I understand Residents Opposing Parking Enforcement (ROPE) have suggested that if we give the traffic department at county hall enough rope they will hang these unpopular parking proposals.

We do need to come together as a community to activate everyone.

Although most people in the town are now in 'the know', 'you can take a horse to water...' etc. So, please if you haven't already done so, send an email to http://www.devon.gov.uk/traffic-orders">www.devon.gov.uk/traffic-orders now.

The more complaints they receive the better chance we have of thwarting their unpopular plans.

As long as there are cars on the road, Dartmouth will have a parking problem.

Would Devon County Council kindly stop coming up with these ill-considered parking proposals until such time they are willing to fund an extra car park somewhere in the town.
