Putting in the rest of the sentence makes no difference to the point

I can take you to locations where islands have been provided as a
safe area for pedestrians; not part of a (formal) pedestrian

is it the entrance to a village. Neither is the purpose to separate
opposing traffic which might otherwise come into conflict.

I will always explain revoked keys, unless the UK government
prevents me by using the RIP Act 2000.
