open forum Earlier this year, an open forum was organised by Loose parish council to enable residents to discuss traffic problems in Busbridge Road and surrounding rural lanes. Both the parish council and Loose ward councillor Susan Grigg have been contacted by members of the public voicing concerns over the potentially lethal 40 feet drop along sections of Busbridge Road.
At the meeting several suggestions were put forward by members of the public, one of which was that a traffic engineer should be engaged to provide a report. LAA agreed to fund this
