross the road multiple times.
"Given that this is the road the school is on the pedestrian access is really quite bad." Gesturing to the grassland either side of her drive, Jenny said: "It's not our land there so they could put a path in if they wanted to."
