Remploy development at Rhosddu

[johnhoppy]

I am not against the development of the Remploy factory as it does not affect me, but I am puzzled by the conclusion of the Planning Authorities that the erection of 47 dwellings will not increase traffic in the area. The traffic system in this part of town is under considerable pressure already, and this development can not possible improve matters.

I must agree with JohnHoppy. The traffic from Rhosddu Road through to Plas Goch is mental. How can they say there is a decrease in numbers when you have a main arterial road through to the Retail Centre. Would not be my choice to live sandwiched between the railway line and the main road.

They could always build another supermarket there…….Tesco Express, maybe….

I was waiting for ages yesterday at a stop sign whilst cones were being put along the Stansty Road. Vehicles were backed up from the nursery on the left back to the bridge & vehicles were turning round by Remploy & going back from where they came. How can they possible say that traffic will not increase is beyond me. Where else can it go unless an alternative route is provided. A footbridge might be a good idea though.

I asked the owner of the tyre bay on Railway road why he didn’t build an extended roof to his business. Talking four poles and corrugated roof here. He told me all planning is turned down in this area due to road traffic volumes. I bet he is fuming!!

Perhaps the planners are hoping that if the traffic congestion is ever more dire that they will be able to do a one way system without argument from the public.

I’s quite farcical after all the discussion on the problems of Stansty Bridge and then they approve for building right next to it… we can wish for a clause for the developer to remove the existing bridge and install one really fit for purpose with increased traffic demands. … yes I’m laughing too!
