The 4 Forth Ward councillors have been working together on the problems raised by a very large public meeting in the Dudleys, principally around parking issues connected to the introduction of the guided busway system.
We have jointly written to the Marshall Poulton to formally request that the proposal to lay a yellow line and consequent parking restrictions in Newhaven Road parallel to Victoria Park be suspended. We meet with him next week to discuss this.
I am amazed, therefore, to be told that despite the imminence of a change (or halt) in the proposal, that signs, announcing said parking restrictions, are being erected as we speak. It is a red rag to a bull and serves only to inflame the local people who clearly believe we (i.e. the Council) don't know what we are doing and aren't listening to people either.
Sometimes I wonder if they aren't right....
