CHRIS PRIEST FOR ST JULIAN'S WARD

In St Julian’s Plaid Cymru is proud to have Chris Priest representing the people of his local community.

If elected Chris promises to campaign to:

•     Ensure no green spaces and leisure facilities are taken away

•    Build a footbridge with cycle access from the Glebelands to Shaftesbury Park and to the City Centre

•       Improve traffic conditions around Glan Usk School

Any proposed development on the long vacant Durham Road School site should include a full and genuinely public consultation, rather than simply paying lip service to resident’s genuine concern

Chris Priest, Plaid Cymru's candidate in St Julian's.

The Glebelands and other green spaces should be secured for leisure and there should be no further development.

A footbridge with cycle track between the Glebelands and Shaftesbury Park will make it easier to get to town, will link with the National Cycle Network and will also provide easier access to Sainsbury’s in Crindau and to the City Centre.

The City Council did not feel the need to inform residents of the significant changes made to the City Bus Service. Our bus services have been reduced to a minimum with reductions in the evening and Sunday services which have been hit the hardest. The City Council has failed to campaign for the security of our bus services.

          

Further traffic calming measures should be installed in  the Durham Road area both to slow down vehicles and to help prevent vehicles going the wrong way up the one-way system and the on-going problems of the school run.

RHYS AB ELIS FOR STOW HILL

What happens in Stow Hill interests me, particularly, issues affecting the quality of life for all of us. Being active in politics motivates me to take up issues ranging from street litter, to campaigning for restoration of the Royal Mail’s postbox removed when Bridge Street Railway Bridge was rebuilt (an ongoing project). Keeping our parks safe for all who use them (including the removal of drug abuse detritus) is important. A wholesome living environment is good for all of our collective self-esteem.

Rhys Ab Elis, Plaid Cymru - The Party of Wales's candidate for Stow Hill War

If elected I will campaign to extend the City Centre CCTV system, installing extra cameras in places known for anti-social and criminal activity, in places not presently covered. I would press to make our one-way streets, truly and effectively one-way and for properly road-marked pedestrian crossings, where they are needed. All this means listening to what our council tax payers are telling us.

I am a retired civil servant, aged 70, a resident of Stow Hill ward for over 27 years. Before retirement I was 34 years in the civil service, predominantly in middle management, the last 7 years in the Department of the Environment, producing housing statistics for government publications. For most of my career I was an active trades unionist, latterly as Branch secretary, taking up personal cases for union members.
