I live down this road and I agree that the traffic for those days was terrible. It was caused purely by the fact that the clinic car park was closed (due to a large tree becoming dangerous and having to be cut down, the note attached the chain did state this to anyone who was interested.) and the clinics not let their patience know about the problem. This lead to 10+ people arriving in cars at the same expecting to find a place to park. Traffic down this road is always fairly constant and I believe that the only cause of this traffic was the car park closure and all the people who were driving to the clinic without knowing about the issue. LEave your political agenda’s at home when trying to write about facts.

i AGREE, the library and the sessions house should not be demolished.

Tania – I hope the fear of many in oak hill and shared by me was unfounded but if not make sure you sign Paul’s nomination papers. The new school is progressing well and we will soon see how things go with traffic.

Actually Tania I don’t know what exactly had caused the horrendous snarl up, though the fact that the Health Centre car park was chained off obviously didn’t help. The build up of traffic in the area is definitely not a synthetic issue as many local residents have been desperately concerned about it ever since the proposal to build both a new ‘polyclinic’ AND a large primary school on the same site was first adumbrated about 4 years ago. My offence. if you can call it that, was to ensure that the voice of those local residents was not ignored by the powers that be. After the 2010 election it was ignored by the local councillors, who were seen to triumph over their own constituents outside the Council Chamber in a display I found sickening.
However, we must move forward and my hope is that the fears we expressed about traffic prove groundless. This is my sincere hope for the residents of Oakhill.
Thank you for the compliment. You can sign my nomination paper in 2014 if you like!

Come on Paul, you know this has nothing to do with the new school or hospital
Stop trying to create issues that dont exist, that is the sort of thing Nick Kilby does and why he lost. You are better than that and why you should have been the candidate.

Work has started on the Red Lion site. Linden Homes 1 and 2 bed luxury apartments (what has happened to the 8 x 3 bed flats I wonder) and the pile driver is in situ today

I expect so for some of the time at least. They won’t want bits of masonry or what have you falling on the heads of pedestrians. However I haven’t any hard evidence on this, or for how long such a closure might last.
