Battered bollard


Richmond Council's attempt to control bad motorists from abusing the approach to the small parking area on the north side of Ham Common, at the entrance to Great South Avenue, have had another setback when some spectacularly bad driving damaged one of the posts, the same one that was knocked over in March.

Perhaps cars should be banned from this area totally to protect the many walkers and dogs who use this route.
