[Green Lanes Business Association survey]
Question 1. What do think is good about the area?
we have a wide range of shops; I have worked in this area over ten years. I can do all my shopping at lunch times.
Question 2. What do you think is less good about the area?
we should have free parking for the people who work in this area. We can have a pass to display on our windscreen. It is very hard to find a space that is near.
Question 3. What would you like to see to improve the area?
I think that people who work in this area should be given free parking slots and not have to pay and display. Maybe more police surveillance in the area especially evenings
Question 4a. Specific aspects – traffic
cars sometimes drive too fast on Aldermans Hill. Maybe we can have a speed light flashing 30mph only.
Hedge Lane Traffic – we need more Pelican crossings there or zebra crossings
Question 4b. Specific aspects – parking
½ hr free parking in town centre, or even 1hr or 2 hrs
This would encourage me to use the town centre more because we can do all our shopping here and and eat out
No Sunday parking charges
Question 4c. Specific aspects – clutter
More dustbins around the area, more road sweepers around the park the leaves can be slippery and dangerous.
Question 4d. Specific aspects – look of the shops/architecture
money given to paint the area. Shops run down. Houses
Question 4e. Specific aspacts – type and range of shops
H&M, New Look, Top Shop
Question 4f. Specific aspects – amount and use of pavement space
fix faulty pavements quicker
Question 4g. Specific aspects – the Triangle public space
maybe a fountain, more benches – seating area places to eat sandwiches outside
Question 4h. Specific aspects – Greenery
more plants trees flowers brighten the place up
Any other comments
pavements should be maintained regularly outside café, vet shop Aldermans hill.
