New traffic calming measures outside Rhyl schools

Meanwhile no interest is paid to child safety in Penyffordd by Cllrs Tom Jones and Cllr Colin Bithell. Each day children have to battle against 40 - 50 mph traffic through village centre.
Most parents wisely do not let their school children walk or cycle to school as its just too dangerous.

Rhyl / Denbighshire council achieved funding through the Welsh Assembly Government’s Safer Routes in the Community initiative.

I attended a meeting arranged by Cllr David Williams which Cllr Colin Bithell chaired where it was agreed with Flintshire County Council officer Charles Hughes that Penyffordd Junior school would be approached to fill in forms for similar funding. This was just quietly dropped as Colin has no interest in traffic calming what so ever. This led me to state in my election literature that we had missed out on £67,000 worth of possible funding because the bottom line is that Cllr Colin Bithell has no interest in safety which is why I object to him continuing to be a school governor. Same goes for Tom as Colin doesn't do stuff without consulting Tom.

Cllr Linda Vidamour attended the meeting along with about 8 other residents.
