Hi Lynne Answers to questions 1. Parking will be on the shops side of the Strand 2. 34 spaces, (This includes loading bays which can be parked in by anyone and spaces reserved for disabled drivers where restrictions apply) 3. The spaces will broadly be where they were before the work started 4. There will be 30 mins free parking on the Strand. You will need to get a free ...
@Fred It has been explained several times that your recollection of facts is wrong and misses out key steps of the consultation process. The previous Conservative/Lib Dem administration on the Town Council voted to support "Timed Access" to the Strand, which meant Pedestrianisation. It was Voices for Dawlish Councillors who lobbied hard after the May 2011 election to have the ...
The Town Centre Manager does just that. For Councillors to duplicate that process would I suspect just cause confusion. The proverbial too many cooks spoling the broth. Speaking personally, I shop regularly on the Strand and talk to traders all the time as a customer. I'd like to think that Jen and others know me well enough to raise any concerns they have.
The traders on the Strand are encouraged to raise any concerns they have about the construction work directly with the Project Manager or with the Town Centre Manager. They can approach the Council for further help if they do not find this sufficient. I am not aware that any trader has complained about the service they are getting from either of these two people.
It's the first I've heard about it and I'd want to know exactly what is being applied for before I express an opinion
the plans for the Strand works are available on the town council website. You can also ask to see them at the Libray and I expect that they are still available on the Devon County website. I've just looked again to check my facts, and the narrowing of the Strand at the crossing points is as shown on the plans
Hi Roberta. Not sure i understand the question, but if you mean with regard to the Strand Project you have for the first time ever elected Councillors taking part in social media, taking up questions directly with the County Council and posting information on this site, something the old style Councillors would never do
It was a slip of the tongue, but as you can see I've edited it out as it clearly bothers you I find it hard to take this secret names stuff seriously and would be surprised if most of us haven't by now worked out from the content of messages who most of the regular contributors are. But each to their own
There is an element of perspective to this. Last night I walked with my dog down the centre of the Strand and in reality the point you've photographed is wider than the picture suggests. That said, I am posing questions to the Project Manager about the Industry design standard for road width and asking for reassurance that the space is wide enough for larger vehicles such as those described by ...
That's fine Huw mclay1990@gmail.com
