Dear Editor, I “_am opposed _to “any Proposed parking restrictions in the Kibworth shopping “centre, without adequate car parks. 工 .would ask our councillors to vigorous1y oppose yellow 1ines until this condition i met. Having followed this debate 《for over 14 years,I am very perturbed by the _current,unseemly rush smear unsight1y yellow streaks “_over “our village shopping centre without adequate debate.、 I anm therefore delighted ta an Open _meeting _has _been _arrangedi by Beauchanp Parish Council for I “understand the _police, District and Parish representat iVes Will “be “_present ta answer apiy questions.、 I personally woald 1ike to know the precise natare of the Police「s “perceived safety problems and also, 访 related to,emergency vehicles _and free acecessy Why Fleckney Road “is _nat liable to parking restrictions 《002 A major cause of bloeckage on High Street and Fleckney Road is “the excessive nunber of heavy vehicles . New Road, High Street and Fleckney Road form a short cut between the A47 (via Three Gates and the Carlton Road) ,A6 and Fleckney and then on to the A50. Fleckney has restricted lorries fromn _going “through their shopping centre.。 Why should Kibworth have to bear “the _brunt _of this activity which exacerbates an already high level of traffic2? Has anyone recentl1y carried out a survey of the through heavy traffic on weekdays? Certain1y some lorries stop in Kibworth to deltiver or pick up _goods; “_but the vast “majority runble through without stopping . I would advocate prohibiting access to all through goods traffic over 2 tons.、 This would then alleviate the major cause of the traffic hazard and potentially elininate “the need 《or any parking _restrictions this year. The_heavier traffic would soon find an alternative route: The shopkeepers have eloquent1y argued that parking restrictions wi11 cause a reduction in both casual and regular custom; this will prompt many of “them _to “_cease trading . We citizens of Kibworth- should support them and so help _the future of our ˇ vYillage shops . Kevin Felthanm PUBLIC WEETING & public meeting has been arranged to enable the police and Leicestershire County “_Council to explain the situation “_and _answer ,questions regarding the _proposed waiting restrictions . The neeting will be held at 7.30pm on _Tuesday 9 July-1991, at Kibworth Community Centre,Smeeton Road
