Confusing Zebra Crossing
University staff and students alike are confused by a zebra crossing at a dead end.
Bridge to nowhere
On Thursday we brought you the story about a Zebra crossing in Bristol that was at a dead end. The crossing is at the bottom of a cul-de-sac and bordered by a large hedge. Motorists couldn’t travel over it if they wanted to.
