Remove Falmouth's Rising Bollard
We call on Cornwall Council to remove the Rising Bollard at the entrance to Market Street in Falmouth, Cornwall, and allow 24/7 access to the businesses in Market Street, Church Street and Arwenack Street, and also the 168 space Church Street Car Park which is inaccessible between the hours of 1100 and 1600 daily.
Why is this important?
Falmouth needs this car park, and for it to sit almost empty and unused during peak shopping hours is a disgrace.
The removal of this bollard will also facilitate easier access for the elderly, disabled and young mums who currently have to struggle through the streets laden with shopping bags or pushing buggies.
The small car parks, such as The Moor and Well Lane are restricted on spaces, and the larger long stay car parks such as Grove Place and Town Quarry which are situated at either end of the town, are not that accessible if you have baggage or mobility problems.
Local Businesses want it removed, and so do locals.
Please help keep the High Streets of Falmouth alive, and support local traders.
