Text of Petition
A petition to ban the use
of A board advertising in Wales. A boards not only clutter our pavements but
pose a huge risk to disabled people as getting past them in a wheelchair or if
you're visually impaired often means you're forced onto the road to by-pass
them.
This is especially an
issue on shared spaces such as city centres as well as coastal towns where the
pavements are narrower.
