This weekend I took time to talk in more detail with residents on the Priory. I enjoyed listening to peoples views on the traffic issues and was pleased also to discuss the new play facilities with a number of the people who signed our earlier petition.
Today I met with an officer of the council to provide feedbck on a number of traffic, parking and safety issues including issues on the Priory, Northborough and Bath Road.
I would like to thank everyone how has provided feedback on the specific issues and I will be providing further updates directly by email
This weekend I concentrated my walkabouts on the Northborough. I heard a lot of comments regarding anti social behaviour and also mixed views on the Britwell Regeneration Poject. I hope that people will have taken the time to look at the full plans including the changes to the park.
Thanks to everyone for sharing their comment concrns and possible solutions to the school run issue in Derwent Drive. I will be discussing this in more detail with the Council this week and will feedback shortly afterwards. In the meantime if you have a view on this issue please let me know.
During my walkabouts yesterday I heard a number of distressing reports about Crime and Anti Social Behaviour. I know that the Neighbourhood Action Group are already looking at this issue but I got a strong sense that more needs to be done. I will be discussing this directly with the Police to see if a more effective strategy can be found to deal with these issues.
Regulars who have been following my posts will be aware tha I reported this box and I am pleased to say that it has now been properly repaired. If you have boxes broken in your road then feel free to report them either to me or to the service provider
I am not sure why this happens but it seems that this little corner of Newchurch is never properly cleared of rubbish nor is the grass cut. I will be raising the issue with the council again.
Firstly can I thank everyone who has responded to me regarding this issue. Some o you will be aware that the COuncil are taking this seriously and have already altered the phasing of the lights to make things safer I will however continue to campaign for a clearer right turn filter and will keep you informed on my progress
Friday the 23rd and I was our canvassing. It was great to see so many St George Flags flying!
This week I spent more time looking at the problem at the Junction of the Bath Road and Walpole Road. I have now rasied two escalations on behalf of residents and I will be speaking directly to Council Officers on this matter.
It was great to have the opportunity to meet with Alan Johnson onthe 21st. Alan was visiting a community development project which was staffed by people through using Future Jobs Funding.
Ahhhh the beauty of our new artistic white lines all down the road… I have reported this to the Council and they have promised to look into the situation and see what can be done.
Firstly can I say thanks to all the residents who took the time to respond to my note. It is very clear that their are a number of traffic and safety issues, including the issue of Station parking. I am still collating results so please let me know if you are experiencing issues at all.
I have now received a wide variety of comments from residents in Derwent Drive. I have also raised this issue at the NAG meeting. I am currently putting together a summary of the possible solutions which I will then copy back to the residents who have responded. In addition I will be passing the information to the Council and we can then arrange for a more formal consultation
I am now following up on a number of issues reported to me by residents of Walpole Road and Lowestoft drive regarding the traffic safety issue turning in from the Bath Road. If you have a view on this please email and let me know.
I have taken the time to review this with one of the residents and it is clearly a safety concern which I have raised wit the council and will follow up with them shortly to see what action they are planning to take.
