This is a sledgehammer to crack a nut approach. I do not believe there is an abnormal problem at the Spa roundabout. Ther is no requirement for traffic lights which would blight the aresa and be detrimental to its appearnace. I'm sure all residents of the roads mentioned above are vehmently against any proposal to divert traffic in this way. NO WAY EVER.
I have major disagreement to the development of the Spa roundabout. I have already mentioned that any perceived problem in this are only occurs at peak times - as it does in surrounding areas. Outside peak times the junction operates effectively - there is no requirement to tamper with it.
Please forget any suggest that Woodlands Road, Kilnwood Avenue and Hockley Rise should become a through road rather than quiet residential. I am vehmently against any such proposal.
It would devalue property, make some areas undesirable and lead to run-runs. No thank you ! I could go on.
