Representation ID: 16197

Received: 16/03/2023

Respondent: Cllr Victoria Harvey

Representation Summary:

para 7.3.1 I really support the need for seats along streets. it is so important. There should be clusters of seats so that people can sit and talk to each other and look directly at each other, ie more than one bench in a place.
There should also be space for children to play along streets on their way to school. So areas where the pavement is much wider with seats, something to climb on for children, trees, logs, something natural, shrubs etc so that walks are interesting experiences.
