27-Oct-2025: Proposed 'No Waiting' restrictions at Wadeslea

In attempt to solve the congestion issues at Wadeslea new 'No Waiting' restrictions and Restrictions 2 have been proposed by FC Transportation Services.

These are not set in stone and the CC welcomes any feedback from the local community all of which will be passed on to FC Transportation Services.

Earlier this month Carol and Grizelda did a house to house survey to discover opinions on these. They spoke to 13 out of 17 homeowners/residents in Wadeslea.

With regard to the proposed 'No Waiting' restrictions on the main road at Wadeslea the feelings were pretty evenly divided from ‘excellent idea’ to ‘absolutely not’ so it’s clear that not everyone will be happy whatever happens!

With regard to the cul de sac the house holders unanimously agree that inconsiderate parking on corners is causing the majority of any problems.

However, there does seem to be a large majority who are very much against both sides of the road having 'No Waiting' restrictions. In fact, there are only three who consider that a good idea. The rest are appalled at the thought and feel it will make parking their own vehicles a problem. Six were against any restrictions apart from corners and four were OKish with one side only. If 'No Waiting' restrictions are to be on only one side the east side, on the right as you enter the cul de sac, would be the much preferred option as, at present, most people use the west side to park.

Both the home owners in 15 and 16 mentioned that the worst of the bottle necks are nearer the main road and other house holders further up the road toward the main road wish that No Waiting Restrictions be placed opposite the concealed entrances to allow safer exiting and to avoid the mirrors being obscured.
