Bus shelters in killamarsh

November 2nd, 2009 18 comments

bus-shelterThe bus shelters in killamarsh look like something out of Beirut.What happened to the councils regeneration of killamarsh people have to stand under these and get wet. A number of years ago these shelters were hailed as vandal proof in the leader news paper and would save the people of killamarsh thousands in less maintanance the only way the council have saved money is dont maintain them please comment.

UPDATE; The council have now said there is going to be 4, yes FOUR new bus shelters built so please watch this space.

UPDATE ; 27/05/2009 We have had an email from the council and they state the bus shelters have been passed for being rebuilt ,what this means we dont know so we are investigating it .They said they had not got permission from the land owners but if the shelter is allready there why do they need permission we think it is slowing down tactics so they dont have to spend the money. comments please

UPDATE ; 19/06/2009 Thank you for all your emails we are pleased to say that work has started on the bus shelters, it just goes to show a little bit of persuasion can go a long way. We would like to thank Natascha Engel for keeping us informed and sending emails to the parish council and thank Paul Harding for his part in informing us. It may not be to everybodies liking but it will certainly tidy killamarsh up and make it look a little more presentable even if they are knocked down. It is no good looking at the new flower pots on the end of Kirkcroft lane which are quite nice, thencasting a sorry eye to the bus shelter on the other side. thanks again for the emails. I will enclose an email for you to read it is from the council:

Rykneld where’s the economy

November 2nd, 2009 1 comment

ryneld-vans1rykneld-1Rykneld vans on one street five drivers empty seats surely one driver could pick another two workers up and save our council tax  instead of running five vans to the same jobs the other two vans are on the other side of the road . This picture  was sent to us from a resident of norwood please comment on the waste of your money from your council tax.

UPDATE: more rykneld vans with one driver and two spare seats the diesel alone must cost a fortune even the six man crew bus has one in it surely they could pick workers up and take less vans please comment

Regeneration of killamarsh (your having a laugh)

September 2nd, 2009 19 comments

The so called regeneration of killamarsh consists of closing the bank so people do there banking in eckington or crystal  peaks closing the wade and madins garage so residents have to use petrol to get petrol. The building of houses on the old canal so when if the canal ever comes to killamarsh it will have to be re-routed. Also the closing down of the kwiksave and the parkside looking like a disused no go area.

The regeneration does not seem to be working the walls built around the shops have still not been fixed. Comments please
