If the people of Straylands Grove do not need the rising bollards, then perhaps it could be situated at the top of Queen Anne's Road.

This could be a solution to two horrendous problems.

It could be an answer to the diabolical school run St Peter's has imposed upon this area for more than three years, with no respite forthcoming. Because the road is a cul-de-sac, with a bollard in place residents' parking would not be necessary.

Thus we would have relief from oppressive traffic and have moremoney more in our pockets.
