Rainbow Crossing: Makes People Ill

TOTNES’ plans for Europe’s first permanent rainbow road crossing could be shelved after fears were raised that it could cause dementia sufferers to have hallucinations.

The group Proud2Be has been working on establishing a permanent rainbow crossing in Totnes following the success of the temporary one it set up in the High Street for the town’s gay pride event last year.

Now the group, and town councillors who had been asked to support the plan for the crossing across The Plains, have been warned by someone who works with elderly people that the brightly-coloured crossing could have a serious health impact on people with Alzheimer’s.

Councillors have advised Proud2Be to seek further medical advice from experts...
