Title: Let Children play by closing roads on Sundays Post by: grahame on May 05, 2011, 08:44:43 Health Minister Anne Milton has suggested we should help tackle childhood obesity by closing residential roads on Sundays so that everyone can play in them.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/8492997/Cars-could-be-banned-from-residential-roads-to-allow-children-to-play.html Does Ms Milton also encourage the provision of excellent local bus services and connecting trains on a Sunday too, so that those who have their cars trapped in the closed streets can go about their business? Come to think of it, true 7 day, all day and evening, public transport ain't such a bad idea for everyone else too ;) Title: Re: Let Children play by closing roads on Sundays Post by: devon_metro on May 05, 2011, 12:53:30 What an absolutely ridiculous idea.
