[Image taken 29.11.21] Burton Stone Lane between the junction with Field View and Crichton Avenue, York. Note the vehicle parked close to the front of the charity shop opposite the junction with Field View. Note the amount of space the truck takes up. Despite the limits on space for all users, Burton Stone Lane is a key north-south link, has a bus route, and when Gillygate (parallel, on the other side of the rail line) is closed, buses from there, plus the motor traffic, get diverted or find its way to here. Driving speeds are (too) high and 'people' are at best tolerated but really, I think, intentionally intimidated by many drivers. A pro-vehicle bias exists: see: #176418 and #176419. There's also rat-running in the narrow streets between here and the railway. Other images here today: #176464 and links.
