There has been so many accidents on this stretch of road. I have witnessed many and I have only lived in the village for just under 3 years. It's too dangerous for people to enter or exit driveways and people are getting hurt. This has to stop now, we can't allow these accidents to continue. Capel is known for its foggy weather which reduces visibility greatly yet drivers are not slowing down.

There is currently no place for children to cross Durleigh Rd and get across to Haygrove School safely. They are forced to cross between parked cars and run between gaps in traffic.

As a doctor and a leisure and commuting cyclist I know first-hand the physical and mental benefits of cycling whether it be a ride in the country with friends, cycling to work or popping to the shops. I would like more adults and children to feel confident and safe to cycle in their cities and countryside and feel better all-round as a result. Cycling UK View (formal statement of Cycling UK's policy): •The economic benefits of investing in small scale projects that typically benefit cycling are often underestimated. On the other hand, car-dependence is a significant cost for society and large scale transport projects (e.g. roads) are not the value-for-money they are often thought to be. •Cycling makes a positive contribution to the national economy and it is a cost-effective investment. It can help: ◦Reduce congestion; ◦Improve public health and save NHS money; ◦Create jobs; ◦Save employers money and improve productivity; ◦Inject money directly into the economy via the cycle trade; ◦Boost the vitality of town centres; ◦Deliver goods efficiently; ◦Lift house prices. •The Treasury should incentivise cycling through: ◦Adhering to the principle that 'the polluter pays' as the basis of taxation of transport users; ◦Maintaining a tax-free mileage rate that makes cycling on business financially worthwhile; ◦Supporting cycle commuting schemes that save businesses and employees tax (e.g. the ‘salary sacrifice’ Cycle to Work scheme); ◦Reducing VAT on cycle repairs and cycles; ◦Maintaining its policy of not taxing cycles for the use of the roads. •Both national and local authorities should dedicate sufficient resources to smarter choices, recognising that they rely on revenue rather than capital funding. •Economics-focused bodies such as Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), regeneration agencies, developers and retailers should recognise the value of cycling and take action to promote and encourage it. The government's stated ambition is to make "cycling and walking the natural choice for shorter journeys, or as part of a longer journey" A You Gov survey, commissioned by British Cycling shows that almost 60% of parents would be uncomfortable with their children cycling to school on a regular basis. Just 2% of school-age children cycle to school in Britain compared with 50% in the Netherlands. There is a major discrepancy between funding for cycling and walking, when set up against the planned investment for highways and trunk roads - 72p per head (outside of London) for 2020 for cycling and walking compared to £86 per head for roads. Cycling UK’s #funding4cycling initiative called for at least £10 per head per person. http://www.cyclinguk.org/ https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/

