Dear Editor,
Parts of Crewe Town centre are in a deplorable state, like the public square in the Market Centre, near to Asda and W H Smith.
We have asked the Council to clean it up.
Dead leaves piled up and slippery underfoot, litter and graffiti everywhere, parts of the public realm damaged and/or missing, burnt out litter bins and a general sense that the Council doesn’t really care how bad Crewe town centre is.
Why has this been allowed to happen?
The town centres in Wilmslow, Knutsford, Alderley Edge etc would not be allowed by Cheshire East to become so unkempt, so why has Crewe town centre been allowed to deteriorate like this?
Crewe has THIRTY Labour Borough and Town Councillors.
Why have they allowed parts of the town centre to get in such a decrepit state?
In May, vote for ‘Putting Crewe First’ so we can again have a town we can be proud of.
Elect Councillors who are going to make a change for the better.
If Crewe keeps voting in Labour Councillors nothing will change.
Yours faithfully,
Cllr Brian Silvester
Leader
Putting Crewe First
Asda have a duty to maintain the area.
They are clearly not carrying out their duty so Cheshire East should do it and recharge them.It can’t be allowed to stay in this disgraceful state.
Well said.
This is why we are putting up candidates for the May 4th elections.
Once again Brian gets it wrong as the council don’t own these areas, he really should know this but as always he forgets to research his “facts”.
It isn’t only the town centre that’s in a sorry state. The streets and roads all over the town are full of pot-holes that don’t get proper attention. Many of the side streets and housing estates are covered in rotting leaves, that are going to block drains, and become a major cause of flooding in some areas of the town. Something needs to be done now. The longer things are left, the more costly it becomes to put things right.
