Yellow Line Meeting 10th July 6.30 pm Penyffordd Institute
My 2 penny worth
1. Traffic speeds in Chester Rd have increased since yellow lines have been put down. Not just my opinion. This is at school time. Ah! you say the school is moving. Still child cyclists will be using the main roads.
2. British Legion and Penyffordd Institute actions in closing down parking is very poor. We have residents here with no place to park off road. The suggestion that local residents pay a fee to the Institute deserves derision.

More anti Penyffordd community action
A sign in the Penyffordd British Legion carpark. No unauthorised parking.
So we have 2 local institutions, the British legion and the Penyffordd Institute turning their backs on local residents who are having difficulties with the new parking restrictions.
Social cohesion = Zero.

Yellow Line News
A gold star for Chester Rd as opposed to the Spar.
Just happens that there are various properties with cars and no parking facility. FCC have deployed an officer to book parking offenders. He hides behind hedges.
Cllr Alan Wight has requested a meeting with FCC CEO Colin Everett to discuss yellow lines.

Illegal Parking Outside The Spar
It's 8.30 pm and a resident has just dodged a parking fine on the new yellow lines.
Never been that keen on speeders who have the capacity to kill or injure.
Looks like Penyffordd Community Council are playing hard ball.

Parking Woes
Notices have gone up in Chester Rd / Penymynydd Rd for the extension of double yellow lines. This part of the village is old. Houses built with no parking facilities.
My neighbors have 7 cars, sometimes 10, parking for 3.
Cafe customers park here as its too difficult to park at the cafe.
Friday there was a row outside here when a cafe customer parked across 2 of the 3 parking spaces.
Penyffordd Institute have banned parking on their carpark.
Parking on Chester Rd actually slows traffic down.
PCC are not interested in a calm village environment. They think planting a few daffodils does the job.
We have a bypass but we are used as a major short cut.
Welcome to the new caring Penyffordd Community Council, the new social cohesion.
I expected better with new faces but its the same old same. No different to the Tom and Colin days.
Spar parking with the addition of the new yellow lines is going to be interesting.

Mandatory 20 MPH Welsh Assembly Law
Our MP Mark Tami lives in a village in Flintshire with a compulsory 20 mph zone through the village.
And Penyffordd, Nothing!
Wrexham BC has 100's of compulsory 20 mph zones.
The above image applies to schools but if its Ok for Mark its Ok for us
Penyffordd Community Council has seen over construction of smooth main road through the village. More yellow lines are coming to Chester Rd.
A speeders paradise.
Chester Rd Gas Roadwork
Job was supposed to take a week to coincide with school holidays.
Contractor dug trenches to expose gas pipes.
Gas pipe layout not to drawings supplied......
Pipe work has to be redesigned and approved.

I'm not voting in Council Election anymore
What's the point? We should be a community with a bypass. We are not. We are a community with a secondary trunk road which is unpoliced.
Most councillors of course live in cul de sacs.

Timber
Chaos before 9am after a lorry hit the road furniture. Residents had been parking away from the traffic lights to let traffic pass through better.
That was before Penyffordd Institute put a ban on cars parking on the Institute.....

Penyffordd Institute Parking Ban - Final Thoughts
Is it just coincidence that the parking ban is applied at the end of the consultation period for the planning application for the extension to the building?
None of this affects me but 15 of my neighbors must be less enamoured.
There will be a line of cars 150yds long in the evening. Penymynydd Rd reduced to one lane.
The adding of double yellow lines on Chester Rd, the shortage of parking spaces is folly. Penyffordd Community Council need to start doing their job.

Penyffordd Institute Car Park
For a 100 years people have parked at The Institute. Perhaps after the invention of cars...... But no longer. In future however if you are not using the building you can no longer park there. No overnight parking.
We have double yellow lines everywhere, with more to be put down on Chester Rd. Where are residents going to park? OK if you live on a new estate.
Penymynydd Rd will be reduced to one lane.
Perhaps an insurance condition?
There's a lot of residents pissed off about this.
Is this a sign of things to come?