A planning application was submitted to Highland Council to construct an 18-hole international golf course on Coul Links, Sutherland but the applicant is not Trump Golf. The target lies within Loch Fleet Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Protection Area for birds & international Ramsar wetland, which is predominantly estuary. Coul Links is one of very few expanses of undeveloped & largely unspoilt sand dunes remaining in Scotland, & its special wildlife & landforms are protected by those UK & European legal designations & international treaty. Development would be at odds with Highland Council’s environmental policies. The government’s conservation agency, which objected, describes SSSIs as “areas of land & water that Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) considers to best represent our natural heritage - its diversity of plants, animals & habitats, rocks & landforms, or a combination of such natural features. They are the essential building blocks of Scotland's protected areas for nature conservation … It is an offence for any person to intentionally or recklessly damage the protected natural features of an SSSI." Trump got official approval to destroy Foveran Links SSSI after exaggerating economic benefits, much shenanigans & Scottish Government intervention. That site will probably be denotified as SSSI (confirmed Dec 2020). The present speculator is Coul Links Ltd. led by Mike Keiser, President of Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, Oregon, Trump Golf’s main global rival, & entrepreneur Todd Warnock who similarly claims 'I can make this environment better'. From Oct 2015, press articles publicised proposals for the golf course. Developers blithely spoke of perceived advantages to golf & economy, ignored conservation designations but mentioned new nature trails & wildlife ‘information’. Development propaganda has not informed the public what wildlife, habitat, landforms & amenity will be destroyed & degraded. Exhibitions in Aug 2016 & Oct 2017, to elicit public votes of support, paid scant attention to wildlife & presented flawed ecology. The former relegated a habitat survey to just a tiny cryptic map at Scottie dog eye level. The less truth people know the less insensitive the plans appear. Golf course construction would be an unnatural catastrophe. It would mean excavating, recontouring, burying wet slacks, reseeding with introduced grasses, addition of plastic membranes, irrigating & intensively mowing 40.5 ha, habitat fragmentation, under-grazing & eradication of (valuable grazers & browsers) rabbits & deer, fertilising & herbiciding (& run-off), with substantial collateral damage, immediate & insidious, & bulk habitat & species translocation of 4.5 ha. dune heath, with insects & rare lichens, & 100 rare dune juniper, with displacements on receptor areas, contrary to government's 'A Habitats Translocation Policy for Britain' (2003) recently relaxed. Size & connectivity of habitats are ecologically critical, affecting species populations, diversity, interaction & survivability. Construction traffic, borrow pits & sand-moving would disturb & damage the geomorphology, hydrology (water quality & seasonality), low-nutrient profiles (on which plants rely) & habitat biodiversity over a much wider area. Fine irregular patterns of topography, micro-habitats & vegetation mosaics, like dry hummocks & wet slacks, would be destroyed, displacing specialised, scarce, rare & vulnerable plants & insects. Human disturbance would reduce bird populations in surviving habitats. Dunes naturally have cycles of erosion & deposition. Plans include greens & fairways constructed near foredune crests & a burn outlet, eliminating important species & weakening natural sea defences regardless of risks. This would probably necessitate adding a culvert & an artificial expanse of boulder rip rap, leading to beach narrowing (part National Nature Reserve) & coastal erosion nearby, the judgement of leading geomorphologist Dr Jim Hansom of Glasgow University. Compromise from 'invasive' species, the result of management neglect & rejected SNH grant aid (£230,000 since 2010), & regenerating North American lodgepole pines (misidentified by golf's ecologists as Scots pines), is being grossly exaggerated to excuse 'remediating' so much natural vegetation with manicured mediocrity. Naturalness is a key criterion in SSSI selection. Bracken, gorse, tall herbs & rank grassland support more wildlife than lawns: https://butterfly-conservation.org/files/habitat-bracken-for-butterflies.pdf. Fonseca's seed-fly, thought endemic to Sutherland dunes, requires 'weeds'. Claims about biodiversity net gain from moving fragile habitats & species, controlling Scots Pine, rare & native at Coul, & cessation of duck shooting are ludicrous. Threatened habitats outside the SSSI, in a golf 'remediation' area, are of comparable biodiversity, including Fonseca's Seed-fly, Baltic Rush, Rough Horsetail, Moonwort, Skullcap, Butterwort, Fragrant, Frog & Creeping Lady's-tresses Orchids, Small Blue butterfly & plants at their northern UK limits, like Restharrow & abundant Rock-rose, the food-plant of scarce Northern Brown Argus butterfly. The developers talk of 'sensitivity', 'minimalism', ‘naturalness’, 'utmost care' & the high repute of its designers, but Oregon track record conflicts: https://oregoncoastalliance.org/bandon-dunesbiota-bulldoze-roads Leading dune ecologist Dr Tom Dargie describes the developer’s surveys & Environmental Statement as ‘unfit for purpose’. He judges the site worthy of (European) Special Area of Conservation (SAC) status, which would have prevented such development being considered. There is a superfluity of coastal golf courses in Scotland, many undersubscribed, some closing, mostly eroding. The environmentally responsible option is to avoid development within such special, rare & fragile habitats.

There will soon be a fatal accident. It is a residential road that is used for speeding by a variety of motorists. The noise level is awful at night and causes disruption.

