BCCT Survey on M2 Kirkham Road Bridge

The Beecroft Cheltenham Civic Trust is conducting an On Line Poll on opinions regarding the Kirkham Road Bridge over the M2. It is essential that this poll adequately reflects the opinions of those who use the bridge! To be significant we need HUNDREDS, even THOUSANDS, of respondents.
I strongly urge all of you to go to the site and select "strongly disagree" to the option for full closure of the bridge for ten months!
Obviously if the road under is to be widened, then the work to extend the spans of the bridge has to be done. But the original EPA said this would be done without night working, using single lane traffic over the bridge during the work. So I suggest you hold them to that, by selecting "disagree" to night working because of the noise, "disagree" or "strongly disagree" to full weekend closure, and (reluctantly) "agree" to single lane flow with traffic lights.
Get your friends to do the same, and if you know people who are not 'internet fluent' then ask their permission to vote on their behalf, making clear in the space at the bottom of the survey that each repeat submission relates to another person.
