Rant 37 - 6/2/12 Subject: Closing my road

Rant number 37


I live on a little rat run road - just off one of the main roundabouts heading out of huddersfield.

As such - it seems that they find ways to close it from time to time, and its a pain in the ass.

I wouldn't mind if the reasons were transparent, easy to find out - and useful.

It seems that this time however, they are doing it just to piss me off.


I admit that pissing me off is probably too easy (see this blog for proof of this,) but none the less - them trying to piss me off well, pisses me off!

Like any rat run, there are only two exits to my road which go anywhere. A junction at one end - heading towards Ainley top roundabout, and at the other end, the aforementioned rather large roundabout.

Now, this time round - they have blocked off (and I mean completely blocked off - they are not fucking about I tell you) the end with the junction on, as well as the opposite road. I just don't know why this is. I am guessing that something is being done to the traffic lights. But no-one has thought to tell the residents why this is or what is going on.

This forces me to use one of the busiest roundabouts in the whole bloody town - and means that I am having to go in the opposite direction to where I am heading every bloody day. Also - because the road I am emerging from is essentially closed - getting a chance to pull out has become nie on impossible.

Once again, this may be perfectly neccasery maintence or whatever. I have not seen however a single worker so far, a roadworks sign or any indication of why they have felt the need to make my morning commute that little bit more miserable than it already is.

I mean, why do they have to shut off my road anyway? Do something about the potholes that are deep enough to hide a midget in or something.

I hope this doesn't last for bloody long anyway, or I'm going to have to phone the idiots at the council to actually find out whats going on. Wankers!

Rant over.