The tower currently looks like a giant cigarette in the sky, let's be honest. Unmissable from most of Brighton and Hove, it might as well be a power station chimney. But why not take this opportunity to put some colour in the sky! Let's create a true Brighton icon and paint the tower in a rainbow! Truly in keeping with the bohemian culture and community, representing Brighton's unique and true colours, proud of standing out from the crowd. Be brave British Airways, i360 team and Brighton community, let's make a change! #paintwithpride https://s.bsd.net/38degrees/main/page/-/CBY/brighton.jpg

There are strong rumours that Forest of Dean bus routes could be seriously reduced or some routes axed in the autumn 2016. A public consultation took place in the summer but the results have not been made public. For many people, these buses are a lifeline: whether it's helping them get to work , or helping more vulnerable members of the community get out to community groups. The resulting cuts will affect the poorest and most vulnerable members of the community, isolating them even further with dire economic, educational, employment, and health implications. Please add your voice to ours.

It would be a functioning pub for bringing people together and also the car park provides a central public amenity in the village which has no other a suitable parking for visitors, village hall, walkers etc. Therefore we are asking for your support in 1) saving the pub and 2) save the car park as an amenity

Leap Gate runs through two densely-populated family estates, Castle Mead and Paxcroft Mead, which are served by two primary schools. Since the new stretch of Leap Gate opened in June, HGVs, cars and motor bikes constantly exceed speed limits, putting the lives of residents and their children in danger. Motorists also regularly run the red lights at the Castle Mead pedestrian crossing, endangering the lives of those using it, most vulnerable of whom are children going to and from school during term time. Residents who walk their dogs along Leap Gate are also at risk as they are forced to cross the road in the 50mph zone to gain access to the open space as there is no footpath on the other side of the road. Residents' sleep is being disturbed by noise from the constant flow of traffic through the heart of the estate. Wiltshire Council has failed to adhere to their own Land at East Trowbridge Development Brief which says that potential traffic noise from the link road, Leap Gate, should be mitigated and is to have as little impact as possible on the residents of Castle Mead. Wiltshire Council has repeatedly been asked to extend the 30mph zone on Leap Gate in line with existing housing and to lower the speed limit on the remaining stretch to 40mph to discourage motorists speeding through the whole estate, but they refuse to listen to residents' concerns. Please consider signing our petition!

Why is this important? It's important as the railing have protected the bandstand up to now- they were also in place when David Bowie co-organised and performed at a festival there. It is through the bandstand's link to David Bowie that money is being raised to restore it. The railings have been the protective arms around The Bowie/Lazarus Bandstand even to this day and long may this continue. I've organised two festivals there (13th of August 2016 as well as august 12th 2017) to raise funds to restore the bandstand as well as place a plaque there for David Bowie and everyone involved in the 1969 festival. They played an important role and with your help the bandstand's long history will continue. Help us keep the railings in place. Please sign and share this petition. If anyone can help do this it's the David Bowie fans! These railing were surrounding the bandstand when Bowie co-organised the 1969 festival and should remain there helping to protect it as it has been for many, many years, bandstands are disappearing around the country as are the railings around them, so let's keep this one as unique as the person it's now named after, there was only one David Bowie and there's only one Bowie Bandstand! Please note this is not an attack on the council on any other parties involved. It's about keeping history in a time when so much of it is becoming lost or damaged.

Steward Community Woodland is a hugely important project in terms of the global environmental challenges everyone is currently facing. We have created a far more sustainable way of living on this planet and are sharing the knowledge we have gained with the many hundreds of visitors we receive every year. From our beginnings in 2000, we've been living and working on the land we own for the past 16 years. We recently applied for permanent planning permission which was denied and followed by an appeal. This appeal has been turned down and now we are faced with the prospect of eviction. We NEED YOUR HELP to petition the Dartmoor National Park so we can continue living on the land with our children, all of whom have spent most there lives here. Please share this petition as much as you can.

The ensuing building work will cause congestion and noise pollution in a place already buzzing with life. The building is currently used by a specialist deaf caring group as one of 3 help centres is the country, or sometimes housing guardians - disadvantaged people allowed to live there and care for the property. The construction of flats could violate privacy of many residents of the road behind backing the church. Demolition of this building would remove a prominent landmark from Balham's skyline, losing a building dating back to the 1880's!
