A question has been raised through the CSS Traffic and Environment Committee about the safety of Hi Star vehicle counting equipment: "I understand that the safety implications of this equipment were discussed at CSS Transport and Environment Committee earlier this year and that you were seeking comments. Concerns have been raised in Derbyshire by pedal cyclists and motor cyclists that they represent a danger but I have no knowledge of any resulting accidents. I would be grateful of any feedback which you may have received from other Authorities."
