JIM MCWILLIAMS - YOUR LABOUR CANDIDATE
It is a privilege
to offer myself as the Labour candidate to represent the Pelaw and Heworth
Ward.
Having lived all
of my life in the Ward I am well aware of the needs of our local community.
Over the years I
have been an active campaigner for improvements in the ward.
I am currently concerned
about the problems of traffic congestion across the ward and, with your
support, I would work to ensure that residents receive priority by the
introduction of greater traffic calming measures in ‘hotspots’ across the
ward.
Unlike previous
years this will not be an all-postal election.
Should you require
a postal vote please refer to the information overleaf.
Should you require
assistance in getting to the polling station on election day, or would
like to display a poster, please call: Jim McWilliams on 0191 469 4560
WORKING WITH PEOPLE - SERVING THE COMMUNITY
Here we look at some
of the improvements which have been made or are being campaigned for the
benefit of Pelaw and Heworth people:
* TRANSPORT
A free bus travel
scheme is being brought in from 1 April for disabled people and those over
sixty.
Major improvements
to the Pelaw Metro Station have been undertaken.
A new gold card
is being brought in too. It costs £8 a year but enables pensioners
to travel without charge on the Metro.
* TRAFFIC CONGESTION
The Action Team
is campaigning for the introduction of the following measures
The introduction
of a residential parking scheme for residents directly affected, particularly
in the vicinity of Pelaw Metro station
Traffic calming
measures to prevent motorists using side roads off Shields Road as ‘rat-runs’
to ensure the safety of children in the area.
* ISSUES
If you would like
to identify any issues that affect you in the ward, please contact Jim
