The Petition of Ms Clare Biggs
Declare that a zebra crossing should be installed on The Green, Writtle; further that increased traffic using The Green and the speed at which some of it is travelling means that it is increasingly difficult for villagers to cross the road safely, particularly the most vulnerable: young children, the elderly and disabled; further that the current traffic islands are too slim to accommodate pushchairs, wheelchairs and bicycles and do not provide a safe crossing point; and further notes a petition on this same subject has received over 800 signatures.
The petitioner therefore requests the House of Commons to urge the Government to install a zebra crossing on The Green, Writtle.
And the petitioner remains, etc.—[Presented by Mrs Kemi Badenoch.]

The petition of residents of Woking
Declares that no land should be removed from the Green Belt for development unless there are very special circumstances and all other options including brownfield sites have been exhausted; further that it is also imperative that no major developments are approved in Byfleet until the proposed Flood Alleviation Plan is implemented; further that the Office for National Statistics has recently revised its household projection to show that less new housing is needed than previously thought; and further that this petition refers to the Site Allocations Development Plan document, approved by Woking Borough Council on 18 October 2018, which has questionable long-term forecasts and does not include recent developments.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government not to remove any land from the Green Belt for development unless there are very special circumstances and all other options including brownfield sites have been exhausted.
And the petitioners remain, etc.—[Presented by Mr Jonathan Lord.]
