Constant flow of children in area. The road serves 3 Primary Schools and 2 High schools. The present speed ramps do not deter vehicles to slow down in fact the opposite. A 7.5 ton weight limit would stop lorries and buses and Chicanes would reduce the speed of all other vehicles

It is an outdated tax that now has no other function than to support the department that administrates it. The equivalent income to treasury could be added to the price of petrol at the next budget at zero financial cost.

Cars today [2014] are essential, this may because local transport is lacking or the many reasons why so many Brit's commute. Many cars have only one occupant. Cars have become Egotistical Status symbols. They are lasting longer and longer and are now so cheap to buy (pre-owned) the UK has a log-jam problem and a serious parking problem. The current Gov's Road Tax system is abused and should be geared to the smaller car whilst penalising i.e. - HUGE 4x4's used totally out of context.

Amazon has avoided tax in the tens of billions of pounds and it is inappropriate for them to be given such high profile locations to promote themselves and sell to the public whilst starving the public purse of much needed tax revenue and taking advantage of job losses at TFL with the closure of ticket offices.

On Monday 23rd June, a peaceful protest by members of Sheffield Disabled People Against The Cuts and Barnsley Retirees Action Group was broken up by British Transport police. The protesters were taking part in the Freedom Ride, a long-running protest against cuts to free travel provision in South Yorkshire. Witnesses report that the police used heavy handed tactics. One witness, Jen Dunstan, of Sheffield Disabled People Against the Cuts, said: “Dozens of elderly and disabled people have been left with bruising. Some have cuts where their skin has broken from being pushed and shoved. “A placid and calm gentleman was roughly manhandled. I am angry and shocked. The police are meant to protect elderly people.” A journalist from the Sheffield Star was present, and tried to video events on his phone. He was ordered to erase footage he’d recorded on his phone because he did not have permission to film on private property inside Sheffield station. When he initially resisted the request and continued to film, he says he was told he could be arrested under terror laws. A statement from Northern Rail said: “Members of the media must have written permission from the train operator which manages the station before undertaking any filming on station property. Under no circumstances are Northern Rail employees to be filmed without prior agreement from the Northern Rail press office.” Fortunately, other witnesses were able to video the behaviour of the police on Northern Rail's property. The treatment of the elderly gentleman can be seen here:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svv9YcyZ6Os&list=UUiZU8ySSrpSg-qhR3BsYSSQ Many people who view this video will think that this treatment is disproportionate for an old man accused of fare-dodging, especially when he is taking part in a legitimate peaceful protest. In the video, five burly police officers are pinning the elderly gentleman down so that he cannot move, despite no visible signs of protest or resistance from him. It is not within the rights of Northern Rail, or any other organisation, to try to ban filming on their premises, when that filming clearly shows a questionable activity taking place with the collusion of that organisation. It is anti-democratic to try to silence the press in this way. Please sign this petition to force Northern Rail to retract their statement, and issue an apology that recognises the right of journalists and the public to film wherever they wish when a breach of a person's rights is taking place.

There have been accidents there and temporary signage often falls over shortly after being placed

There is no need to use a phone when driving and no call is more important than another persons life. Our roads are more dangerous because of people ignoring the law and they can do this because the risk of getting caught is low and the penalty is insignificant.

This area is public and the grass was put there for all to enjoy not for a few to destroy. Money is wasted paying grass cutters where there is little grass left in some places. You can't even walk your dog on the grass because of lorries and cars blocking the way. It's also dangerous for the cars trying to leave their own driveway as their vision is obstructed. Now there is a hole in the ground caused by vehicles parking on the grass verge. How much will it cost to repair that?

The residents who live within TfL zone 6 who have London Freedom Pass are recognisable accepted to use all TfL transport and National. ENCTS passes are not. It is because some areas within TfL zone 6 are not managed bt the London Borough Councils. As we live within TfL zone 6 and managed by Tanridge Council (Surrey), those residents who live in London have Freedom Pass take their granted for using our nearest railway stations for free travel to/from London that our ENCTS disabled concessionary pass cannot. This is unfair. Have they met the Equality Act 2010 regarding our concessionary passes that are limited use whilst people with London Freedom Passes can be used everywhere in England including all TfL transport? I discovered that the funds for TfL are partly from the Central Government Fund where we pay our taxes, why we don't have this benefit?

This matters greatly because every day we are giving a terrible impression of our country to incoming business people, tourists and other visitors by the shocking inefficiency of our airport checks and controls. Often they are staffed by illiterate and surly staff. One short example: on Sunday 18 May at 0700, there were enormous queues at Heathrow Terminal 5 as hundreds of people queued at border control after disembarking from incoming flights. There were not enough staff at the individual inspection booths. Even people on 'Fast Track' were made to queue beyond any reasonable duration. People were shouting at security (Mitie) and Border Agency staff and those staff in turn were rude or dismissive. The security staff were patently ill-trained to cope with the situation. Those being made to go through security and scanning again (despite just coming off flights) were subjected to another huge queue and lengthy wait. The majority of bags were being checked for explosives. One Muslim woman on her way to Bahrain was in tears having just received bad news from home: she was ignored by security staff. A businessman from South Africa said he would never, ever again fly via Heathrow. When politely challenged, the man wearing the "Supervisor" vest was also dismissive and said if there were fewer retail outlets, there'd be more room for security controls. What a terrible impression of the UK. What are we thinking of?

This situation cannot be left unchecked (The UK government has been successful in reducing the patrol of roads by local Police forces to almost nil and, as a driver that drives some 25-30,000 miles per year in the UK, can certainly vouch for the lack of Police patrols and, the increasing carnage caused by poor driving standards of HGV drivers. My particular collision was caused by a female HGV "Tramper" (trampers live in the HGV vehicle for many days and sometimes, weeks) who, at 60mph, drove into the side of my car causing us to be flipped 4 times across 3 lanes of the motorway then, taking out 60 metres of the central reservation steelwork. We were cut from our car after being treated for only minor injuries (Luckily) We then learnt that the HGV driver had initially tried to drive away from the crash site then, after being interviewed by Police, admitted to falling asleep at the wheel. She had been driving for some 34 hours and had tampered with the Tachograph display (the tachograph machine is a legal requirement in most HGV vehicles which monitors the driving habits of the current driver. There are imposed break periods and "Stop/Start" recordings within the mechanism. Unfortunately, many drivers (it would appear), have learnt how to override this mechanism and, hence, can drive much further and over longer periods of time). Having researched this situation with 3 Police forces in the UK, I have sourced that very few HGV drivers are ever tasked with proving their working patterns (indeed, some Police Officers are not trained in Tachograph use for HGV purposes). Further, and on the admission of several Police Officers, most foreign HGV drivers, when causing infringements to UK road law, are sent on their way without any charge, fine or loss of vehicle after causing mayhem with other road users. Several Police Officers being heard to say that "The paperwork is too time consuming and, the Courts will not allow us to bring these charges before them due to the fact that the drivers will be long gone into their home country before it has a chance of being heard in the Courts". This is unacceptable - the laws should be changed to allow the Police to operate as their counterparts in other countries. Other countries Police forces can, after such misdemeanours, confiscate vehicles, impose roadside fines, detain HGV drivers for court appearances next day and even, summon the employers of that particular HGV Driver to appear in court also. There is an increasing number of HGV road accidents whilst being driven by poorly trained and badly managed so-called Professional drivers. This needs to STOP.
