[Image taken 18.11.22] Burton Stone Lane, York. This local resident was happy to pose for a photo. He said he'd already written three emails to CYC about the new layout and would be writing another today. He is not actually moving and his pose is therefore slightly unnatural. However it serves to illustrate that the Aboard reduces the width of the pavement to less than the space a pedestrian requires (at least 1m when moving) and that you need to turn slightly to be able to pass without touching the sign. Further, crocodiles of pupils use these pavements. They are unprotected from motor traffic and pollution while they do so. Context/overview and links see: #187753.
