SimonParticipantI can’t find Just50 on the Rotary, Tesco etc websites
SimonParticipantOh go on then….
I’m suspicious (without checking at this time of night) that this is a scam

SimonParticipantThere’s no excuse for anyone to start dumping their rubbish in Car parks though is there?

SimonParticipantAnimal Mother
It’s only the HQ that is moving, the station is staying in essentially the same location (the Library 2 minutes walk away).
The station in Blacon is just that, a station, not an HQ.
You know what I mean. Chester’s Police H.Q has been moved to Blacon. Wrexham’s Police H.Q is moving to Llay.
Joe Public is wondering why Wrexham Police H.Q is moving away from some of the most deprived wards in Europe. An area which suffers inner-city crime etc
It’s almost as if the Police have given up on Queens Park and Wrexham town centre? Hightown? Rhosddu etc?Why move from such an ideal venue so close to the action?

SimonParticipantBlacon Parade, the equivalent to Prince Charles Road, in recent times has undergone a massive regeneration. Blacon Parade is now a cheerful, well-lit place with thriving businesses and shops. Until Prince Charles Road is subject to the same regeneration, you can’t really envisage any change to the anti-social behaviour etc there. The trade is there with the Co-Op, takeaways etc. The place just needs regenerating. The Red Dragon looks awful. It’s like a statement of the Council’s neglect to the area.

SimonParticipantThe pure size and physical geography of Queens Park makes for difficult policing.
It’s an expanding estate as well with new homes being built on the outskirts etc. In 2001 the Census declared it had a population of 11,882 in 5,019 household. I’d make a guess that the estate now has a population exceeding 15,000.
So, with something like only 4 or 5 PCSO’s, and little more actual PC’s assigned to the area, how can anyone expect a reassuring police presence?
Moving the Police H.Q away from the fringes of the estate out of town is baffling. Whilst across the border in Chester they moved their H.Q to Blacon which has a slightly larger population than Queens Park but with the same problems? Make your own mind up what you think is the most pragmatic move by either force?October 7, 2018 at 1:57 am in reply to: 'We don't feel safe in Wrexham in the daylight' shock survey finds #156929
SimonParticipant‘We don’t feel safe in Wrexham in the daylight’ shock survey finds
What was the survey results for night-time?
SimonParticipantAnd.
.move the services out of town for the good the residents of the immediate area. Particularly Rhosddu who have had a lot to endure the last few years. Terrible.
Previously on the issues of drugs etc, Inspector Paul Wycherley said the job in Rhosddu had been “challenging”. As if the Police had won?
It’s got worse.
Not forgetting those trying to earn a living either? The business rates are high enough? There’s no reduction for opening your shutters everyday to find rubbish on your doorstep, people slumped across your doorway etc etc?
I say move the alcohol and drug rehabilitation ‘drop in centre homes’ to the edge of the Industrial Estate. Where there’s a Spartan bus route, 5-miles away from the nearest railway station etc An extension to HMP Berwyn?October 6, 2018 at 1:08 am in reply to: "Give your feedback on plans to place average speed cameras on Wrexham bypass" #156911
SimonParticipantLikewise, as other thread participants have pointed out, the 50 zone is causing problems on slip roads, particularly during ‘rush hour’. Rather exasperating when other are flying past in the ‘fast lane’ oblivious to the speed signs? Mr White Van Man, haulage vehicles etc
It’s causing more trouble than before.
SimonParticipantThe problem is Council Watcher that many of these individuals will not engage with the services of any description (re data provided by Cllr Hugh John Jones)
zinger All the services are in place with CAIS, The Wallich etc. The problem being individuals not engaging with the services
MP1953 Wrexham is bound to be an attraction for (Day trippers). After all, you only have to step off a bus at Wrexham Bus Station and you’re in the ‘Golden Triangle’. Where drugs are easily available. It’s easy to purchase drugs, and easy to blend in with a group and make limited policing almost impossible.
I personally doubt they’ll solve the ‘Golden Triangle’ problem as things stand. It might sound radical but, I would move the Wallich venues, the Elms etc out of town. For the sake of Wrexham’s town centre commerce and its citizens. Especially the OAP’s who’ve abandoned a bus trip to Wrexham.
Any suggestions where to move them? But one thing for sure, their present locations are destroying the town.
