• Toll free Mersey Gateway
    This is going to cost the every day working man/woman £90 a month to cross the new crossing just to get to work or visit family and friends. It's not a crossing more a boarder wall for many.

  • Get EDF to re-instate their cycle/walking path on the A39 in Bridgwater
    If we lose this opportunity we fear that the land will be built on and we will have lost the chance to link safe cycling routes into and through Bridgwater forever.

  • Stop bus route changes to service 3 and 4
    This is a very important issue for the OAP's and disabled members of the communities affected. These people use our bus service as a way of staying completely independent for as long as possible. These changes to this bus route will leave the most vulnerable members of our community alienated. A short while ago, an elderly relative of mine walked home with a couple of bags of shopping. This is around the same distance as he would be forced to walk to and from his now closest bus stop - if these changes go ahead. Unfortunately due to this he suffered a heart attack. Thankfully he made a full recovery. My worry is that the people like the relative I speak of will just give up and stay at home. They shouldn't have to do this. We have had a bus service to Afoneitha for as long as I remember, having grown up there. It's important to our OAP's and disabled folk that this service isn't taken away from them. Stop the changes to service 3 and 4 - let Rhostyllen, Garden road and Afoneitha keep their vital bus service.

  • REDUCE THE SPEED LIMIT ON A361 KNOWLE - MULLACOTT CROSS AND OR INSTALL SPEED CAMERAS
    ‭‭This petition is to lower the speed limit from 60mph in this particular area and/or to install speed cameras. The stretch of road on the A361 from Knowle to Mullacott Cross has been the place of too many accidents and near misses for too long! Over the past 2 years there has been a fatality, countless accidents and in the last month alone there have been 3 serious accidents involving multiple vehicles, one of which needing assistance from the Devon Air Ambulance. We need to do what we can to make this stretch of road as safe as possible from now on! Please sign! You can make a difference! Thank you

  • Stop Commercial flights at RAF Northolt
    RAF Northolt has a proud history in the service of Britain, but after years of changes by the back door almost every flight is now commercial. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) recently increased the number of non-military flights from 7,000 to 12,000 every year with no consultation with residents. That’s in addition to the thousands of flights over west London’s already congested skies. Any other civil airport would have had to go through the proper planning process, allowing the public to have their say. But the MoD just hid behind the veil of national security and the local council seemed happy to let them. A secret report recently revealed Northolt could take up to 50,000 commercial flights a year, including regional airlines using bigger jets. Now they are preparing to spend £45 million of taxpayers’ money on renovations. With regional airlines like FlyBe lobbying hard to use Northolt “right now”, it’s not hard to work out why these changes are being made. This is the next step on the road to becoming a fully fledged regional airport. This could be your last chance to stop up to 50,000 commercial flights a year and Northolt effectively becoming Heathrow’s fourth runway. If you don’t want this to happen, join our campaign and tell the Government to end commercial flights at Northolt now. Please visit http://stopnortholt.org for more information.

  • Parking Charges
    This is loaded towards Shopping Centre to the detriment of all other businesses. Customers & patrons of shops, bars, restaurants etc. are put off frequenting the areas affected. Or if not put off, then penalised for using these areas.

  • Zebra crossing on Horseferry Road
    The road is heavily used by both vehicles and pedestrians. Unfortunately my son was hit by a car while attempting to cross at the island crossing. There has also been other pedestrian incidents including near misses. It is also used by two local schools as well as local residents and businesses. There needs to be a safer crossing in place for pedestrians which will encourage drivers to slow down and be more vigilant.

  • Blue Badges 4 Dementia
    Currently in England,Scotland and Northern Ireland to apply for a Blue Badge you have to have a walking difficulty or be registered blind unlike Wales.The lack of such an entitlement in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland is blatantly discriminatory and contravenes Article 20 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities UNCRPD, the right to personal mobility. The current situation exposes people with a cognitive impairment and their carers to real risks, excludes them from many activities, and threatens progress on the Government’s commitment to dementia friendly communities. A carer would have to let a person living with dementia get out of the car while they park and risk them becoming distracted and wandering away before they get out of the car and getting lost, this happened in a local supermarket car park and the person living with dementia was missing for 2 hours and needed a police search to find them

  • Traffic Light Crossing
    The community have voiced their concerns for example when you get off the bus to cross the road it takes for ever due to flowing traffic and when people do cross one part of the road it's another task to stand in the middle of the road in a small island with children and the elderly who are fragile. In the next couple weeks that area will be more busy than ever with Ramadan coming in a few weeks. I think this would be a amazing achievement specially just prior to an election which would get the community buzzing. The crossing is between two main bus stops toward Southall and Hayes, Heston, Hounslow also several major shopping stores such as Costco, Toys R Us and Tesco. Is it going to take someone to get injured or even killed?

  • Force Volkswagen/Audi/Seat/Skoda to revert emission software updates
    Volkswagen are making out that the software update is minor - but it has been independently shown that the updated software makes a dramatic change to the utilisation of the EGR valve. While this is the cheapest fix for Volkswagen to make, the engine was never designed to handle the increased soot loading, and is being made to fail sometimes within hours of the update being applied. VAG Group dealerships are routinely applying the software updates without even notifying customers of the impact they may have, knowing full well that their customers will encounter reliability problems as a result. The change to the EGR valve curves in the software mean that far more exhaust gas is recirculated in an attempt to low combustion temperatures, and produce less NOx. By doing so, the engine produces far more soot, which then clogs up the EGR valve, and DPF. Injector patterns have also changed, leading to higher duty cycles and again, premature injector failure. When engine's fail due to soot contamination, it can cause sudden loss of power, which during manoeuvres, or motorway driving can be lead to accidents. People are afraid to use their cars. Volkswagen are making their customers in the UK pay for their deceit by pushing an ill-conceived and hurried software patch out and hoping the problem will go away.

    This is about the health and safety of the children of surrounding areas. We need a lollipop person to protect them from being hit by vehicles. A young girl was recently hit just outside the school and more children are at risk of harm unless action is taken to make the crossing safer.
