Re: The new bus station and parking areas
Well not one post left on this thread
I take it nobody cares what happens to Accrington yet you will start moaning when the one way streets and new parking restrictions come into force you all had your chance to have your say on parking and the new one way streets with the architect so don't say you where not informed :mad: |
Re: The new bus station and parking areas
Mick, how do you know that people are not interested?
I saw this post when I was on the top deck of a bus, sat in a traffic Jam on the way to Southport. Because people have not replied does not signify a lack of interest. People may have gone to see the plans on Saturday.....or they may plan to look at them during this week. I know that we will be looking......and of we had known about this earlier than Saturday, we might have looked while the architect of these plans was there. To be truthful, the main damage to the town was done way back.....and no council has had any interest in doing much about it. The new bus station(for many) is in the wrong place, but it was rubber stamped, with not a hope in hell of changing it......and you know full well how much discussion it provoked on here. This development is at a late stage and the fact that the plans were/ are up to be viewed means nothing......it wouldn't make one iota of difference if every resident of the town went down there a spit a flea into the architects ear.....it would STILL all go ahead as those in power want it to, because that is how it is. We aren't asked because they are interested in our views, it is just so that they can say ' we asked the residents for their views'. |

Exactamundo Margaret.
Whatever is said will not make a jot of difference. I was down near B&M last week & read a notice on the building thats being modified between B&M & the Halifax, I did wonder why the signs were talking about a new bus station there lol. Now I know where it is. |
Re: The new bus station and parking areas
the council did not listen or care what the people of accrington thought about the new bus station from day one
pockets have been lined and winks exchanged theres no way in hell they will listen to what the people say or want this is LCC were talking about here a council 25 miles away that couldnt give a stuff what anything outside of preston needs or thinks this bus station was way too big of a decision to be decided by an out of town authority it should have been offered not forced upon us with an option to decline |
Re: The new bus station and parking areas
Thirty years ago it was proposed that the outside market should be on Boadway and that the bus station was fine where it was, although it required a bit of redesigning, Even back then, Councillors couldn't run a party in brewery.

Re: The new bus station and parking areas
So, where is it? at the bottom of Kings Street?

Re: The new bus station and parking areas
I thought they were leaving it were it was near the outside market.

Re: The new bus station and parking areas
So does anyone know what it is that they are doing a few doors up from B&M ?
They seem to have units 43-46 on Union street for the bus station. P.S. http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/council...s-station.aspx Some pics: https://www.flickr.com/photos/lancas...7653940557498/ A detailed plan = http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/media/7...ailed-Plan.pdf |
Re: The new bus station and parking areas
This is going to be the walk way that will allow passengers to access the Arndale.

Re: The new bus station and parking areas
Yes, but the town planners want us all to see it as a positive development.
Something that will bring people into the town......it doesn't do it for me. I think it will take more out than it brings in.....and I think it will be the death of businesses that are at the Peel St side of the town....the market hall and the market look doomed. |
Re: The new bus station and parking areas
Absolutely agree Margaret, the town planners must think we're all a little stupid & will believe what they tell us
