Malhamdale Initiative Quotes from Locals in the Parish Plan Survey

Quotes from Locals in the Parish Plan Survey

“Traffic has altered the nature of things, e.g. walking to school, riding horse or pony, driving (horse or pony) safely, driving animals on roads safely, etc. One wouldn’t want to put the clock back, but most people come to walk, wander and get away from rush. Isn’t that the sort of tourist we should cater for and leave those who look for more sophistication to go elsewhere?”

Quotation from a resident of Kirkby Malham.

“The character of the dale is precious and fragile. Once destroyed it will be gone forever. Therefore NO to wider roads, easier (faster) access. YES to slowing down traffic YES to park and ride scheme, YES to rebuilding walls, NO to 4 x 4 on green lanes and motorcycles on bridleways/footpaths BUT safer roads must be a priority.”.

Quotation from a resident of Scosthrop.
