Wendover Neighbourhood Plan April 2019

Consultation

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the consultation which closed on 21 March. This date fell after Wendover News went to press so it has not been possible to publish an analysis in this edition of Wendover News.

Examples of comments on Post-it notes collected at the Drop-In Exhibition:

Ashbrook Playing Field – zebra crossing needed across Aylesbury Road for school children and those going to the park. Traffic is too fast at all times of day.

Halton Wood Road – linked up cycle routes both on and off roads are needed, linking important sites within Wendover. Existing routes to other towns are now dangerous.

McIndoe Drive – Parking at Princess Mary Gate is terrible. Developers must provide parking spaces that are useful.

Warneford Avenue – The green space in Warneford Avenue is used as a park for children and a public walk-through. This space should be protected as the residents have cut/cleaned this area for 23+ years.

Wharf Road – The speed limit in Manor Road and Wharf Road is 30mph. it should be 20mph. During the busiest periods traffic is its own regulator but during the majority of the day – when children are just as likely to be out and about – vehicles speed along there.

Thank you, too, to all the people who wrote supportive and informative comments by email.

A Consultation Statement will now be prepared to send to Wendover Parish Council in May, the next step in the path towards the Final Plan which will later be put to a local referendum.
