Tonight it was off to Dudley Bowling Club for a packed meeting (easily 60 people there) on the vexatious subject of the Council's plans to introduce a guided bus corridor in Newhaven Road. The people were not happy: not happy with the previous consultation; not happy with the scheme; not happy with the plans to paint a yellow line alongside Victoria Park...
Requested by Trinity Community Council to help set up the meeting I was disappointed I couldn't stay for the whole event (important family duty) but it was my view the scheme needs to be temporarily put on hold -even if only for a couple of weeks - till some amendments to make the scheme more palatable can be worked out. I understand that the four local councillors are to met in the next couple of days to try to reach a solution.
Tomorrow is another public meeting about road safety in Granton Road. I guess it will be a busy event too...no rest for the elected members in Forth...
