Petition Action

Make Bristol Street underpass in Swindon open for 24/7 for people's safety.

Petition Details

I'd like to extend the Bristol Street underpass opening times to 24hr/7.
Bristol Street underpass opening times:
Monday to Friday: 7am – 9pm
Saturday: 7am – 8pm
Sunday: 10am – 6pm

Additional Information

Currently here are the Bristol Street underpass opening times:
Monday to Friday: 7am – 9pm
Saturday: 7am – 8pm
Sunday: 10am – 6pm

This works well for Monday-Friday 9-5 workers but what about people who work shifts? They have to then do a long walk around which is not a safe walking route despite there being an underpass which could be opened 24hr/7 if Swindon council invested more.
