Earlier today, Mak (Chapel Pharmacy owner) and I presented the โBin the Bundsโ petition to the council.
The petition was presented on the grounds of appearance, safety, congestion, anti-social behaviour and environmental impacts.
We asked the Council to consider and agree to three things:
1) Remove the bunds
2) Provide Additional Parking Spaces
3) Provide Bicycle Racks and Storage/shelter outside the Chapel Lane shops
Sadly, the council does not respond to presentations/deputations on the day, however we hope that our efforts today will start a conversation in Hampshire County Council and persuade them to take action.
I will continue with this campaign and will continue to fight for their removal, in the hope that a safer, more attractive solution that provides much needed parking spaces can be installed.
We can do this
