The area opposite the station is indeed a serious hazard zone, and must surely have to be rethought. As newly installed it passes directly by the front door of the Brainwave charity shop and the front doors of flat entrances, Anyone stepping out onto the pavement is at serious risk of being bowled over. And I thought the Council was obsessed with Health and Safety - apparently normal safety rules ...

Cyclists continue to use the main road as I witnessed when travelling the relatively short distance to Sainsbury's on Saturday afternoon. Had I been able, I would have taken photos to prove a point as it appears that this cycle path is turning out to be an expensive white elephant & could even be dangerous in the summer months when cyclists and those alighting from coaches by the station come into ...

All the bins have a phone number on , to report full bins.

We have an increasingly ageing population. And I am one of those adding to it. So I may have (after all, who knows what the future holds?) a vested interest as to how the present crisis in adult social care might be resolved. Anyone any thoughts? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/10/13/eight-in-10-nhs-hospitals-not-safe-enough-amid-warnings-that-car/ ...

So how would the council know if the bins are full unless someone tells them? I guess that if they were to send council employees out and about to check the bins the council could  then be accused of wasting council tax payers' money.

So any thoughts on how any of the above could be rectified?

Ken - there should be a sign that states the council will be fined if the containers are not emptied in a timely manner. Typical council to try and make a profit out of their own ineptitude to regularly empty the recycling containers.

Who do the counclis down here actually support, the people that reside here or central governments whims and the major construction companies at the expense of the locals and their environment? Does Dawlish council actually exist or is it just a figment of my imagination? As I walk around Dawlish, on a daily basis, it annoys me that:- 1) Drunks congregating on The Lawn to consume ...
