Better recycling facilities

Improve traffic flow through village in rush-hour. Extend Park & Ride to at least 8pm on all days. Improve traffic safety on blind bent driving down Providence Lane. Re-cycling expanded to plastics but also cardboard of all types. Turn Left sign needed going up Clarken Combe to indicate turning to Providence Lane/Long Ashton.

Backwell swimming pool not open at convienient hours for working people. All evening sessions are booked by clubs or classes. Better recycling facilities for garden rubbish. I would not mind paying for a green wheelie-bin as used in some schemes within Bristol Better electricity supply for the village.The new hosuing has put extra pressure on grid, resulting in a high frequency of power cuts in the winter period, esp at times of peak demand. Traffic lights at the end of the village nearest Bristol to enable cars to actually get out of the village at peak times.

Improved cycle facilities (e.g. lanes!) would be good, also sorting out all the potholes in the roads would make it more comfortable (there are a lot, particularly at Ashton Court end of Weston Road, and Weston Road end of Lovelinch Gardens. Please improve the recycling scheme, I keep asking for a box and never received one so have now given up, especially as we have mostly plastics, and now take it ourselves to Sainsburys. How do we get more information about Neighbourhood Watch? We didn't even know there was one operating!!

want traffic calming in glebe road/yanley lane expecially during rush hours levels of theft high, police response disgraceful Yanley has never received the Mercury or Green garden waste bags, people should be asked if they want it, many of these questions as not elderly, with young family, do not feel I can afford more council tax to pay for various improvements and hope we can have low cost improvements that do not interfere with the village atmosphere
