Does anyone know why Wandsworth Council are putting these down all along the Thames Path? Spending my council tax money pulling up perfectly good pavement and making tripping hazards. Is it to jolt cyclist? Wake up sleeping babes in prams? Or have they just too much money?🙄

1. I would hazard a speed trap for cyclists.

2. I would guess to try and stop cyclists going too fast.

   As a pedestrian, cyclists going way too fast in shared spaces like that is definitely an issue.

3. Googling Wandsworth Council and Thames Path gives this as the first result: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg303j4142mo

   In sum, they’re to slow down cyclists. I wonder how long they’ll last and how much they’ll end up paying out in compensation to visually impaired pedestrians due to the raised bits not being highlighted…
