in terms of resident interest. It was difficult to get to the boards to see traffic calming layouts.
In fact I came away not seeing the proposals for Chester Rd !
It was good to see head highways honcho Neal Cockerton, Head of Transportation and Assets in attendance. His team did a very good job of explaining traffic calming to the attendant crowds.
Councillors from the village included County Cllrs Cindy Hinds and David Williams. Also Cllrs Tom Jones, Colin Bithell and Clive Weed.
I thanked Chairman Cllr Tom Jones for the backing of Penyffordd Community Council.
Introduced myself to Neal Cockerton and thanked him for making the consultation possible
Had a very good talk with Ian Jones Senior Highways Engineer about traffic calming techniques.
He also told me he travelled on one of the last trains on the railway line that used to route through the middle of the village.
Forms were available to fill in with regards traffic calming for Chester Rd and Hawarden Rd, for and against. Officers will now analyse feedback and responses to see what way forward ( or backwards) will be taken.

I am told there are those against traffic calming. To my mind those who should have the most say are those that live on the roads blighted by large amounts of through traffic. If you live in a cul de sac or quiet road your point of view should count less.
