The question must surely be who should have priority in places like Poynton or the one illustrated above, is it local people walking about doing there shopping etc or is it traffic basting through to Chester, the airport , Stockport and Hayfield and beyond.
Do we not all accept that there is a hierarchy on our roads and for traffic management schemes being pedestrians, horse riders, cyclists, public transport vehicles and finally car users.
If we as a society don't accept that we have a problem.
