Street safety and motorway works sit side by side in two days of regional coverage

Read together, reports on Kidical Mass, a dark footpath and M5 closures show transport concerns at local and regional levels.

Bristol 24/7 reported that the Kidical Mass ride returned with a call for safer cycling in the city [1]. Bristol 24/7 also reported calls to improve lighting on a path said to be 'perilously dark' [3]. The Business Desk South West reported that work to lay a power cable for the Agratas battery plant will lead to closures on the M5, scheduled to avoid school holidays and carnival season [2]. Together, the items put local street safety and regional road infrastructure side by side.
