Re: Pennine reach?
I've printed the leaflet out and it looks like its going to replace Elmans Folly or Church traffic lights, although there is no road names on the map. The only time the traffic flows with ease is when the lights arn't working so this should be a big impovement

Re: Pennine reach?
Road names are there albeit very faint. Henry Street is top right and Union Road is bottom left.
Toucans haven't replaced pelicans, they are a new alternate crossing for use on cycle routes and can be used by pedestrians as well.

A subtle play on words that is ---- 'two'can use it
the two- being cyclists and pedestrians

Doh! And here's me thinking they were crossings sponsored by a certain Nigerian lager brewer.
