I and several other Councillors and Public have had NO input in this document.
Some WTC/FDC Councillors were involved as too the Whittlesey Business Forum representative.
I have read the interim report ……. Click Here
The report is poor in quality and depth, evidence and errors.
The key concerns being health, self harming, single parents – these should be prioritised, not the ‘enhancements’ of the Market Place…or making Market Street a pedestrian zone.
It does not mention peoples perception on being safe, law & order, or drug concerns amongst our young people.
History – we used to a one way system through Market Street !!!! – The authorities can not police or enforce parking concerns at present let alone in the future.
The monitoring or air quality is not as good as it could be.
The writers/consultants are swaying the questions – to the answers they are looking for.
It is an opportunity for All & Everyone to have an input – but please read the associated document first – takes around 20 minutes…..https://www.fenland.gov.uk/media/15675/Growing-Fenland—Whittlesey-Interim-Report/pdf/Whittlesey_Interim_Report_-_FINAL_VERSION.pdf
As usual it is NOT a wish list.
I have heard of some who have read the report – not being bothered to answer the questionnaire.
What it also misses is All the current ‘challenges’ our town has at present and a prime example being the Kings Dyke Crossing – No one is taking responsibility for this travesty.
