  I think Councillor Knight will find that he is incorrect suggesting that all crossings in Worcester had to be traffic light controlled. The type of crossing depends on a number of factors, including vehicles speeds and the number of people crossing at certain points along the road. Has Councillor Knight forgotten about the zebra crossing on Little London that has been there for years. Or the one on Bilford Road perhaps?
  
  The zebra crossings on St. Peter's Drive would have been chosen because they were seen as the most suitable following detailed investigations, not merely because of cost. It seems that Councillor Knight is trying to suggest that he had a hand in influencing the provision of a zebra crossing instead of a pelican crossing, rather than giving credit to the highway engineers who I expect done all the leg work to determine what would have been seen as suitable.

  Why try to rob Councillor Knight of his bit of glory?
  
  It is obvious that he has campaigned for many years for this improvement and your posting just smells of sour grapes.
  
  Why not try and be a bit gracious at moments like this? It can be character forming!"
