Thank you to the thirty-odd people who came to our consultation meeting about traffic in the schools hill area on Tuesday evening. I felt it was a useful meeting: I think everyone had their say and a lot of issues were raised.
The issues mentioned include
- Long queues on Schools Hill for traffic turning onto Cheadle Road at the start and end of school.
- Heavy traffic and parking problems with children being taken to Ladybarn School.
- Speeding on Cheadle Road, Wilmslow Road, Schools Hill and Daylesford Road
- Poor visibility turning from Daylesford Road onto Schools Hill
- Water pooling at the bottom of Schools Hill
- A variety of issues relating to the heavy traffic and the Kingsway junction issues.
Sorry if I’ve missed anything – the list is from memory. Special thanks to Steve Fox from the Council for ably assisting (Steve not only came along for the evening, he also did all the leaflets I delivered and booked the room).

If you succeed in getting something done about the junction of Schools Hill and Cheadle/Wilmslow Road, then you will have had great success and are to be admired.
