PLANS TO SOLVE CLIFTON PARKING ISSUE

Your Clifton Local News understands that  Nottingham City Council plan to try and solve major parking problems in the area. There is currently a huge parking issue with the overspill from Nottingham Trent University leading to problems on surrounding roads around Rivergreen, Fabis Drive and in Clifton Village. The City Council have ignored numerous emails [...]

TRAM WOULD HELP PUSHCHAIRS

I have followed the letters in recent editions of the Clifton Local News regarding the tram. I would like to say that the tram would be great for Clifton and the other areas. No one has mentioned the help it would give people with pushchairs, old people or disabled people. They would be able to [...]

CENTRAL AVENUE TRAFFIC

As a regular visitor to West Bridgford’s Central Avenue, it amazes me how many times drivers have total disregard for the traffic restrictions. I witness numerous occasions where people drive down there, often at high speed. As usual, it will probably need a fatality or bad accident before something is done. Maybe in some way [...]

TIME FOR RESURFACING IN RADCLIFFE-ON-TRENT

I’ve recently noticed that Bingham has just had another of it’s roads leading to the Market Place resurfaced. Burton Joyce last year and now Bingham.

ROAD RESURFACING PROBLEMS IN RADCLIFFE

It has been filled over with myriads of repair joins that have now sunk below the surface. [...]

UNTIDY STATE OF AFFAIRS ON LANGTHWAITE ROAD

I write in reference to the poor state of the trees overhanging the pavement, all the way from the Clifton part of Langthwaite Road on to Bainton Road. When it rains the puddles collect in the gutters and traffic goes roaring past and soaks you through. Some drivers strangely find this funny. Also, when the [...]

MORE JUNCTION NIGHTMARES

I was quite bemused by the letter in your last issue (Local News – November) from P. Cowell regarding the junction on Radcliffe Road and Abbey Road. Having lived on the junction at Radcliffe Road and Davies Road for over 40 years I would not advise anyone to use this junction, especially in the rush [...]
