The council finally backed down and scrapped the double yellow lines. Those bureaucrats at the Highways Office thought they could steamroll over us but they were dead wrong. Stay sharp because we will be watching them like hawks if they try this garbage again.
We the undersigned oppose the implementation of double yellow lines between Winsford High Street Community School and number 204 High Street.
The official consultation period for the DYL has now started. Send your letters to: REF: fro 792 Localities Directorate Winsford Area High ways Office Phoenix House Clough Road Winsford Cheshire cw7 4bd
We just hit 250 signatures and the council cannot keep ignoring this wall of public opposition. These officials at the Highways Office need to know that we are not going to be bullied into silence by their absurd double yellow lines.

Putting double yellow lines will NOT ease the traffic congestion problem of the high street, it's the parents of children attending high street school that still and will always park on the yellow lines already in place and not the allocated safe car parks.

Foodcraft is, and always has been the best chippy in Winsford. Double yellow lines will destroy this much-loved business, and for nothing. High Street residents and parents on the school run will no doubt also be affected by this decision, and I firmly believe this is unacceptable.

another waste of tax payers money. try focusing on bettering the town instead of wasting money on ridiculous unnecessary road changes at the old civic centre and drawing lines where they've never been needed in decades.

Winsford needs to promote local business and this is one of the best chippies in the town. Being able to park outside is such an asset to this business and to me, a Winsford resident, after working late. So NO double yellow lines, please!

Nonsense. I drive along there 3 or 4 times a week and I manage to pass the parked cars with no difficulty. Surely it is more hazaedous to allow cars to park on single carriageway roads? Try earning my council Tax by doing something useful for a change!

Well...if you want to kill off what is left of our historic wonderful old towns,cities and age old family run businesses, this is the way to do it. It makes me so angry to think that such uncaring and disrespectful people are in charge of our councils. Shame on you.

There is only congestion there when the school opens and closes. Yellow lines wont stop it BUT it might destroy this business. Please use some common sense not a beaurocratic approach
