Mecky   10 #13 Posted March 11, 2014 Not seen it, would this be access to the parkway or prince of wales road? Is the area behind parkway ASDA also part of Bowden Wood? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Daven   10 #14 Posted March 11, 2014 Not when they are closing 2 stations to open 1 new one, Darnall and Mansfield Road stations will close under the proposals.  One modern state-of-the-art station has got to be better than 2 old fashioned ones that aren't fit for purpose surely ?

Resident   1,193 #18 Posted March 11, 2014 Yep, that's the place  Then there's no issue as far as I'm concerned. Turning an eyesore into something useful/life-saving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

vincentb   10 #22 Posted March 11, 2014 It all depends on the location. In this case if its on scrub land and doesn't take any of the woodland by the Parkway I don't think its a problem.  I disagree - if you planted a few saplings and left it alone, it would only take a few years for that scrub land to become treed and merge with the existing woods. And in any case, green belt isn't supposed to be just for woodland; scrubby heathland is also valuable green space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

So you have a full break down of the running costs of each station do you to compare against the cost of the new build and the fact that you have reduced the fire cover and response times in two stations firegrounds . I'll move with the times when I'm convinced that I'm receiving the best possible service for the taxes I pay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
