Anyone know why we are being counted in and out of Silsden AGAIN!

... and what do they (whoever is doing the counting) do with all the statistics? Has the traffic changed that much over the last year.

.... and where can we see the results of all this counting of vehicle numbers entering and leaving Silsden?

Is that why there was a long queue to Howden Road at 9.30am?

Where were they counting?

Alan, they are using the black strips across the road on Keighley Road, this side of the Aire Bridge, and there is another at the top of Skipton Road by the boundary sign and I assume at the top of Bolton Road (haven't been that way lately).

If the two strips are close together they are counting, if they are about 1m apart they are being used to get your speed - these are close together.

Obviously he does!

The surprising thing is that I seem to remember that when they last did the excercise on Bolton Road that the figures were in the region of 11k.

I came across this document. It does have some traffic figues from a 2006 survey and the report looks at the facilities for Sykes Lane Development through "rose tinted specs" laugh :D www.planninginbradford.com/WAM/doc/Supporting%20Information-492669.pdf?extension=.pdf&id=492669&location=VOLUME1&contentType=application/pdf&pageCount=17

Peter - it was just a joke. I am hardly the only person to go off topic am i?
...and i only react to offcumden and claymoaning when offcumden said "i don't care about anything you have to say" and claymoaning saying "does he think he's funny"
But i apologise and i will behave from now on happy :)

Just asking people their opinions Mr Melon, I would know funny if it hit me in the face. Just a shame you're not even remotely funny.
