[Green Lanes Business Association Survey]
Question 1. What do think is good about the area?
Good – it’s a nice area but does need some cleaning up
Question 2. What do you think is less good about the area?
Less good – not enough shops to buy CD DVD etc. we need to find more parking areas
Question 3. What would you like to see to improve the area?
Improve – the pay and display system to be spread into side roads. Also cut the cost for parking to help the retailers in the area.
Question 4a. Specific aspects – traffic
Question 4b. Specific aspects – parking
Supports ½ hr free parking – would spend more free time in the area
Doesn’t support Sunday parking charges – I think the council should think about charging on Sundays as this will have a knock on effect on retailers. Shop empty business suffering.
Question 4c. Specific aspects – clutter
clutter – pavements need repair specially near the railway
Question 4d. Specific aspects – look of the shops/architecture
Look of shops – could do with a lick of paint!
Question 4e. Specific aspacts – type and range of shops
type of shops –need more fashion shops. Maybe a big name will attract people to the area.
Question 4g. Specific aspects – the Triangle public space
Triangle – the toilets should be taken away. And put some seating area and small garden with some flowers
Question 4h. Specific aspects – Greenery
Planters – put some more hanging baskets on green lanes
Any other comments
Other – pavements need to be cleaned and swept and bins cleared out with jet wash especially where the pubs are.
