Excellent!

I was recently pushing my bicycle along a narrow pavement, and I had to
negotiate a wooden ramp that someone was erecting by a shop front to allow
a wheelchair to get from pavement up the two steps and into the shop.

I chatted to the guy who was fitting it as I plotted a route around. It
seems the ramp was required for a Council related meeting that was
happening in the shop, as the rules required wheelchair access for all
such meeting. No-one who attended the meeting needed it, nor ever had, but
the ramp had had to be constructed, stored, fitted before each meeting
(blocking the pavement) and then removed afterwards.
