What's New Lane got that Fielding Lane or anywhere else in Ossy has'nt got!

A big flashing sign To tell drivers it's a 30 zone and to be very careful driving up New Lane. We could do with things like that in a lot of other roads not just New Lane in Ossy... But of course, I forgot.. P.B. Lives in New Lane doesn't he? And he takes care of his own in... New Lane.. And there is another sign in New Lane a very nice sign telling us to drive carefully etc. Come on P.B. Look after everyone else instead of yourself. A lot of other roads are far more dangerous than NEW LANE!

Don't forget the speed cameras.

And New Lane isn't even in his ward!!!!!

The road surface isn't too bad either. Just before the election he put in chits to have the pot holes on a number of streets filled in (Haworth St being the main one that I've noticed). Two weeks before the elections a little man came around and drew white lines around all the pot holes - obviously to look like they were doing something. Six weeks later and they still haven't been filled in!!!!!!!

I agree but alot of accidents have happened at the top of New Lane on the bend turning onto Haslingdon Old Rd hence the drive carefully sign

Thought that would have been removed before now

They ( Lancashire County Council ) have added some of those signs on the approach to the Brittania crossroads as well. they have also changed the speed limit around that area in readiness for the new roundabout we are getting up there.

Personally I think the flashing 30 sign's are rubbish. I think the ones that actually tell you what speed you are doing makes you realise how fast you are doing and how easy it would be to get caught by the mobile speed cameras

Actually, it's more likely to be people who are complaining od speeding drivers. If you complain you too could win a super flashy 30 mph sign to light up your street. trouble is people drive past it at over 30 just to see it flash.

Don't be an idiot all your life John. HBC had the contract for minor works and employed staff and made the decisions. Because they were doing a crap job (like not filling holes yet making a healthy profit from the contract) County took it off them. Quite right.
