It is important because it is blatant discrimination against Campervans (and Minibuses)

HS2 is a political vanity project which is costing the UK over £50 billion pounds of public money - the equivalent of the entire deficit which could otherwise be spent on much-needed services and communities. There is, as yet, no parliamentary authority to build this railway, and this flawed project has been repeatedly questioned and criticised by economists, parliamentarians and the many communities, families and individuals who will be impacted by this most socially and environmentally damaging scheme. Above all, HS2 is a totally unnecessary 'folly' which will see a generation of children growing up surrounded by construction and spoil lorries, and many of our older residents living out their lives in the shadow of the destruction caused to their homes, communities and landscapes.

There is currently no safe way to cycle between Totnes and Newton Abbot. The A381 is the only route over the river Dart and it is simply too dangerous for cyclists. Access to footbridge, the only other bridge over the river, would enable cyclists and walkers to travel safely out of Totnes to the north east and west. This would ease congestion and improve the health and wellbeing of the residents of Totnes and Newton Abbot and all the villages that lie between. In addition, this route would serve to complete the missing link in the National Cycle Network. The route in question is called NCN2 and runs from Dover to St Austell. The missing link lies between Totnes and Newton Abbot. However, Devon County Council want to sign off an alternative route that bypasses Totnes altogether. We believe that this is a huge missed opportunity as it will have a negative impact on the town in the form of lost revenue from cycle tourism. Please help support our campaign by asking Devon Council not to bypass our town but to directly liaise with South Devon Railway to appease their concerns regarding security. The bridge was part funded by public money and is a valuable asset to Totnes and its transport infrastructure. However, it is only being used exclusively for customers of the railway and not for the overall benefit of the community. We need the council to help us convince the railway that we can secure their important tourist attraction and that opening up access to the bridge would actually benefit their business going forward. We have had discussions with both South West Water and the only private landowner involved, and neither have any serious objections to our proposal. Our petition has generated almost 3000 signatures, many with comments expressing the importance of the scheme to the local and wider community. What we are missing is support from Devon Council. We do not need another study, we do not need any more consultants, there are no other routes that offer value for money. Our proposal is a valid practical solution with many benefits to the local community in terms of congestion, health and tourism. Our proposal is backed by the community, Sustains, all the local schools, local businesses, local and regional MP's and is backed by South Hams District Council. We appreciate the cycle path will require an estimated £300,000 (although we believe this estimate to be excessive). We are happy to co-ordinate the funding process going forward, however this option will never come to fruition if we don't get agreement in the first place. So please Devon County Council - please don't sign off the National Cycle Network Route 2 so that it bypasses Totnes. Instead please get on side and help negotiate with the South Devon Railway to open up a public resource for the benefit of us all.

As stated above there are many people that find it very difficult to walk to bus stops outside Zebon Copse, especially in very bad weather.

Civil Parking Enforcement has at its heart legal principles of fairness, justice and public service. On all three counts , local councils and central government including the department of transport have repeatedly failed to provide clear directions to the 'operation' of the system within the meaning and spirit of the law. There is a clear lack of imagination and the wrong uses of technology. No road user sets-out to break the law , cause congestion or invite upon themselves costs they have no budget for. Who wants to go for a £40 shop and pay a £60 parking fine ? Now is the time to reform the parking 'regime' for economic gains , user satisfaction , improved revenues based on positive actions , new jobs and the latest technologies .

The future of the very first inter-city passenger railway, which opened on 15th September 1830, is under threat. The Manchester Liverpool Road railway station is where it all began: from the railways of old, which made our modern civilisation possible, to the railways of the today, which provide the sustainable transport needed to combat climate change. This incredible part of our international history, with its grade 1 and 2* listed buildings, is in essence, a working station, though it is cared for by the Museum of Science and Industry. It is still connected to the National Rail Network: you can visit the station today, on a real steam train, just as people have done for the past 185 years. Network rail want to change that: as part of an otherwise welcome scheme to connect Manchester Victoria to Manchester Piccadilly, they plan to sever the line. The very first railway will no longer BE a railway: just a museum piece, nothing more. Part of a depressing wider trend of poor strategy and planning, slow obliteration of Northern history and culture and legal wrangling over common sense issues at the tax payers expense, this case involves a 3 million pound "deal" with the Museum of Science and Industry who have abandoned their responsibility to protect this site and a crass lack of respect by National Rail for the history of their own raison d'etre.

