  12. Im definitely going to try and make this years, haven't been for ages.
     
  13. News regarding this year's BIAMF:
    "Owing to the road works / road closures etc in Bristol, if anyone who is not coming in via the ride-in from the M5 Gordano services wants a guide of how to get in please tell Paul Hanmore (BIAMF organiser) where they are coming from (their approach to Bristol) and their Email address and he will try to get a guide to them in the week immediately prior to the Festival. Paul's email address is [email protected]."
     
  14. I was in Bristol last night for a concert, they have opened up the new road scheme now, nobody really knows where they are going it was a bit frantic, I wasn't sure which way to look just to cross the fecking road as I was a bit unsure which direction the cars were coming from.
     
  15. I might nip down to see later on..

  16. I walked across the centre Tuesday lunchtime -general confusion and carnage with buses whistling through at ramming speed. Needed wits about you crossing the roads.

    Give it six months, they'll change it again....
     
  17. The bit that seem to puzzle a lot of them was when you get to the end of Baldwin st you now go straight across instead of going round to the right, but once you cross over to the other side you cant turn right !!! people are just stopping as they don't know where they are going.
     
  18. Indeed. I'm sure some consultants somewhere have earnt a fortune playing with model road layouts , in between snacks and lego/other nursery toys.

    Pedestrianise the whole area and be done with it.

    Make it an attractive area to indulge in a little passeggiata...

    Might involve detonating a few kebabs shops , but that's a small price to pay
     
  19. It was fine how it was originally.... Grass in the middle and a one way system round it.

  20. I thought all the re modelling was to accommodate this new metro bus thingy ?
