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

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.

I strongly object to the yellow lines as it will not do any good at all except ruin businesses that have been there for generations

This is utterly ridiculous - this local business is thriving yet you're hell bent on taking away it's business?! Parking is not an issue here so please do not do this.

Parking is not an issue here. Traffic flows freely past. Councils seem to be hell bent on destroying anything good

Have used Foodcraft for 40 years from when I was working in the area during the town centre development,to now living in the town.It is my favourite chippy and the quality of all their produce is excellent.The excuse that traffic flow is affected by the parking is not a problem,as the majority of drivers negotiate this with due care and consideration.Don't kill a good business!

Provide extra parking then think about the yellow lines, the first change that should be made is to reduce the speed limit to 30mph
Has any real thought gone in to the consequences of putting lines down outside Foodcraft. This town has very little in it, now the powers that be, seem hell bent on disrupting the customer flow, to the best chip shop in Winsford, which WILL have a massive knock on effect, that could potentially force the business to close. How are disabled people expected to get there ?? Park on the multi storey car park, then have to trek a fair distance to get their fish supper. By the time they get back to their vehicle, their meal will be virtually cold !! Have a word, it's not rocket science. Most of the shops customers, are people who drive past, and pull in. NO TO THE LINES !!

I would like to add to the FoodCraft/Double Yellow Lines debate. John Finney's Great Grandmother, who lost her 2 eldest sons in The Great War, ran a successful business on the old High Street in Winsford. John's parents also ran a successful business on the old High Street in Winsford for many years. John in turn started his own business (FoodCraft) on the old High Street almost 50 years ago, and now his sons are involved in the business, and still employing local people. It's quite obvious to most people that if double yellow lines are painted on this section of High Street it would have severe or even fatal consequences to this family business. And for what reason? Who's going to benefit? It surely can't be for safety reasons, because the school drop off and collection parking and FoodCraft parking provide their own traffic calming. Simple research will prove that this stretch of the High Street has had far fewer traffic incidents than any other part of the High Street duel carriageway. In my view, and that of many other Winsford folk, there is a simple solution. The powers that be should climb down from their Ivory Towers and try to understand what impact their decision could have on the business, it's employees and it's customers. Remember the old saying, 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Tim Shaw, Winsford.
