No painting please
Bus stop not long enough
Signs to cross road are ambiguous particularly on 
GNR.  Some say give way to cars, some have no 
signs, needs consistency
Is ful colour easy to maintain?
Planters will add too much clutter
Put bus station back in at GNR
Safety - squares/checkerboard is risky for kids 
Add raised medians to stop cars parking and 
Buildings are run down looking
(stepping stones [comment related to option 4]
deliveries happening in median- it is unsafe
Cultural and ethnic sensitivity [comment related to  Train arrival, large pedestrian flow over zebra
