It is very important that as many people as possible fill in the B&NES PCQ (Public Consultation) consultation form. The council will go on pure numbers, so have other members of your household fill it in separately. It is especially important that everyone within the Trial Area fills in the consultation form. It is also very important that visitors to the Trial Area complete the consultation form. If you know visitors, do urge them to complete the consultation form.

 

Responses from residents of roads around the Trial Area will also have an impact. Note that it focuses on whether Winifred's Lane has been improved for walking & cycling; what we need to make especially clear is how it has impacted surrounding roads and their residents.

​

Everyone else in Bath should also be completing consultation form.
