Scaffolding firm sent one star reviews after parking in cycle lane
Millennium Scaffolding has been sent several one star reviews after one of their vehicles was pictured blocking a cycle lane in Peckham. FORS, the leading accreditation scheme for fleet operators, were notified on Twitter and confirmed the details of the incident had been passed on for investigation..
After a Twitter user linked their Google page, several negative reviews started to appear. One from Tomas Hardy said: "Parking in a segregated bike lane is ILLEGAL. The reckless actions of your staff forces vulnerable road users onto the path of traffic. This is the height of ignorance and arrogance.." Another from Noel Claremont said: "Your driver ILLEGALLY parked in a segregated bike lane and forced vulnerable road users, including families with children to ride on a dangerous roadway. Your driver is the definition of callous entitlement." https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Eu5fWptX...pg&name=medium https://road.cc/content/news/cycling...log-item-22933 |

A scaffolding delivery is a major undertaking. Should the vehicle have been stationed out beyond the so-called cycle lane, causing even worse restriction of traffic and putting the workers at risk of being hit by cyclists as they manhandled the heavy cargo they were delivering from vehicle to building plot? Or perhaps the "cycle lane" should have been officially closed for a day or two? |

The house on the end has scaffolding in that pic supplied by another company so I suspect it was doing something there. The stupidness is there is a very large entrance / exit to a small industrial complex right next to there but oh no, lets block vehicles and kids off. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Eu5fWptX...pg&name=medium https://road.cc/content/news/cycling...log-item-22933 |
