Let's expand this page by telling friends about it! I'm pleased my agitation of this issue a week ago, last Wednesday evening, has finally brought some action (words only, actually, so far) from the council - which. has. a. role. in. this. (Pls don't start on which arm of govt is responsible! That argument is dead and buried.) Thanks to the 100s of supporters of my post on Noticeboard the council seems to have got it through its skull that we need action NOW, not more plans, talks, excuses. OR it has been prompted into seeming to pick up the issue thanks to a number of uncomfortable comments responding to my Wednesday post. This earned me a ban from Noticeboard - couldn't be happier if that's their level of comprehension of what a community noticeboard should be about. The truth hurt someone? * Firm opinions should be aired, not intimidated into hiding.
* We need posts here of your delays (half hour from Clifton junction; 25 mins from Ruins Way to CBD, etc) emergencies, accidents, instances of elderly blocked from their homes in Highfields, hospital staff stuck in a line way back to the main hospital entry, barging in to Coles roundabout from Major Innes, Sherwood blockades, aggressive failure to merge ... to paint a picture for authorities of how bad it is. Today Ch7 finally got footage in the typical daily jam -- pity it didn't happen in time to show Leslie how bad it is.
