A football pitch for juniors is a good idea but it would have to be protected from fouling by dogs and vandalism. Ths access from the new development on Weston Road (through the stone wall) encourages parking of vehicles along that stretch of road, which causes vehicles to cross into the path of oncoming traffic. This is dangerous and could well result in accidents. Speed cameras/radar will penalise law abiding drivers who inadvertently to the speed limit by 1 to 5 miles per hour, whilst not catching those who drive under the influence of drink or drugs.

Facilities for disabled people, especially if they have a mobility scooter. It is impossible to use mobility scooters in LA because it's not disabled friendly. There are not any sloping kerbs. The pavements are very narrow. There should be more shops in the village to cater for disabiled people who cannot travel alone further afield and for the people who have moved into the new housing. Clubs for women on their own or married to make new friends. Seats at bus stops in the village. Disabled parking outside the Doctors. New glasses for drivers in LA because they don't seem to be able to read the speed limits of 30mph. Christmas decorations and lights plus a christmas tree, party for the residents of LA. We live in the dark ages here. Backwell and Nailsea have Xmas lights! Street lights are awful here at night, it is very dark. Cafe in the village to meet daily for a coffee and chat. There is nothing to invite people to come to the village or to stop for if you are driving through. What shops there are are too spread out. Bank, Taxi rank, hardware store, clothes shop, stationers, we need these shops in the village.
