WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE HAWTHORN ROAD?


As part of my campaign to Save our Shops I have highlighted problems faced by traders and shoppers alike when it comes to the Hawthorn Road shopping Centre.
One of the constant complaints I get is how the current Council have let it fall into neglect over the last few years.This is particularly annoying when you remember the tidy up it had about 5 years ago, when new railing signs, and pavements were introduced as part of a improvement plan.
Now walking down hawthorn Road you see broken bollards. damaged pavement and safety railings. All these are being left longer and longer before they are repaired if at all. In these tough times shopping areas need to look attractive to potential traders who may want to rent shops. The Council needs to take action now.
