Trenos Crossing
RCT Liberal Democrats are alarmed to hear that, despite costing a massive £5.1 million, the ramps on the new bridge at Trenos are not “access for all” compliant! Community Councillor Neil Feist was only made aware of this shocking news recently.
A clarification by Network Rail stated that "The ramps are compliant Bridleway ramps and are not access for all compliant".
In an email sent out by Neil he said that "Trenos has had a massive amount of public money spent on it and I am very concerned that it will not be access for all compliant". He fully intends to continue on the working group and committee for Trenos and Ewenny in order to find a way forward.
Rhondda Cynon Taf Council - council tax increases
Another round of above inflation Council Tax rises for residents by Rhondda Cynon Taf Council with a massive 4.7% increase!
In the Llanharan area - Llanharan Community Council have increased their bit of the tax by an eye watering 6%!
RCT Liberal Democrat Neil Feist, Community Councillor for Llanharan ward, was the only councillor to vote against this increase for local people.
With cuts to the winter fuel allowance for pensioners and hard working families trying to make ends meet - these increases are simply not right.
It's bad for residents and it’s bad for the local economy too.
If anyone wishes to contact Neil about any of the above, he can be emailed at:
