This fashion is more Kensington and Chelsea than all of London but I'm all
in favour of getting rid of railings. They are usually a real danger to

with a load of bollards.
Presumably the evil motorists now knock down the bollards. Are the
bollards any better for cyclists than railings?
In Cambridge the bollards used to sneak up (literally) on the motorists
and take them by surprise.
