The main Radyr/Morganstown Road is ridiculous. Fair enough outside Radyr Comp but that should be it.
Ive only done it twice and already lost the will to live and my daughter is booked in for another 4 Sundays. Takes me longer to get from the Ty Nant pub to the ski slope than it does to get from Merthyr to Taffs Wells!Originally Posted by Culver Blue
Yep welcome to my world, I’m regularly around all the areas you mention…..think I prefer the solid traffic chaos in rush hours compared to hardly any cars and crawling along for no apparent reason. In saying all this, I thought today every car seemed to be going a little bit quicker, wildly almost hitting 30 mph. Like everyone has collectively just thought f*ck it, and has gone back to slow and sensible 30mph.
Definitely doesn’t feel as slow as when the dictator first gave the order……
It is my view that if drivers had kept to the 30mph speed limit there would not have been the need to reduce it to 20. Even when it was 30 most drivers pushed it, myself included.
I swear I always come off Llantrisant Road right behind the same Dacia Sandero every time I do the journey up to the A470. When those green smiley lights come on flashing '20' and I know I'm still doing 17mph !!! It's a long, boring crawl..
Personally, I think 20mph roads are a good idea in the right areas. It's the ridiculous inconsistencies I don't get.
I have a house on the B4557 in a village near Aberystwyth. The B4577 is intersected by the B4337 in the middle of the village. At the intersection there's a pub, a bus stop, a post office and a kindergarten. Guess the speed limit.
Too many examples that I could give, but you'd loose the will to live. So just a few.
Two villages locally where the signs are the wrong way around. 30 or 40 when entering the village and 20 when leaving.
An unlit road, that has two cycle lanes, which was 30 has had the signs graffitied by the authorities and is now 60!
The road from Gower into town is 20 MPH for just over a mile from Upper Killay, where I never see pedestrians on the pavement. let alone crossing the road, becomes 30 when it gets to the shops in Killay. Even though shoppers have to dodge the traffic and there is concealed exit from a car park. ETC, ETC, ETC.
To use an old football fan cliche toward the WAG "you don't know what you're doin'!". What must the world think of Wales, when we elected a Marxist tramp to represent us on the world stage. ��
