Qatar Facebook Cause - Please join
By baldrick2dogs •
So, I was out for a walk around Um Ghuwailina, and on many occasions found myself walking in the road as there was either no pavement, a rubble pavement, or a car parked on an otherwise good pavement. Doha sucks for pedestrians!

Let's see how big we can make this and try to make a difference!
.
I expereinced that when I first arrived here 4 years ago. Doha is one the unfriendliest places in the world for Pedestrains.
Keeping this in mind I have designed which I believe is going to be the best pedestrain footpaths in Qatar in Mesaieed in one of my projects. Not only have I allowed wide pedestrian footpaths I have alos aloowed Cycle lanes and adequated Signalised Pedestrain Crossings.
Will sign up when I get home as do not have FB here in the office.
Baldrick see my PM..:)
I joined the cause and spread the word to friends.. :)
Well it's worth a shot
BTW, don't forget to tell all your friends :o)
There are many 'petitions' raised on facebook causes that have been presented to the concerned authorities and actually resulted in action. OK, not in Qatar, but it's got to be worth a try eh?
BTW, saw a Filipina with a pushchair trying to negotiate what should be a pavement outside IBQ on Airport road. Disaster! Nearly jackknifed the trolley!
t com..exactly my question!
Baldrick?
How will this make a difference?
done
wish there was another way to join since I do stay in Mughalina myself and know how much this affects us! Specially since my daughter and I walk for exercise I know how trialling a situation it is and would love to help such a cause but without resorting to a FB account. Let me know..
Done :-)
done.. :)
i will sign up when i reach home, it's blocked here in the office. :)
