• Slow Down for St Leonards
    The area has four schools and two playgroups serving hundreds of children and families, as well as many retired residents, cyclists, dog walkers and joggers. The road is a busy route and frequent speeding and dangerous driving has been observed despite the 30mph residential area limit. There have been 10 collisions in the last four years (source: https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/roads-and-travel/road-safety/accident-locations-map) and we want to prevent this happening in the future with the introduction of measures to reduce speeding and make it safer to cross the road. • We are calling for a pedestrian crossing near the junction of St Leonards Road and Brambling Road. • We also want more signage, police patrols and community support to slow down the road. • We urge all drivers to take care and remember the speed limit is 30mph. Please sign our petition urging West Sussex County Council to put in a pedestrian crossing in St Leonards Road before someone dies. Thank you for your support – together we can make a difference. If you have any comments or would like to get involved you can contact us on 07799 267486.

  • keep 387 running around ridge hill after the 9th of april!
    as this is a large estate, ridge hill will have only 1 bus service running on the estate and expecting people especially those who are disabled like myself to walk 400meters to the hospital using the 389 which is ALWAYS FULL and no one likes to move to let us disabled sit down. i for one rely on the 387 to get directly into the hospital and i not being the only one thinks this is a disgrace. and all done without a public consultation!

  • Stop Manchester Airport's proposed drop-off charging
    Airports as a rule are already over-expensive and exploit captive-audiences who need to use them for air travel. There is no alternative if one wishes to fly. These privately-owned behemoths (not just Manchester Airport) kowtow to foreign shareholders where profitability and dividends seems to come before service to the public, who after all, are the life-blood of the airport. There will be absolute driver chaos in the airport as people try to avoid paying this punitive admission fee; there is already a £3 charge to taxi drivers to collect passengers from Terminal 1 which they pass on to the passenger. Only in the UK do airport owners get away with charging an admission tax.

  • Free travel pass for all people when they reach 60.
    It is important to me because the current system allows people in Scotland,Wales, Northern Ireland and London to have a free travel pass for use on buses, train and tube. The same transport companies such as First buses and Virgin trains... provide transport across the UK. If it was a case of no one having a pass at age 60 I could accept that but, why only people living in England. It's a form of segregation that is unfair and wrong.

  • Special Education Needs and Disability school transport crisis: Waltham Forest
    Families in Waltham Forest with children with special education needs and disability depend on existing transport provisions to get their children to school, either because they go to a special school which is further from home, or because of their disability they are unable to travel to school unaided. In February 2018 lots of children in Waltham Forest who had previously been eligible for transport to take them to school were suddenly refused transport. This includes children with autism, deafness, cerebral palsy and other disabilities. Families have had to go through the stress and worry of amounting appeals against the decisions. Some families have had transport reinstated after appeal. It is not clear how many children and families that are affected have not appealed, either because they are not able to appeal or do not know they have the right to appeal.

  • To Provide School Transport Provision to the Children of Birchgrove and Llwyncelyn
    Many parents do not have cars and feel that it is both too far for young children to walk, especially in bad weather, and is also unsafe because of the busy roads along the route - despite officers stating otherwise. Does gan nifer o rieni ddim ceir, ac er gwaethaf honiadau am ddiogelwch y llwybrau gan swyddogion y Cyngor, credwn fod y daith yn rhy hir, yn enwedig mewn tywydd garw, ac yn rhy beryglus.

  • School Transport to Darran Park Primary and YGG Llyn y Forwyn for Blaenllechau pupils.
    We feel that the distance from Blaenllechau to both schools in an unfair distance for a child to walk especially Infants aged children (3-7). This would be considerably worse in the Winter months. Also with some children in full-time and some in part-time this could means numerous trips to and from school in one day. Traffic around the school is already an issue and this could lead to further increase in traffic flow around the school. We feel no consideration has been taking in declaring the route to school as a "safe route". There are being no extra measures introduced to increase the safety of our children. Public transport is not an option as we only have one bus every hour, which would either make you 40 minutes early for school or 20 minutes late.

  • Urgent need for traffic lights at the lethal junction of Linley Lane/Linley Road - Alsager.
    In 2001 Alsager resident Graham Lownes died at the age of 36 in a collision at the junction. His family asked for traffic lights to make the junction safer back then, they are still waiting 17 years later. Crashes happen regularly at that dangerous junction, with another one just last weekend. We want action from Cheshire East council now. We demand traffic lights to be installed with no further delay.

  • Let's get a safe crossing at Clermiston Primary
    There have been a lot of near misses with pedestrians, I witnessed a cyclist being knocked off his bike at school pick up time. I have seen numerous car accidents (all be it minor ones) which could of been a child. I think campaigns to get parents to use their cars less has failed and unfortunately some people are still being selfish and parking in forbidden zones. An area to cross safely away from the chaos will potentially save a child's life. Let's get as many signatures as possible to tell the council that we want and need a crossing!

  • Stop Closure of Overground Ticket Offices in West Hampstead and Elsewhere
    Our ticket offices provide an incredible valuable service to residents and to the many thousands of people who interchange between tube and other rail services every day. The helpful staff sell tickets for any rail journey in the UK. They provide an enquiry and Oyster top up service, to fill the gap left by the closure by Boris Johnson of our tube station ticket office. They provide help for the many visitors from abroad who travel through West Hampstead. Members of the local amenity group, West Hampstead Amenity & Transport, have told us that, if they could not easily buy mainline tickets, they would go by car instead. When our Tube ticket closed, the busy tube station at West Hampstead was - and still is - frequently left unstaffed with the barriers open. It seems that this was caused by former ticket office staff leaving and not being replaced. This in turn encourages crime and anti-social behaviour by allowing anyone to enter the system without a ticket. The same thing could happen on the Overground, which is one of the most successful rail projects anywhere in the country. TfL's website states that this is a “Modernisation of Customer Service”, whereas in fact no improvements are specified in the documents that they have supplied, and the move will worsen the service for passengers who need help and/or those who need to use a ticket office. The proposals appear to have been based on inaccurate figures for the number of tickets sold and they fail to reflect the value of having a national rail enquiry office in local communities. If this methodology were used on the whole national railway system, there would be hardly any railway ticket offices left across the whole country, and whole swathes of the UK would be without a retail facility for purchasing tickets. Finally, if the ticket office at West Hampstead is closed we've been told that the ticket office in the new West Hampstead Overground station will be built! The station is under construction at the moment, and the design of the station will be changed to exclude a ticket office from the building project. Therefore, we must fight the plans.
