Tesco - Recycling Centre- Crewe

Tesco get a lot of bad press- but here in Crewe they have done themselves proud in Crewe , with a brand new recyling centre- it looks fantastic and in a very prominant spot at the front of the supermarkets site so now there are no excuses not to take your rubbish with you back in the car and get rid of it.

Tesco are very good at what they do so I am sure this recycling centre will work very well- so put on your sandles, stop hugging those trees and get down to Tesco.

Any thoughts?

Eco town at wardle??

It hit the news this week with a bang- i posted last week about the possibility, then it hit the news big time.

The government is quoted as suggusted that we need 3 million new homes by 2020, but where are we going to put them

Prescot was a champion of brownfield developments, and largely very succesful, but we still dont have enough devlopments on the go to satisfy the demand.

There are 1.6 million people that are on the council house waiting list across the uk at the moment , and this figure is sure to increase and we dont build any more council houses any more for the needy.

The only way forward is to seek some sensitive green field sites such as Wardle , which is partially brownfield.

It brought out the NIMBYs on tv

What do you think?

Car parking Charges in Crewe

In last weeks chronicle Cllr Hogben is making a stance over car parking charges in Crewe.

I am in favour of car parking charges and any hike in car parking charges, as this is the only way available at the moment to deter cars causing congestion in Crewe.

What is the alternative Cllr? Some issues just should be political , cllrs should use common sense rather than political point scoring to make judgements.

We should also be charging on the motorways but thats another story.

Congestion Charge in Crewe?

Red Ken is introducing further taxes on Gas-guzzling vehicles such as 4x4 'Chelsea tractors' will have to pay a daily charge of £25 to enter London's congestion charge zone from October this year, Ken Livingstone has announced

The existing congestion charge has been an enormous success in london and plans are being introduced to have a charge in Manchester and Durham ?

I am in full agreement with the charge and hope that soon it will be introduced across the whole country for towns and city centres.
