• Save the Glasgow Queen St Station Arch
    Glasgow residents and visitors have been delighted to see the beautiful 1842 arch revealed in all its glory after the recent demolition of the 1970s Station facade. We'd like to see the arch preserved in the proposed design.

  • Stop the closure of the King's Lynn railway station revenue office
    No train departure from King's Lynn prior to 07:15am will have any on-board host presence. Trains departing prior to this are the busiest trains of the morning. Two thirds of the stations up to Cambridge are rural, un-staffed sites and quite often machines at these stations are unreliable and out of service. The revenue protection role was amended to the title of passenger host and by definition the role is predominantly customer service focussed, supporting vulnerable and elderly passengers in addition to providing safety and security.

  • Road Safety on Hampstead Lane, Highgate N6
    This stretch of road is used by many pedestrians every day. Most are local parents and their children, walking to and from either Highgate School, St Michaels, Highgate Primary or Channing. However, this stretch of road is very dangerous, particularly for children. Although it is a 20mph zone, cars frequently travel much faster than this. Although there are signs indicating the speed limit along the route, they are small and relatively inconspicuous and in places obscured by foliage. Perhaps because the route used to have a 30mph limit and also because it is a main thoroughfare out of Highgate, the existing signs do not seem to make an impact on how people drive. The risk to people walking is significantly increased by the poor quality of the pavements on both sides of the road. In several places on the North side the paving or concrete is uneven (where slabs are broken or worn or where tree roots are pushing through) and the risk of tripping over (particularly for children) is high. This side is also very narrow which means that in several places it is difficult to pass people going in the other direction or even walk two-abreast with a child. Because of the narrowness of the pavement and because cars do not/may not generally park along this route, if a pedestrian trips there is nothing to protect them from falling straight into the road. There are also a number of pot holes which fill with water on wet days which can only be passed by stepping into the road. Where other roads intersect with Hampstead Lane there is often little to differentiate road from payment: markings are worn and gutters are frequently full of leaves and water. Frequently large vehicles park in driveways in such a way that pedestrians are forced to step into the road to go round them. On the south side of the road, the T-Junction where The Grove meets Hampstead Lane is difficult and dangerous to cross due to the speed at which cars pull out of the crossing and the high density of traffic (increasingly The Grove is used as a cut-through from Highgate West Hill). Many children and their parents are at risk every day because of the combination of these factors and the Councils need to act to protect pedestrians. Hampstead Lane falls far short of the vision set out in the Mayor's Healthy Streets for London strategy (a system of policies specifically designed to help Londoners use cars less and walk, cycle and use public transport more). It is has excessive levels of noise, the air is very polluted, the intersecting roads are difficult to cross and people feel unsafe on it – all factors that actively discourage people from walking or cycling along this route.

  • Glasgow Parking (West) Crisis
    GCC are doing a fantastic job by stealth of fining residents who already hold parking permits. It's night after night, scores of tickets for £60 have been issued. This will drive away our friends, relatives and above all shoppers to Byres Rd. Prepare for a retail meltdown like in 2008 when there were 12 empty shops for 5 years on one of Scotland's alleged Premier shopping street, really! And the parking wardens are not observing for 10 minutes before issuing tickets. The last Labour led council started this scheme to fill their dwindling coffers. I want the SNP led council to fix it ASAP. I didn't vote for this parking regime, neither did the people who have signed this petition. What exactly is the extra revenue being spent on, certainly not the roads! The parking wardens have arrived en mass in white mini vans at gone 6pm and stay in the area until almost 10pm every night. Clearly they are not issuing enough tickets during the daytime to meet their quotas! One person told me allegedly they posse of parking wardens are a private firm bussed in from England, I will investigate further.

  • Safe Road Crossing
    Wester Ceddens Road links local residents to 4 primary schools, 1 secondary school, 2 nurseries, local shops and 2 churches. During term time the council provides 4 school crossing patrol personnel however, outside of school drop off, lunch and pick up times residents risk their lives attempting to cross Wester Cleddens Road. Furthermore, numerous housing developments have been built on and around Wester Cleddens Road which has increased traffic and the population.

  • Safety measure for pedestrians at the junction of Friern Barnet Lane and High Road (A1000)
    There are 3 primary schools and a secondary school in the immediate area. There is huge pedestrian traffic in the area and crossing Friern Barnet Lane is incredibly dangerous It is unsafe to cross the road. Families are forced to walk on the road as there is no pavement on the southside of Friern Barnet Lane Encouraging children to walk to school is important not only for health but also for the environment.

  • Pay at pump fuel stations
    It gives a message on the pump to pay at kiosk yet are unmanned at night. Please allow this option to pay for fuel as some people do not have £99 in their account every day of the week. To see this problem look at forecourt CCTV and see how many customers are driving to work on empty without getting the required fuel, hospital workers, night shift workers or college students trying to go to their families at the weekend or even your son or daughter who may not have a big budget. These groups of people could end up on the motorway without fuel. This system is about prevention of fraud yet there is CCTV and numberplate recognition. When you put your card & pin number full bank account details you are giving authority for the debit of the money from your account. If you had no intention to pay this would be surely classed as fraud with CCTV. The £99 money is held back so you cannot buy more fuel from anywhere else. A prime example would be if you put £10 of fuel in over the weekend period and you only had £100 in your account you could not put another £20 in your tank and would then become stranded and vulnerable.

  • RailPlan20/20 changes - London Bridge to Littlehampton
    On May 20th 2018 Thameslink and Southern train timetable changes. Passenger journeys in London and the south east have more than doubled in the last two decades. With such a growth Thameslink decided to reduce the number of trains on this route from 3 to 2. Both passing from Bedford with not enough capacity for the amount of passengers commuting on this route. In addition, the last train is at 5.55 not suitable for most City workers hence creating work issues work such huge working population. We need more trains!

  • Stop Advertising with Guns and Weapons
    These images are plastered all over the tube, buses, bus shelters, newspapers, magazines etc. Subliminally de-sensitising young minds that this is ok and the norm. Young minds and easily manipulated minds that see the hero carries a gun or knife. There has been 11 fatal shootings already this year in London, and endless knife attacks resulting in fatalities not to mention acid attacks. Though this may not be considered an important change we need to change the influence culture has. We can't change the films and games themselves but we can change the way they are sold to us, glorifying killing. And these small changes will contribute to the change in society. I have started an instagram page documenting what I see called. https://www.instagram.com/gunsonthetube

  • Proposed Parking Restrictions on Union Street, Stow.
    We wish to object to the proposed parking restrictions on the following grounds: 1 - Primarily Safety - the currently parked cars provide a very obvious traffic calming effect while the imposition of the restrictions would increase traffic speed and endanger local residents. 2 - The removal of the parking spaces would exacerbate the problem of the loss of all the parking we formerly enjoyed in the old Ashton House so that people particularly at the western end of Union Street frequently have to walk from the very opposite end of Union Street if they can find parking on the street at all. 3 - When the plans for the new estate were in planning and subject to consultation, traffic access to the estate was approved on the basis of the current layout. If it was acceptable then, why is it not acceptable now? 4 - As the meeting in February showed, the residents of Union Street are entirely against this proposed plan so for whose benefit is it?
