Apparently not enough money around to staff it and there is talk of moving it back over to the park, the strange doc teuchter produced states a green area on the road between park and the adventure playground??
Loughborough residents could lobby to reinstate the original concept of the New Loughborough Estate.
How many days this year? One birthday party sounds a bit minimalist.
You keep getting me wrong. You really should have gone to that exhibition yesterday or Monday.
Aargh! Is it too much to ask, to actually look at the information provided, the information I've provided a link to twice already?A thing with 18 sides is almost a circle, right?
That document teuchter found is very interesting, the one that has disappeared and only exists now as a cached google shadow thing.
It's interesting because of the first paragraph, called 'background', which very clearly says that this is a measure designed to encourage cycling by making local journeys more difficult by car etc.
It doesn't say anything at all about 'a meaningful town centre'.
That bit, seemingly the key intention inspiration behind the closures, has been excised totally form all subsequent publicity / information about the closures.
The doc goes on to say 'it is anticipated that the whole area bounded by Camberwell New Rd, Denmark rd , Coldharbour Lane and Brixton Road will see a reduction in motor traffic though some roads may see an increase in local access traffic'.
Which has also never been mentioned in any of the council's communications about the closures that I've ever seen.
Why? I'm really stumped as to why the council would choose to go ahead with a plan that was (it now seems) designed for one purpose but present it so differently, sticking to the dogged repetition of that line about 'a meaningful town centre' and so on.
Yes. Looking through the appendices document it contained a much showing the boundary of the consultation area. I am within it, and I'm fairly sure I never received the initial info leaflet. I've also not recieved any of the leaflets supposedly sent out this week. If it's true that whoever Lambeth is employing to distribute them has just been dumping them on the street then they really need to sort this out. They need to not pay them, and do it again with someone else.
Yes, that one, for the last couple of weeks it was firmly pointed towards the start of the pedestrian area, I wondered if it had been commandeered by the council as a traffic cam but it's now pointing the other way
Grr.
I'm not sure that's entirely true - this is on their current "what you need to know" page
I wouldn't be surprised if they have decided not to actually prosecute anyone, so as not to further enrage people in what's already a rather tense situation.
The 3rd para of what he posted up now says they want to make the road narrower, not close it.
I'm glad you agree that it is at least mostly true though.
They were using it for decoy purposes.
I see that would make Loughborough Road less of a temptation for the north-bound commuter.
I think they should have that original proposal material up on the general info page. However I can see that maybe they decided not to so as to avoid confusion, with people looking at the original proposals and assuming that was what's going to be inplemented, rather than the scheme as revised following the consultation process.
Apart from the P5 bus route being kept where it is after the consultation showed strong resistance to the proposal to move it, has anything else changed (apart from the way the intention behind it is explained ?)
