A government agency suggested the reason there is not a safe place for a blind person or wheelchair user to cross the main road in Campbeltown is that there has not been an accident.
An off cial from Transport Scotland, which made that statement, should try crossing a busy road wearing a blindfold or in a wheelchair. In Campbeltown they would search in vain for a traffic light controlled or zebra crossing.
There is one on Main Street but to get there from Dalintober or Millknowe would involve crossing the main road.
