The problem is that there is no pedestrian crossing at a bus stop located on a wide, high-speed, and high-traffic road. Most people, including elderly individuals, need to cross the road to reach housing on the opposite side, but the road's width, speed of traffic, and nearby junctions make it difficult and dangerous to cross. Additionally, the road is near a bend with overgrown hedges, which further reduces visibility, making it even more challenging and risky for pedestrians to cross safely.
