Parking on the pavements is not necessarily an offence unless it obstructs passage for pedestrians and wheelchair users. With our roads being so busy and narrow pavements are increasingly important.  The Police will continue to patrol the village and monitor the issue, but please be warned……if your vehicle is found causing an "Unnecessary Obstruction" you will be dealt with accordingly. Similarly the Parish Council has agreed to patrol and use a flier to highlight offenders who are parking selfishly and not thinking of others....please try to avoid the bright yellow ticket!

CHAIRMAN'S UPDATE Following our July meeting where concerns were raised by residents of Birch Grove regarding social behaviour, the Parish Council met with the authorities concerned and there has now been a positive outcome for the parties involved. New traffic warning signage is now in place at Birch Grove, bringing to the attention of motorists there are children likely to be around or crossing. After a few near misses we would ask that motorists take special care in this area, where parked cars often obscure vision and the likelihood of a child being about to cross. The Birch Grove children's play area is in the process of being re-painted by our local contractor whilst the Parish Council are considering the possibility of adding new play equipment. The Parish Council is pleased to grant funds to support the replacement of the windows in the Memorial Hall and is hopeful of helping the PCC with the annual cost of maintenance of the Church clock. As you can see we have been busy.  Please do support us by completing the questionnaire as advised earlier in this Newsletter. Andrew Johnston Chairman of Ruyton XI Towns Parish Council SHROPSHIRE COUNCIL PARKING CONSULTATION Shropshire Council want to offer an improved parking service that is hassle-free, and that makes use of the latest technology. SC want a service that offers value for money and that is consistent across the county, and wants to make it easy for everyone to understand how much it costs to park, on-street and in car parks, and how to pay. SC has some ideas about how it can achieve this by making our parking charges simpler, clearer and easier to understand – but wants to know what you think. To find out more and influence the new parking strategy find out more by going to http:// www.shropshire.gov.uk/parking-consultation. The consultation ends in October. Please note the Parish Council believes this should be responded to by individuals and is not proposing to put forward a group response on the consultation.

Paper copy newsletters are available at Cafe Eleven and on request, please contact the Clerk.
