Controversial cycle lane roadworks blamed for “killing Christmas trade” Work on the seafront bike lane in Clevedon, which was opposed earlier this year by former cabinet minister Liam Fox, began in October cycling
And now, the roadworks required to finish the project have been blamed for driving away customers from local shops and restaurants in the run-up to Christmas.
“Our trade has dropped a lot and that’s because it is difficult to get here. If it’s not easy for people to get here and park, people will simply go elsewhere.” “During the original work to Hill Road we lost 40 percent of our takings. The seafront roadworks have affected our trade, particularly last month.”
“The improvements to Hill Road have provided more space to shoppers through a widened footway on the north side which traders are now utilising for outdoor seating. In addition, we have provided new pedestrian crossing points where there were previously none and provided new car parking spaces on Elton Road.

The relationship between work disability and subsequent suicide or self-harm: A scoping reviewWork disability occurs when an injury or illness limits the ability of a worker to participate in employment. While evidence suggests that people with work disability are at increased risk of suicide and intentional self-harm, this relationship has not been the subject of systematic review. This scoping review aims to assess and summarise the research literature regarding the relationship between work disability and subsequent suicide or intentional self-harm. Review protocol was published on the Open Science Foundation and is reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Peer-reviewed studies published in English from 1st January 2000 were included if they reported suicide or self-harm outcomes in people aged 15 years or older with work disability. Studies were identified via systematic search of Medline, Scopus and Pubmed databases, via recommendation from topic experts, and citation searching of included articles. A narrative synthesis was undertaken. Literature search yielded 859 records of which 47 eligible studies were included, nine set in workers’ compensation, 20 in sickness absence, 13 in disability pension systems, and five from mixed cohorts. Of 44 quantitative studies, 41 reported a positive relationship between work disability and suicidal behaviour. The relationship is observed consistently across nations, work disability income support systems and health conditions. Several factors elevate risk of suicidal behaviour, including presence of mental health conditions and longer work disability duration. There were few studies in some nations and no suicide prevention interventions. The risk of suicide and self-harm is elevated in people experiencing work disability. Further observational research is required to fill evidence gaps.
