I went to our tip second day after opening. They had said on website they were going to be directing traffic, please be patient etc etc.
off I went, orange cones stopped my entry from the direction I was coming, had to go past and turn around came back went in. There were the grand total of three cars. Less than an on a normal busy day without orange cones. And usually we go out by the entrance, but they have rigged up an alternate exit so it’s much better. I am hoping they realise and keep it that way!
Except for the lack of tourist buses and camper vans (which is going to have a HUGE effect on the town as we have so many eating places for them) town felt almost like normal. The only obvious signs are the bottles of sanitiser in all the doorways, and QR codes starting to be put up on doors for our contact tracing app. It’s a small town, only about 8000 population, so it’s not jam packed in the streets at any time (except perhaps the Christmas parade).
It wouldn’t surprise me if the hand sanitiser became a permanent fixture, you can see people really like the idea, and if as they say is likely the virus becomes part of the back ground disease burden improved hygiene is going to be our only defence isn’t it.
