At tonight's Place Scrutiny Committee, a committee that I am not
actually a member of, I made a couple of brief contributions.
On the item North Thames Fisheries Local Action Group (FLAG) I asked
about finances and sustainability. I got some assurances on both topics.
I also contributed to the debate on Better Queensway where the
proposed new traffic flows were discussed. There are some serious issues here.
Whilst I do not think any scheme will be perfect, I certainly think this
deserves rigorous examination. I asked
about:
·
The impact of the removal of
the roundabout at the junction of Sutton Road and Southchurch Road
·
I wondered whether The Deeping
will be re-opened
·
I inquired as ti which part of
Chichester Road will be widened.
·
The extension of Sutton Road,
re-routing the junction with Southchurch Road and whether it would impact on
the church and council blocks nearby.
I also asked about the proposals for the Revocation of Pier Cycling
Byelaw. I was a little concerned that rickshaws will be allowed on the pier
prior to the widening of the deck (bringing the pier back to its 1970s width).
