Surfing on North Road
Anyone know if there are any plans to stop the traffic light outside Hertford North turning in to a tidal wave every time we get heavy rain? There's rather a nice opportunity to get soaked further along the road towards town too. Shocking drainage

The bycycle park looks like a paddling pool too. I love the way bus drivers almost seem to aim for the puddle toward town, adds to the fun of getting to work.

It's like a mini Olympics in a deluge. You come out of the station, do a long jump over the enormous puddle...turn into Beane Road and sprint for approx 100 yards till your safe from being drenched by drive-by soakers...all part of the fun and helps with ur fitness !!

If you cut through the car park, and cross by the bridge, you avoid the puddles on Beane Rd and the possibility of getting splashed.

Oh, but it's been (or should I say Beane?) like that for years and years. New fangled everything these days, no respect for the traditions that Old Hertfordians have had for ages, I suppose you'll want to stop the underpasses flooding next....[:)]
