Bring Hailsham’s roads back to a their former glory

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

“My aim is to get Hailsham streets and roads back to their former glory with the help and support of the residents of the town. I really believe that this is easily fulfillable. I hope, the end result for Hailsham will be a happy and safe place to live as far as the community and roads go.
I am wanting to start a petition because the roads in and around hailsham are a disgrace!. myself and more than 50% of residents of the town are no where near happy with our town

I ride a motorcycle myself and this town is no way safe for me anymore let alone all the other road users
