I assume there is Perspex in the openings so you can't get through.

Given what H&S is like at Towers I think this is a good improvement. A lower fence would of course be far better than ridiculous high fences left right and centre. Although these fences aren't going anywhere, so clearly the TLC team have though of a way of working around it so guests can view the rides. Well done to the TLC team I say.

To be honest, the fence was actually necessary, I have actually had people try to spit on me, and I have heard complaints over spitting on there before, and H&S again in terms of people falling off. Seriously though, it's more to do with spitting and stuff like that, as how the hell do you fall off a averaged height bridge? Trip and Bounce? They don't bother doing anything to the rapids which has problems with people, I believe it was climbing out the boat, or something to do with a bridge. I saw a youtube video and it was something serious, but I'm not sure what exactly it was but it was omething that could have ended quite badly.

i think fairplay to the TLC team here. The lights on galactica at night, the rollercoaster restaurant and the theming improvements on rita they seem to be trying to work with what they have been given, which isn't a lot.
The fact that someone has sat down and said " It is a bit ridiculous that people cannot see the rides any more, i think we should try and do something about it even if its a window"
This comes from the park that were happy to leave what looked like a building site attached to rita in the darkbuiding forest for how many years. Yes it would be great if it wasn't there but you have to remember merlin as a company have been sent to the courts regarding h&s a few times now

So, is the future of humanity us all walking around with fence boxes over our heads to stop everyone spitting on each other?

Nope,
what I meant is alton have had issues where H&S have got involved, and the rapids bridge was indeed one as far as I'm aware of. Mind you, I remembered what happened on Rumba, and it wasn't the parks fault unless I found something different, someone jumped out one boat, swam around and climbed back in, because chavs.
