I lived very near the Bridge for a number of years and remember them building this new shop,after knocking down the Anchor laundry and it was mooted there would be an in out drive, well this did not happen and this is one of the problems, the carpark for the Co-op in not big enough to take that volume of traffic, particularly double divi days and in the carpark there is some very dodgy manouevering waiting for spaces, hence the build up in Nocq rd which causes absolute gridlock, I think the Co-op realised quite soon that the car park was going to be a problem and I personally cannot wait to see a new Co-op on the Bridge. I can hear the cry from Dave Jones now. I also believe the marina should have been made into partly a visiting marina to rejuvinate the area slightly, have a market on a Saturday on the Crocq and give the whole area some appeal, it is quite depressing walking along the Bridge now and often quite smelly and dirty. My little grandaughter slipped on some chips on Saturday morning outside Beekers she did not hurt herself, but it is not very pleasant down there at all.
