Faradays on Queen Street

It's now 20 August.
We need our Smith & Caughey's replacement.

Would be insane if they threw in a fancy book store inside to bring the Borders Bookstore vibes but unlikely.

Cyclists and E-scooters constantly running red lights and nearly hitting pedestrians on Broadway. What should I do?

This is becoming increasingly common. They're supposed to stop when it's a red light and if it's pedestrians turn to cross, but in rush hour mornings, I've seen many close calls of them almost hitting people crossing. This includes students crossing in the morning as well. I know our Police is too busy with limited resources but what steps should I take? Should I write to our local MPs?

I highly doubt the Police will set up a checkpoint to educate or issue citations for scooters and cyclists, so I'm not sure how writing to an MP would be any better. Would an Epsom MP have the influence to get things done?
