as a pedestrian I feel safer with the current system. The scenario you depict is far more unlikely than the alternatives.
I don't have any thoughts about the colours of the security shutters quite frankly.
The town ahs to attract people wo live in it, enjoy living in it asnd spend money in it.
The tacky mismatch of frontages, the stalinist precinct with its apology for a memorial, the lego parade of shops at the top of the lane make the place very unattractive to prospective inhabitants.
There are some interesting businesses. I like the little hardware shop with its merchandise displayed outside like the old photographs that we are familiar with. Not many towns have a model railway shop. The fruit/veg shop especially when it has bedding plants displayed outside is excellent, and Dransfield's carrys on a tradition albeit not owned by Dransfields. My favourite is Carolyn's deli: superb takeaway food and great service. I think the indian restraurant near the top of the lane shoiws how good a modern frontage can look, but the lane is a depressing place that makes the town unattractive.
I visit Tickhill regularly. It's smaller than Featherstone, but shows what can be done
