Fairfax Avenue-Bricknell Avenue junction

John Fareham and John Abbott confirm that there are no current plans to install a bus shelter at the junction of Fairfax Avenue and Bricknell Avenue. As soon as we received representations from local residents at one of our surgeries, we made enquiries of the officers if a bus shelter was the intended outcome of the excavations being made at the bus stop, and if so, why no one had taken the elementary step of letting us know that this was to happen. Happily, in the light of concerns raised by residents regarding the possibility of crime and disorder resulting from young people congregating at this bus stop and egging each other on, we are able to assure residents that the real purpose of this part of the pavement being dug up is to provide for the same kind of real-time electronic display as is currently in use at the bus stop at Rainhill Road.
