Barriers that do the job

This set of barriers seems to do the job

At a cross-roads in Charing, On this side of the A20 (which passes through the village), and at the mouth of the road to Pluckley.  There are similar crash-barriers on each corner, which are actually placed to protect pedestrians ~ must have been a different engineer from their normal; fellow.    Why at one place and not at so many others?

Getting it right

Getting it right.

A different vantage point clearly illustrates that Highways can get it right, even if they didn't mean to at the time.  This section of barrier on the A2070, offers protection to pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists.   Whilst most of the rest of the barriers don't protect the most vulnerable in our society.
