[Image taken 10.7.21] Marygate car park, York. [Note: There is no street view at this location.] The lighting was not on, on the hoardings again today. For once I was able to get an image that shows how dark it is. (The lights don't continue the full length of the hoardings either.) There are two cones in here now. Trip hazards, crash obstacles. This is NCN65. It is the cycle-ped-wheelchair-hire scooter/hire bike route between the rail station and residential areas of the city plus leisure and tourist options. The message from this city this year feels as if it's survival of the fittest. (See also: #171369, #170166, #170130, #169767, #171729, #171491, #171436, #171580.) This could be such a good city for all ages, all levels of ability and lack of fitness, all levels of mental and visual impairment. But with the lack of disabled provision (drop kerbs) and cracked pavements at any time and the lack of level, logical and safe provision for diversions (search on 'wellingtonrowesplanadelivediversion' and 'terryavenuelivediversion') CYC is not meeting its responsibilities for disabled people, and failing its residents and tourists. Other images today see: #171839, #171840, #171841, #171842.
