Petition
To consider the following petitions:

a) Road Works at Shopping Centre, St Lukes Road (pdf 27kb): The new road works at Old Windsor Shopping Centre. 13 Feb 2009. Petition collected in Old Windsor and each name signed the petition that they are in total agreement that the works are unacceptable due to abortive works being installed by the RBWM. In addition the petition agree that all the works as described as follows are totally unacceptable and that the RBWM should be instructed to rectify, replace everything to a proper specification. The petition was asked to view all the sinking pavings, approx 3,000. In addition loose pavings are now a trip danger for shoppers. The petition claim that the items listed are very serious, are not frivolous, and the claim by the RBWM Chief Executive that he will not carry out rectification and replacement to each item should be overturned as this is the responsibility of RBWM. The Local Government Ombudsman was called in, but that office has confirmed that no Ombudsman visited the site at any time. In any case everything is the responsibility of the RBWM. I agree with the above and I also I agree with the list attached that everything should be corrected 100%.

AND

Bus Shelters to be erected at Bus Stops, Old Windsor (pdf 27kb): "The Petition is for the bus shelters to be erected at each bus stop in the Old Windsor. Many residents, OAP and others have a long distance to walk to the bus stops and have to stand in the weather at the bus stops, with no shelter. The following list are the Petition members in support, with phone numbers."

b) Request for Directions Restricting Development in Wraysbury (pdf 26kb): We the undersigned call on the RBWM to place an Article 4(1) and Article 5(4) directions on the land at Coppice Field and Thamesfield in Wraysbury. This will help prevent fragmentation and potential overall change in landscape.
