Hi David
A bit rough last night at the Community meeting!
Another day here today as normal. Chester Road a race track. I have been behaving like a county councillor today. A meeting at 7.00am with Inspector Alun Oldfield of North Wales Police. Then a 10.00 am meeting at Alan's Skips.
Do I want your job? No, not really.
There is still this problem of all this traffic. Flintshire seems to be plagued with traffic. Did you see my letter The Evening Leader published for me yesterday?
I have done a little report on last night's Penyffordd Community Council Meeting. Various comments throughout the meeting by Colin Bithell CC show a distinct lack of will in tackling this problem. Is he in the pockets of Flintshire Highways or is there a conflict of interest with his position on Broughton Community Council?
Mold have excellent County Councillors. If you click on the image you will see outlined in red a very good strategy for dealing with speeders.
Perhaps you and Colin can do a site meeting outside The Chinese. Saturday teatimes is good as 100's of shoppers charging through the village on their way home and boy racers zooming around the village.
Perhaps you can persuade North Wales Police to do an operation similar to Mold. I have all the intelligence necessary to advise on an efficient use of their resources.
Weekend traffic is another matter. Hundreds of thousands of holiday makers from the North of England who are used to charging up and down Chester Rd on the way through. Chris Pullen could make millions for whoever gets the money by just standing in Chester Rd at weekends.
It requires a civil engineering solution full stop or restrictions. Through traffic needs to be made to use the By - Pass. Perhaps you and Colin Bithell should have a word with Tony Sharps CC.
