Bastable Avenue

The controversy about the banned turn onto Bastable Avenue (see http://stibasa.blogspot.co.uk/2010/03/special-pleading-at-thames-view.html) has been raised again (see https://www.streetlife.com/conversation/3fyzbtj7n9be6/).

I went and took photos on 4/9/12 to see for myself what all the fuss was about, but since then some of the signs shown here have been removed

The writer on streetlife says that " there is only one sign on the wrong side of the road [sc: and it is on the wrong side of the road] which [sc: and it] is obscured at one point by a traffic light and also by high sided vehicles. You would not look on the left hand side of the road to turn right".

As the photo below shows there were 3 sets signs on the near side (where signs always are). The middle set had the CCTV warning sign. The second photo shows the furthest away of those three from a bit closer.
