ALT Graphic titled "Our confidence training sessions mean everyone can choose active travel". A busy terraced street has pavement-parked cars down both sides. A long cane user is trying to get down the left pavement. A driver in a pavement-parked SUV on double yellow lines is shouting "I need to park here! You can squeeze through or go on the road!" A powerchair user is driving down the road, while an adult and child on a side-by-side tandem are cycling towards us. A driver coming up the road is shouting "Get off the road! You'll get your kid killed!" A child on a small bike is riding down the right hand pavement, while a driver in a pavement-parked van shouts "Get off the pavement! You're a danger to pedestrians!"
ALT Applications from residents and Street Friends applying to hold a street party in support of the Big Lunch 2024 on 1 or 2 June are again being processed free of charge. Applicants for street parties are being encouraged to apply in good time, to allow for the application to be processed and potential road closure orders to be issued. The closing date for applications is 4 March 2024. Whilst party organisers always need the council’s permission to hold an event on the road or pavement, fees only normally apply if a road needs to be closed. The confirmation of road closure fees being waived in support the Big Lunch follow the pattern in previous years and also support the council’s Street Friends initiative.
