So, we've developed the Community Plan, but what are we now going to do to implement change?

It is planned to hold a Marchwood road safety workshop on 17th October in order to:

a) effectively engage with those of you in Marchwood who are interested in this important subject,

b) determine exactly why the chosen subjects are action priorities and add the necessary detail to those priorities,

c) develop an action plan that will move these key projects forward to implementation.

The four subjects for discussion at the workshop are:

1. How do we plan to establish an effective lorry ban in the village centre between the Dibden Roundabout and Cracknore Hard Lane?

2. Where do we need to improve footpaths and crossings within Marchwood to ensure safe passage, particularly at school pick up / drop off times?

3. Where do we need to establish safe footpaths and cycle ways between Marchwood and its surrounding areas of Hythe, Dibden, Eling and Totton and in practical terms, how and exactly where, might these be established?

4. Where do we need to control the speed of traffic in Marchwood and what action do we want to see taken to achieve that?

If you have an interest in getting involved in any of these subjects and would like to join us for this workshop, please call me on 07785 732336, or email me on alan_stevens@talk21.com to register your interest.

I look forward to meeting you on the 17th October for what I'm sure will be a lively and interesting event.

Kind regards