People who live and work in the area cannot get to where they need to be as there is a permanent ban on right turns

This will ease the constant traffic congestion in the city. Please see all the evidence that we have collated in the form of videos taken on various days at various times. All discussions and evidence can be found on Hereford Voice. www.herefordvoice.co.uk

It is important because London's buses no longer accept cash. For many people on low income having £5 locked away in a card is simply not an option. This makes it impossible for many of the people we share the city with to use public transport. This creates a class of people who are entirely unable to use the bus even when the do have the £2 fare for their journey. The scheme seems to serve no purpose beyond providing TFL with a large amount of their service users capital in the bank. A cynic might argue that it's a social engineering device designed to keep the poorest in our society out of sight and out of mind from the everyday population, however even it is simply an oversight brought in by a committee who earn enough money to never have experienced this problem, it is a system that is not fit for purpose. To argue that the deposit is a deposit on the card is simply nonsense. When the deposit is refunded, the card becomes a useless piece of plastic waste that cannot even be reinstated by repaying the £5 interest levy. There is no good reason whatsoever that an oyster card should not be available at any time of the day free of charge to anyone who wishes to pay the correct fair for their journey. As an occasional rough sleeper and a person unable to claim job seeker benefits due to having no permanent address, I have on numerous occasions found myself having to cash out my card and then pay a premium on the bus simply in order to get myself to the occasional work I am able to find, and then even should I make enough tips to afford the bus, and even if I finish work during the hours where it's actually possible to purchase an oyster card, I still need to find an additional £5 over and above the fare just to get home. This compounds poverty in numerous ways. Not only am I then forced to pay a higher fee on the train but frequently find myself unable to travel at all if my journey requires a bus. I am then forced to reflect on the long occasionally dangerous walk home, as I burn off far more of my hard earned calories than I need whilst empty buses simply pass me by, that London values my time as little as my safety and basic humanity. A perfect illustration of how this serves as a very real and easily resolvable example of how poverty creates more poverty can be shown by the following story. "Having cashed out my oyster card to afford the train into town to look for work, I had essentially nothing left at the end of the day. I invested my last 1.30 on a pen. I used the pen to make street art. Enough people wanted to patronise me that I made 11.10 and something to eat. I was now delighted to find that after my days work i had enough money to restock a new pen for the following days work, put a five pound deposit on an oyster card, use the remaining money to pay my fare and have enough change to drink some water on the way home. Except i couldn't, because there was no where in the city i could purchase an oyster card. Instead i was forced to wear out my shoes and burn all the calories i had earned wandering the streets to keep warm for the next three hours before eventually being let into the station. At this point i found there where still no facilities to purchase an oyster card, leaving me the option to spend 6.90 on a one way ticket, leaving me a valid oyster card with 4.80 credit down short of what i would have made, or spending another hour of my life waiting for the rush hour when the price of a single oyster trip would leave me exactly as poor as the the one way ticket, but with my money trapped in a transit system i no longer felt confidence in. Neither of these options felt like the best way for me to increase the odds that i could afford a regular monthly ticket in the future so i just walked onto the train through the unstaffed barriers." TFL is there to serve all of our fellow citizens and visitors, and it is disgrace that people on the breadline are disadvantaged and dehumanised by the necessity of keeping capital that they do not posses inside TFL's bank account simply in order to gain access to the public transportation system.

Incredibly, people don't know they are allowed in box junctions at a right turn if their way is clear,or how to use mini roundabouts. Everyone remembers Reginald Molehusband and "don't dazzle, dip your headlights". The police don't do it so someone must. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3R7hG_pLaI

Stroud's current 'temporary' bus station does not have the facilities a bus station should. Proper shelter, waiting room and cafe are examples. A potentially viable alternative site is London Road car park. Bus stops will remain at the current site, while the new site will become the station proper. If this possibility is to be further explored, support is needed from Stroud residents. This petition gives you the opportunity to lend your support to a cause which could benefit Stroud.

TFL have made all travel for children under 11 free in London on buses, trams, underground and overground trains. In addition other train service providers, also provide free travel to those under 11. However almost all train lines in South London require children aged 5-10 to pay. Those people with young families who live in South London are the losers in this postcode lottery. The main train lines who still make children under 11 pay are run by Southern, Southeastern and Thameslink. This petition is addressed to David Brown the CEO of the Go-Ahead Group; and Alistair Gordon the UK CEO of Keolis Group; as these companies own Southern, Southeastern and Thameslink. Travel should be made free on all trains within London for under 11's - to create a fair price for train services regardless of location. https://tfl.gov.uk/fares-and-payments/travel-for-under-18s/travelling-with-children
