CCTV monitoring of Yellow Box JunctionsYellow Box Junctions are, in general terms, a good thing. They allow traffic from minor roads access to main roads in heavy traffic. The problem that we have had in London for some years, and coming soon to the rest of the country, is where the council uses them as ‘money boxes’ to raise revenue thru CCTV. One west London junction raised £2.7m a year, and there are many others18 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Eamon O'Conchubhair

Wightman Road Street PartyResidents from adjoining roads could not only join in to celebrate and enjoy the festivities, but come together to talk and get involved in workshops to discuss traffic congestion, think about possible interventions that would improve the area, look at measures to reduce traffic overall, and understand the affects of pollution upon our health. Biannually Harringay has a Food Festival, and is a great success closing Green Lanes to traffic for the day, the Wightman Road Street Party could alternate with a focus on improving residents health and the health of the eight thousand people living on the Harringay Ladder. A street party would provide a respite for residents from traffic for the day., traffic that Wightman Road face every day throughout the year. This would also allow the 28 roads on the Harringay Ladder to come together to have workshops and challenge the amount of traffic the area is exposed to. Wightman Road takes the brunt of traffic on the Harringay Ladder, and has been designated a B road, it is no different to any other residential road, it was intended as a service road by the late Victorians, not a bypass. This event is important because of the traffic that relentlessly travel up this road every day affects the health of its residents, and reflects the situation where residents have no control over the roads they live on across London.38 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matt Cuthbert

Free/cheaper public transport for children under 18We are asking for all children under 18 years of age to be given free transport at the very least for school journeys. • Some children cannot afford bus/tram fare – walking could lead to crimes • Walking home is not an option; children live too far from their school; also winter is approaching Public transport is safer, there are many people; which also reduces crime rate on public transport3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Muhammad Pathan

Compulsory assessment for drivers every 10 yearsI'm not talking about a retest, just an assessment to find potentially dangerous drivers. The standard of driving in this country is nothing short of abysmal at times and it can't all be blamed on new and inexperienced drivers, they are not taught to drive as bad as some of the people that are on the road at the moment.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ian Grice

Reintroduce Buses Along Gledhow Valley RoadI have Parkinson's disease. I have had my driving licence revoked. I am reliant on favours to get anywhere because the valley sides are too steep for me. I am not the only person in this position. I'd be happy to take public transport if it were public. What use is a bus pass without a bus?12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ron Strong

Zero Tolerance on Drink Driving Legislation in the United KingdomThere is no need for the risk! If you're going to drink, have somebody else drive. In 2013, 260 people were killed and 1,100 were seriously injured as a result of drink driving. More than 70,000 people every year are caught drink driving. If you fail a roadside breath test and are found guilty of drink driving, you may get: six months in prison, an unlimited fine, a driving ban for at least 12 months, a criminal record. Effects of alcohol on driving: Any amount of alcohol affects your judgement and your ability to drive safely. You may not notice the effects but even a small amount of alcohol can: reduce your co-ordination, slow down your reactions, affect your vision, affect how you judge speed and distance, make you drowsy. Alcohol can also make you more likely to take risks, which can create dangerous situations for you and other people. How long do the effects last? Alcohol takes time to leave your body. For example: if you drink at lunchtime, you may be unfit to drive in the evening, if you drink in the evening, you may be unfit to drive the next morning.35 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tom Price

Helmets for all cyclistsMy son recently fell off his bike on the way to school. He fractured his scaphoid, was covered in grazes and bruises but he also banged his head on the kerb. Thankfully he was lucky and only got a lump, a graze and bruises but it couldn't been so much worse. He was told off by numerous healthcare workers because he wasn't wearing a helmet and his reply was, "I only have go to a short distance". The truth is its not cool to wear a helmet when you're a sixteen your old boy because it might mess up your hair! If it was made law, it wouldn't matter about looking cool because everyone would look the same. Jake was lucky but it could've been a different story and he could've suffered massive head injuries.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Victoria Kemp

Wheelchair Users V Pushchairs & Buggies on busesBeing passengers in wheelchairs should not be made to wait at bus stops sometimes for over an hour to wait for the next available bus. Also in 2004 a disability law was brought into the country by the government at that time to help the disabled.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jeff Coombs

Stop Bristol Airport charging for passenger Drop-OffBy charging for this, Bristol Airport gives the impression that they are trying to squeeze their customers for every last penny. Particularly for those making frequent visits to the airport, why should they be forced to pay for a simple drop off? What exactly is the service that Bristol Airport is charging for? The concept of airport drop off is merely a means of delivering the airport's customers to the point of business. The knock on effect is that the police at the airport waste time policing the airport roadways where people elect to drop off as an alternative to paying the fee.50 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jason Bone
