Street lights not working, 18th January

The pathway from newbottle primary academy school heading towards Staddon Way, Newbottle has street lights but they are never turned on. The lights were erected a few years ago. This makes it very dark especially in the winter for children leaving school and for dog walkers. There is also a new estate beside this pathway which must make it unsafe for them too. Please turn these lights on!!

The new one lane traffic system held up a blue light ambulance for a few minutes a couple of days ago, 14th December

Thu, 14 Dec 2023 20:49:50 +0000
54.840959 -1.46846

Because the two lane one way road has recently been changed to a one lane road with adjacent pathway/cycle way with large kerb, the emergency vehicle could not get past a long line of queueing traffic as there was no where for traffic to go to let the ambulance through. Those few minutes may then or in the future be crucial in a life and death scenario. I use the road every day and what used to be free flowing traffic has now changed into a gridlock situation especially at peak times. I HAVE YET TO SEE ONE USER ON THE NEW PATHWAY/CYCLEWAY SINCE IT'S INCEPTION! Not even one! I think serious consideration should be given to changing the road back to a two lane system to alleviate traffic problems and allow easier access in the case of emergency vehicle use.
