A protest over new barriers erected at a roundabout in Telford passed peacefully at the weekend.
Bugsplatz MCC spent the day at the Old Park roundabout in Telford after they felt that new barriers installed at the roundabout could be harmful to bikers, as they may not be seen by other motorists.
The club believe there were about 100 bikers who joined in with the protests and they are happy that they made their point, but in a peaceful way.
Sarah Harrison from Bugsplatz said: “The protest went really well on Saturday, we made our point peacefully and within the confines of the law so there wasn’t any trouble and we kept the bikes moving as well so the other traffic wasn’t too badly affected either.
"There was a police presence by way of one police car but he was just parked up, watched for a while and then went.”
The Bugsplatz MCC are now waiting to hold a meeting with Telford and Wreking Council to discuss future road markings in the area
