Meanwhile, The Man has erected some new flats between Larrington Towers and Mr Sainsbury's House Of Toothy Comestibles, which stand upon the long side of a T-junction. The junction used to have a mini-roundabout, but it's been replaced with traffic lights. About a hundred and fifty yards upstream is a light-controlled pedestrian crossing. About a hundred and fifty yards downstream is another light-controlled pedestrian crossing. Both the crossings are outside schools. You do not want to be visiting Mr Sainsbury's House Of Toothy Comestibles around school chucking-out time.
These people don't know they're born.
Additional: "They also say the flashing orange beacons will be disruptive at night". Have these gobbins never heard of curtains?
