Red Szell says he has has suffered more injuries from A-boards than when climbing rock faces.

Local Democracy Reporting Service

The Hampstead resident says they can be a hazard for visually impaired people and others with disabilities. Mr Szell uses a white stick and says it is hard to navigate around the boards, and he often hurts his hand on them and has tumbled over one."I never wear shorts walking around Hampstead for the same reason."Some of the A-boards have metal clasps or chains to hold them open, which can cause injuries, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service.

He urged the borough to make it easier to get around for "thousands of visually impaired people using its pavements".
