On Street parking charges!

If they are also to carry out bus lane enforcement, are they going to start making buses use them? The one outside the Peace Ranch is never ever used by buses as it puts the bus in the wrong lane at the traffic lights.

 

As soon as the bus pulls away from the bus stop it swings out of the bus lane and into the "normal" traffic lane. Queues regularly back up past the school even when cars use the bus lane in a morning and on the odd occasion that traffic plod have decided to ticket cars for using it, the queue stretched right back past Gullivers world!

 

Maybe Cllr Dirrirrrrr should also look at sorting issues like this first before condemning the motorists to yet more fines

 

Work starts a week on Monday....

•    Renewal of the traffic signal equipment and underground ducting;

Blimey traffic's going to be chaos around there with all that going on.  How many of the lanes approaching the Sankey Green (Pink Eye) roundabout will be out of action while the works are in progress etc and how long will that bit take ?

Maybe they are ok though and it was just a disgruntled employee as they categorically denied any suggestion that any of their wardens etc were set targets or received incentives linked to the number of Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) that were issued.  Phew that's ok then .... :)

It's no surprise to learn that a private business is looking to maximise its profits. In fact they wouldn't be much of a commercial organisation if they didn't.

 

The same can't be said of the council who not only shouldn't be using parking as an income stream but who should be working in the best interests of the people of Warrington and its businesses and aren't. 

 

What we now have is an organisation that has lost its purpose. Its primary aim now is to look after itself.

Good old Dirir

 

as progressive as ever full of new ideas and totally dedicated to keeping her income even though she is totally useless.

 

No forward looking ideas  just the same old liebor rot  charge everyone to cover up the inept management of warrington parking fiascos that occur every year.h

Steady on, there's method in the madness, those MBE's don't award themselves you know!
