Lobbying for stuff

Under the heading "Traffic and Transport" the parish plan survey asked respondents to support or oppose various potential actions. The top five most supported actions were:-


Support Oppose Don't care
Encourage owners/Highways Authority to cut back hedges 72% 11% 17%
Lobby Hampshire County Council to remove B3004 from lorry route 72% 13% 15%
Lobby Hampshire County Council to restrict use of country lanes for diversions 68% 16% 15%
Lobby Hampshire County Council to improve maintenance of road ditches and drainage 68% 11% 21%
Lobby Hampshire County Council to implement speed restrictions in lanes 65% 24% 11%

Looks like we mostly want Hampshire County Council to do stuff for us.
