@Carer There is no need to shout. Whatever the reason(s), people are crossing that road in a dangerous manner. Given that they are doing so, it seems to me that precautions need to be taken to reduce the likelihood of their continuing to do so. If we have road markings and signs for drivers indicating danger I don't see why we shouldn't have similar for pedestrians. And I have seen ...

Perhaps the fencing (sorry don't know proper name for it) along the pavement could be extended further down towards Harrison's? I don't drive very often but when I do it is usually to the station and back and I cannot tell you the number of times I have come across people crossing the main road between where the fencing stops near Emerald Deco and the road crossing just a bit further down.

To get the ball rolling for the Transition group I offered to start this thread so that if anyone has any comments they like to make/would like to be involved with the group you ...

Well done all at Dawlish Community College.

I understand that over the next 20 years or so it's planned that a lot of house building will take place quite near to it and very useful it will be too for those who live in these new houses if they work at the hospital - as the houses and the hospital will be in walking distance of each other.
