AFTER passing along Malton Road recently, I just wondered which schoolchildren had done all the white drawings of cycles and people on the road and path; there really are a lot of them.

They also seem to have fitted a rollercoaster disguised as a cycle path. Is there really any need for all these pictorial instructions?

What happened to the days when people rode their bikes on the road and pedestrians stuck to the footpaths without constant guidance.
