1. HILTON ROAD
I've received a number of complaints concerning large vehicles using this road as a short cut to Gurnard Pines. This has got worse since Southern Vectis has began taking large coaches to ferry children to Gurnard School. Residents are concerned that Utility Supplies do not lie that far from the surface of this private unadopted road and the larger vehicles are causing concern for residents. I have emailed concerns to the Head Of Highways to seek alternatives, and report back on this when a solution is found...
2. CHURCH ROAD
Church Road Residents have also been in touch, as Southern Vectis are also using Church Road, en-route from Gurnard School. For many years residents have complained about this, and I am sure that once the 6'6'' went in a few years ago they were overjoyed by the prospect of no longer ushering vehicles away from parked vehicles and pavements... I have reported the school bus to Highways and remain ever hopeful that further incidents won't arise again.
3. SHORE ROAD
At Gurnard Parish Council's meeting this month I was roasted over inconsiderate parking, mud on the road and damage caused to grass verges and bollards allegedly by conractors working at developments in Shore Road. The contractor has received a warning, and I remain ever hopeful the road (and vehicles leaving the sites- Esp. Solent Lawns), will be kept clear of mud and vehicles will be washed down before leaving the site.
4. MARSH ROAD
A new width restriction has been recommended for Marsh Road, this will restrict Heavy Goods thru'-vehicles using Rew Street and Marsh Road. All heavy vehicles will therefore be encouraged to access Gurnard via Cockleton Lane, Lower Church Road, Solent View Road, Worsley Road and Tuttons Hill. This traffic order has been proposed for several years and was recommended by The Parish council, the Police and Highways so I am more than happy to see this come to fruition.
