As Kirk Lane is so narrow, parked vehicles force drivers onto the wrong side of the road close to the junction with Halifax Road. This creates a potential hazard for vehicles turning into/out of Kirk Lane. In addition, vehicles on the wrong side of the road present an increased risk to pedestrians.
It is proposed, therefore, to introduce double-yellow lines on Kirk Lane between Lane Ends Green and Halifax Road (see plan).</description><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jun 2009 11:59:46 +0100</pubDate><guid>http://www.calderdale.gov.uk:80/council/consultations/engage/view.jsp?id=7430</guid></item><item><title>Public Library User Survey (PLUS) 2007</title><link>http://www.calderdale.gov.uk:80/council/consultations/engage/view.jsp?id=6977</link><description>The primary aim of the survey is to gather opinions about our existing services and how they could be improved.
