Stop the neighbourhood scheme in Milkstone and Deeplish area.

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the neighbourhood trial scheme to come to an end its causing nothing but significant issues for the community and majority of people are against this and don't want this to continue.
Main issues are
Traffic congestion around whole area at times like 2pm when there used to be no traffic whatsoever.
People not abiding to one way systems.
Difficult to drive in the area as its too congested.
Having to take alternative routes which take a lot longer than following one way signs.
In cases of emergency for elderly there is alot of blockage for ambulances to get to where they need to be it will take alot longer.
This overall is not a good idea and as a community we want this to stop.
