疑难解析
1． I’ll start by summarizing these changes before we open the meeting to questions．在谈问题之前，我先总结一下这些变化。open the meeting 可以直接理解为“开始会议”，会议整体是探讨问题，因此说open the meeting to questions.
2.It's been especially noticeable with the increase in heavy traffic while they've been building the new hospital. But it's the overall rise in the volume of traffic of all kinds that's concerning us. To date there's not been any increase in traffic accidents， but that＇s not something we want to see happen， obviously.非常令人关注的是随着医院的起建，交通变得越来越拥堵。但我们担忧的是各类交通的总体体量的增加。至今交通事故量并没有增加，但显然事故并不是我们希望看到发生的。
3. People were very concerned about the lack of visibility on some roads due to cars parked along the sides of the roads.人们担心路边停放的车辆阻挡了一些道路的视线。
4. But, of course, it's no good introducing new regulations if we don't have a way of making sure that everyone obeys them, and that's an area we're still working on with the help of representatives from the police force.但是如果没有办法确保大家能够遵守，那么颁布规定必然是没有意义的，这也是我们和警局代表依然在讨论的。work on意指正在努力的方向，with the help of...指“在·····的帮助下”。
5. There'll be a new 'No Parking' sign on School Road, just by the entrance to the school, forbidding parking for 25 metres. This should improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians,especially on the bend just to the north of the school.在 School Road 上会有一个新的“禁止停车”标，正好在学校的入口处，25米范围之内禁止停车。这应该能让司机和行人的视线更好一些，特别是在学校北边的那条弯道上。
6. As far as disabled drivers are concerned, at present they have parking outside the supermarket, but lorries also use those spaces, so we've got two new disabled parking spaces on the side road up towards the bank.对于有残疾的司机而言，他们现在可以将车停在超市外面，但大货车也停在这些区域，所以我们在银行旁边的小路上设置了两个新的残疾人停车位。
