Like everything else, planners only take car drivers into account.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14947093460236771984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125418539113091547.post-30089520086924298192014-02-26T20:01:50.591+00:002014-02-26T20:01:50.591+00:00Me too!

With current ...I must agree with the comment above. With current transport proposals being far more pro-rail, it is important that enough space is left at the Health Centre site to safeguard any future attempts to reinstate the Llangollen-Ruabon link. The trackbed is pretty much intact up to the eastern boundary of the site and would further isolate Llangollen; reducing the chance of reprieve from the grid-locked, crowded roads during the summer months. <br />I am not against having a health centre on this derelict and forlorn site, but I would appeal for space along the riverbank to be safeguarded as a potential railway corridor. Surely this is not too much to ask?
