Traffic management in Hele Park, Newton AbbotThe design and layout of roads within the Hele Park development has resulted in a number of 'Rat Runs' where cars are traveling at excessive speeds and across unmarked junctions. There is a need for junctions to be marked with the appropriate lines to indicate road priorities to prevent accidents.101 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Phil Bullivant

Stop The Cuts To Bus Services In The East Riding of YorkshireAlthough the bus services have now been revised and the original planned cuts have been reviewed with many services re-instated/protected; there still is the issue of cuts to subsidies for rural areas such as East Riding of Yorkshire from Central Government. We believe that public transport subsidies should be ring-fenced to protect supported services in rural areas. At present the revised services are leaving vulnerable people, those ‘medically unfit to drive’ and the elderly cut off from friends, relatives and essential facilities.52 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Preston Neighbourhood Watch

Stop Traffic Chaos in ‘Isle of Clogs’The Isle of Dogs have been plagued with repeated road, construction, utility and other works that have made the lives of residents, pedestrians, cyclists and the motorists very difficult, risky and unbearable - causing dangerous traffic conditions resulting in chaos, congestion and serious health and safety hazards. From the infamous shoe-protest in March 2016, when Docklands residents tied their 26 pairs of shoes to railings along Marsh Wall in the Isle of Dogs in a protest against traffic situation – things have not really improved. Unfortunately, despite requests to the Tower Hamlets Council and Mayor Biggs, the situation has failed to improve until something goes wrong and complaints are made or issue is highlighted in the media.

Defend the London Bridge threeLee, Dave and Saeed responded to a call for asssitance from a pregnant colleague who was being assaulted by a fare evader. The fare evader punched Lee Cornell twice in the head and stole his glasses. London Underground failed to make good their commitment to their staff that anyone who abuses or assaults their staff will be pursued through the courts. Instead they turned on the staff and dismissed Lee Cornell and gave final warnings to Dave Sharp and Saeed Sioussi. We are demanding those sanctions are over turned.2,540 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Eamonn Lynch

SUPPORT Plans to Build Tynemouth Watch House Garden CYCLE HUBThe CYCLE HUB will compliment our beautiful coastline whilst providing a 'stand-out' attraction for the many cyclists, tourists and general public whom already frequent the Spanish Battery. The development will assist with the enhancement and preservation of the Tynemouth conservation area and local heritage for generations to come. North Tyneside attracts approximately 5.8 million visitors each year who inject £279 Million into the local economy, supporting over 3500 jobs. This proposal will open a disused private garden into a considerate, visually low-impact CYCLE HUB that will only be visible from the southern aspect on the River Tyne. From the outset the building has been sensitively designed to ensure the iconic views to and from the Brigade Watch House remain unspoilt. The building will be sunk beneath a manicured lawn at the same level as the current garden. We have even gone as far as to store refuse bins below ground level. Two large car parks already exist to provide customers with parking. Additional spaces will be allocated for the sole use of the Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigades response vehicles, whilst residents parking will remain untouched. Those living on the Battery will be un-effected by the building as the aim is to cater for passing trade that already exists. The vast majority of our intended customers will arrive by foot or cycle. Our vision is to provide Tynemouth with a gateway amenity that links to the National Cycle Network and provides a valuable facility for Tynemouth residents and the wider general public. The development will ensure a notable finishing point for those tackling the challenge of the Coast to Coast/Coast to Castles/Great North Bike Rides. In essence the Cycle Hub will establish Tynemouth as a key destination within the cycling community. A multitude of independent reporting commissioned by UK GOV indicates that development and investment in cycling infrastructure and sustainable transport provides the following: • Creates inward investment to an area. • Brings more jobs and positively effects the labour market, contractors and wider infrastructure/services. • Increases health of those in the area, with exercise in excess of Chief Medical Officers guidelines. • Boosts the local economy and business • Creates a modal shift in the well being of individuals. • Increases social inclusion and connectivity. • Makes better cities and neighbourhoods. • A reduction in Crime Rate. • An increase in rental and property prices. • Eases congestion. • Improves air quality. The North East of England is renowned for its warmth and hospitality, we look forward to providing a facility that welcomes one and all.1,803 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Gareth Reece

Install a pedestrian crossing on the A43 at Weldon Lakes Priors Hall ParkThere are no facilities (shops, Cafes or Doctors Surgeries) on Lake View PHP estate and none planned for the foreseeable future resulting in residents having to drive to Weldon to access vital services. Children also have to cross the busy A43 to catch the school buses and pedestrians risk life and limb keeping fit. This leaves communities isolated.577 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Robert Riley

Give York Back to the PedestriansYork is a medieval city with narrow streets, ancient buildings and lots of tourists. Moving around parts of the city during the day can be difficult and dangerous, especially for those with limited mobility. There is constant traffic in parts of the city where there need not be, car users taking advantage of their privilege with no thought to the safety or rights of others. I believe that removing cars from York city centre would be beneficial to tourism, as it would make moving around the city easier. Additionally, heavy goods vehicles have done damage to a number of ancient buildings on Stonegate and Gillygate. Goods vehicles should be restricted to those of an appropriate size for the narrow nature of the streets in the ancient part of the city. The rights of a few car-users are currently trumping the rights of the majority of York residents. Polluting our air, crowding the city and causing danger to residents and tourists alike. Pedestrianisation will encourage the use of public transport and bicycles to access the city, thus improving the air quality in and around York and working towards a more sustainable future. Improving pedestrian and cycle access from residential areas to the city will further improve accessibility for those without the privilege of their own car. There are many ancient cities in Europe that are either partly or fully pedestrianised, without a significant impact on tourism or business. Make York an example to the rest of the United Kingdom for preserving the heritage of our ancient cities.31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Doxford
