Back our campaign to re-open Boots' Corner
The decision to close Boots' Corner is causing huge disruption in Cheltenham. It is dramatically increasing journey times, increasing air pollution in residential areas and clogging up roads like Rodney Road, St George’s Street and the St Luke’s area.
It has also led to people with disabilities being unable to access the town centre, and has caused major delivery disruption to small businesses and restaurants.
So far, the trial has cost £150,000 from the highways budget and £25,000 has been spent on astroturf and ‘hot tub’ planters. If made permanent, the scheme would end up costing over £1.5 million of taxpayers’ money, taking it away from other pressing local priorities.
This is the solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. Sign our petition to re-open Boots' Corner today.
