While gates like the one in the picture calm traffic by removing vehicle access, they don’t allow people on bikes to get through. We’ve asked Brighton and Hove City Council to replace these gates with a better solution.
We put this to February’s Council meeting, also webcast. The relevant bit starts at 0:24:00.
The gate below is at the junction of Natal Road and Dewe Road near the University of Brighton’s campus on the Lewes Road. There was no consultation on its installation and we would have liked to have been involved in its planning.
