Free for all Silsden kids up to the sixth form.

Think it's half fare they pay in the sixth form with a pass.

Looking on this page
www.bradford.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/A0C2F740-D309-408B-8602-11965250676A/0/2006HometoSchoolCollegeTravelPolicyFINALAugust2006.pdf

I wonder if making Keighley Road 40mph will allow it to be classed as a "safe walking" route and bring half of Silsden back into the 3 mile limit for paying.

How can it when kids would have to cross the by-pass? Added to that, by no stretch of even Bradfords imagination is there any safe route remotely near three miles, even with a safe by-pass crossing. It ain't gonna happen!

It's a shame when Bradford use some commonsense for once and reduce the speed limit to 40mph from the national speed limit that we have to criticise them, and imagine future problems.

I can't really believe that anyone with any experience of driving at thinks it is safe to do 60mph in that stretch anyway!

Our energies would be better spent campaigning for a crossing of the by-pass so that people can use the station safely.
