I think there is an example of bollards in Cambridge Town as well

I'm not sure what you mean, but I will post my calculation.
It is closed from 10am to 4pm
This is from 10/24 to (12+4)/24 of a day.
= (12+4)/24 - 10/24
= 16/24-10/24
= 6/24
= 1/4
It is either closed or open.
Therefore time is is open =
1-(1/4)
= (4/4)-(1/4)
= (3/4)
(3/4) = (75/100)
= 75%
Therefore the road is open 75% of the time.
This does not take into account days where the road is closed for other purposes or for different hours to usual.
If you have better figures post them here.
I don't see how it's relevant whether the road's open to traffic 0% of the time, 75% of the time, or only on Thursdays and alternate Saturdays. When it's closed, it's closed - and it's pretty obvious that you can't go down there!
Anything can be "proven" by statistics.
There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.
I can see them being very useful for level crossings, instead of barriers. Then there is no way of beating the train
So true, as I learnt the other day in school.Anything can be "proven" by statistics.

True I suppose it could be open and closed at the same time, or semi open, in which case the 75% figure is flawed.MATE, you just cant put this sortve thing into statistics :???:

I'm sure Kestrel wouldn't like that comment!Electric trains cannot go down the GWML futher than airport junction any of the time. It is clear from signals which way the train has been routed. It is obvious that electric trains cannot continue any futher than the knitting allows. Yet HeX drivers have been known to take a wrong route. This does not meen that they are stupid.
Complete bollox, it'd seriously injure and/or kill the driver :roll:Should they replace the mercury tube oversize train bars before the tube tunnel entrances with a solid metal bar that will stop the train for sure and add clear signs warning that large trains cannot proceed?
Is there really much more that can be said in such an old thread about traffic barriers?No offence meant to anyone here, but could we get back on topic?

Thankyou very much. Now let's remove the bullards before they injure or kill car drivers.
how about no?
im gona put bollards all around your house!
Theres been a few developments surrounding these now infamous bollards:
