This is very interesting problem and not just in the UK: Vulnerable people think that social welfare is becoming increasingly difficult to access, that the application process is becoming increasingly cumbersome and time-consuming, and that many people, especially immigrants, found very...

It’s now been a long time since the tram was extended to Wolverhampton station, but the new section of tramway line is still not drawn on Google Maps, although the tram stops have been added. Considering this isn't some remote area this seems like an oversight...

In fact, in most modern countries, developed industries and commodity economies are sufficient to provide these unemployed people with a basic standard of living - this should not become a heavy burden at all. The real question is how much of these benefits are actually delivered to people...

Essentially, it seems that is the most possible solution without any major reconstruction of the viaduct structure, not the best one. Any work to expand the station would involve rebuilding the viaduct structure and there are would be have many environmental legal issues problems if rebuilt the...

The problem is that these measures themselves require long-term investment and a lot of resources, such as a large number of housing renovations. There are good example in the infrastructure thread is the Manchester Oxford Road Station Remodelling Scheme, the station will be even smaller after...

In fact, this is more like a problem brought about by the "early stages" of technologies not just digital. For example, in the film era, the colours of early colour photos and colour negatives were not reliable, and many would fade within a decade or even a few years. This directly led to the...

Hmm, it seems not much infrastructure damaged, so why did they need to shut it down for so long?

Also note that a large number of new residential buildings are being built in suburban areas where public transportation is very weak and many old buildings in town centres are left vacant.

This may work in good neighborhoods, but in poor & bad areas, people will have a hard time telling the difference between them and the countless other people in the area who have with a crime record. People would sigh and say, "This place is full of rapists, liars and thieves. You'll get used to...

I think the problem is that the advertising operators who own/owned these advertising spaces have been constantly changing hands and merging over the years, and the successors do not always know the full status of their own company's assets. Some positions, such as the poster's example, have...

There were early reports said 1 died but this was later proven to be untrue.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/32745770/trams-collison-crash-france/ The number of injured suggests the tram must have been very full at the time. Initial reports said one person had died, but this was later proven to be untrue.

This shot is from the ending of the animation Case Closed: The Phantom of Baker Street released in 2002. There was a very short snippet show a slam door train arriving station - was a London Terminal? What means the "4" at the front? Can the identity of this train? I think when that lens was...

Just in Bolton, there are many forest where l can found fragments of cable insulation on the ground (and some forests are just a kind of garbage dump). I taken this photo in 2022

These are temporary measures and it is obvious that completely demolishing the bridge would be expensive.

Rats can spread diseases, for example orthohantavirus. Rats also chew on plastic pipes and electrical wires, posing serious safety hazards, even biting human especially children. In addition, those most troubled by rat infestations are often those at the bottom of society who cannot afford to...

I believe that many people, including me, will subconsciously block the door with their hands when the door is closed. It's a conditioned reflex.

If the town council was in charge of the bridge then without adequate funding they couldn't do much things, in fact you can see from the Google Street View that they have tried to patch up some of the holes over the past decade or so but no further work has ever been started due to lake of funding.

If the subway trains continued to run, the vibrations caused would most likely be seen as aggravating the damage to the structure, and it is understandable that the subway company would not want to take the risk.

If they real need, to keep the operation of the metro, a large number of workers should be dispatched and steel frames will be quickly built to temporarily support the bridge deck for temporarily relieve the most dangerous situation.
