点评:Roath Park Lake was always considered a gem of a place to visit .
It has been left to rot by the council who are more interested in
international affairs , speed limits and cycle lanes.
1] The lake itself is untended , parts covered in algae and overhanging trees
about to fall in .
2] The bridge at the north side is covered in pigeon poo and is never cleaned
or maintained .
3] When I last visited there were 2 boats on the lake [ thats 2 more than I have
ever seen on Llanishen Reservoir] with 3 people employed for this task .
How on earth can there be a charge of £20 an hour for a pedal boat .
Some of you might recall the Roath Pride which took passengers around the
lake . This is now stored away in a cage by the shore to disintegrate . Perhaps
it could be sold to the navy for action in the Straits of Hormuz .
4] I can fully understand the significance of memorial benches for the loss or memory
of a loved one but there must be some sort of plan that the benches and plates
are regularly maintained; many at present are the worse for wear .
At the same time could the lighthouse be painted using a product that does not
fade within a year or two .
Finally I am surprised that the council have not allowed a tatooist , vape shop,
charity shop and Turkish Barber to have premises in a prominent position.
Perhaps a machete shop as we will soon need machetes to to hack trees and
vegetation to walk round the park.
翻译:罗斯公园的湖泊一直被视为一个值得游览的绝佳去处。
然而,市议会却任由它荒废失修——他们似乎更关心国际事务、限速规定以及自行车道建设。
1] 湖面无人打理,部分区域长满了藻类,周围的树木也摇摇欲坠,随时可能倒下。
2] 北侧的桥梁上满是鸽粪,却从未得到过清理或维护。3] 我上次去的时候,湖面上有两艘船[这比我以往在拉尼申水库上见到的船数量还要多2艘],还有3个人专门负责这项工作。
到底为什么脚踏船的收费会高达每小时20英镑呢?
你们当中有些人可能还记得那艘载着乘客环绕湖面游览的“Roath Pride”号游船。如今它被锁在岸边的围栏里,任其逐渐腐朽。或许可以把它卖给海军,让它在霍尔木兹海峡上派上用场呢。4] 我完全理解纪念长椅对于缅怀逝去的亲人或表达哀思所具有的意义,但必须有一套方案来确保这些长椅及铭牌能得到定期维护;目前许多长椅都已破旧不堪。
同时,能否使用一种一两年内不会褪色的涂料来粉刷灯塔呢?
最后,令我惊讶的是,议会居然不允许纹身店、电子烟店、慈善商店以及土耳其理发店在显眼位置开设门店。或许应该开一家大刀店,因为我们很快就需要用大刀来砍断树木和植被,才能在公园里行走。
