• 30mph Speed Limit In Hare Green, Great Bromley
    Speeding along the Harwich Road has become more and more a problem with a number of motorists exceeding the existing 40mph limit, as proven by our Community Speedwatch Team. Vehicles pulling out of side roads and pedestrians attempting to cross the road are all at risk.

  • Traffic Calm the A131 in Sudbury
    County Council Elections take place in May. This petition is your opportunity to tell your future Suffolk County Councillor to roll up their sleeves and invest in Sudbury street life. Sudbury's Town, District and County Councillors are well aware of the need for traffic infrastructure modernisation, but other than speculating on a Western Bypass that may happen in a future decade the reality is little if any effort has been made to manage existing traffic beyond the bare minimum. Indeed many villages have better traffic calming measures compared to Sudbury's crumbling roads. The UK Government is beginning to publicly acknowledge the health dangers of emissions and County Council's Nationwide are adopting the 20's Plenty initiative. It's time for Sudbury to Move With The Times.... We recommend the 20's Plenty website for further information on Traffic Calming: http://www.20splenty.org

  • Number 5 Bus Keep it Public and Funded !
    Elderly, disabled and the vulnerable are effected by the lack of social mobility, inherent in this exclusion as a service. This includes public sector workers, those working at Blackberry Hill Hospital the UWE training site, UBHT and also any new housing developments being built. That impacts on the economic and social well-being of the city and people that use Number 5 Bus Route. None of the people using the route or that filled in the survey including my self were asked. Wether we would like any part of the service to be commercialised. Leading to NO public consultation by the council around these planned changes, including whether the council will guarantee any shortfall of provision if the commercial operator does not fulfil the void under Public Sector Transport. The Mayor talked about looking at transport as an issue here is his chance. To do something positive about that very issue.

  • Don't limit free Lancashire scool bus passes
    It is not just families on benefits who are struggling to make ends meet and a charge of over £500 per year is a huge burden to those families who are not now eligible for a free bus pass . Free school transport is an essential for all those who live more than reasonable walking distance from school. This change penalises hard working families.

  • Maintain Moorwell Place on Eccleshill Recreation Ground
    Moorwell Place sits at the bottom of Eccleshill Recreation Ground. It is public right of way and the only pedestrian footpath leading from Moorside Road to the footpath that runs down the side of the recreation ground, by the bowling green. It is used by the residents of Eccleshill, including Parents with toddlers and pushchairs, children on their way to school, cyclists, followers of the Eccleshill History Trail and many others, along with the residents of the street. At present, it is in a sorry state. It is muddy and full of deep potholes, making it extremely unsafe. It is inaccessible to mobility vehicles/wheelchairs. For a number of years, the residents of Moorwell Place have asked the council to maintain the road which, although they have previously acknowledged responsibility for, they have refused to maintain in an effective manner. More recently the residents have been told that the road is an “unadopted road” and the council have refused to undertake any maintenance work. After some investigation, it has been established that the road was in fact created by the local board (the council) in 1864 and as such cannot be deemed an unadopted road – it is in fact a road created by the council in 1864 and they have failed to maintain it. Further evidence suggests that a court case in 1864 established that the council were responsible for the creation of the road – but that it must remain part of the recreation ground "intact" forever. Council asset management documents show that the road is part of the recreation ground which is a registered village green. The council are owners and managers of the village green and are responsible for its maintenance.

  • Nationalise Hospital Car-parking and push all profits into the NHS
    Large companies like Indigo, who provide car parks at Hospitals around the country make millions of pounds of profit charging extortionate fees to patients, relatives and staff who need access to the hospitals. Only a small portion of these profits are turned over to the NHS, with the majority going to tax subsidised firms who continue to rake in millions of pounds. If these long-term contracts were torn up by our Government and NHS England, prices could be regulated, and all of the profits could go directly into the struggling Health Service. As it stands, these heartless companies are ripping off thousands each day, the NHS is getting a bad deal, and more and more power is being directed into the hands of a few. http://www.southwales-eveningpost.co.uk/nurse-given-parking-ticket-while-she-was-in-hospital-possibly-trying-to-save-someone-s-life/story-30155046-detail/story.html Change is needed now!

  • Motorcycle licence Grandad law
    Having held a full car driving license since 1995 I feel very insulted and stupid that I can only ride a 50cc moped without L plates. I'm 6'2 a push bike can go faster than me on a 50cc just imagine how fast I can go with a pillion very dangerous. I've been disabled for the last 8 years and had my motability car taken away due to cutbacks. I cannot afford to buy a car let alone keep one on the road, the only way I can go anywhere is on a 50cc moped which is dangerously slow so I traded it in for a 125cc scooter now I have to find 100 every 2 years for a CBT and display L plates if I want to go anywhere with my wife she has to get the bus, I can't get the bus because I can't walk far enough to get to the bus stop.
