Respondent: Hawkwell Parish Council

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Both proposals for pedestrianisation (Figs 11 &12) or modest improvements should be resisted. They will have a detrimental impact on trade. Widening the pavements around the square will be of no benefit and would impact on the Market layout. Traffic issues could be resolved by reversing the traffic flow as it used to be with cars entering at the bottom of square and exiting at the top by the Spar building.
