OK I'll start you off:
It takes ages getting around Town now in a car, and pedestrians run a traffic gauntlet. In the long term it still remains unsafe to me to have all traffic for Durlston, the Pier and Hospital to be dependant on Institute Road. Some incident could grid lock the Town. If just half of the traffic had an alternative route then walking in the Town centre would be much more pleasant. Bring on the café culture DCC. Have some courage to initiate this STC.
Someone please pursue the seafront closure too. I'm sure the wishes of disabled people etc can be accommodated. Perhaps a half way house would be in order with people discouraged from using Shore Road with a 10 mile an hour speed limit, or perhaps a one way system with Shore Road for incoming and De Moulham Road out? Safety issues aside, it's the parked cars on Shore Road which I feel are most aesthetically unpleasant.
Well-designed streets can boost rental values and property prices by 5 per cent, new CABE research has found. The streets really are paved with gold! see:

Went to raise a New Comment but there's no New Comment option. Could have something to do with our silence?
Although I must say I feel quite happy being quite.

Ref Institute Road, seem to recall several years ago when the "Wimpey" went up in flames that just such a crisis did arise.
