Been in touch with dkmcrae.com have YOUR say and get heard.
What does apathy have to do with it?
They have identified an opportunity to make money in the truck parking sector or they haven’t.
Yes they have but are battling the authorities who seem hell bent on this not happening in spite of the crime and disorder act section 17. why is everyone so dis-interested ■■? these guys are fighting YOUR cause and have identified a problem,and identified a solution, and need YOUR input by way of justification.
Cant believe the total indifference of all those who moan about lack of facilities-----------then cant be a***d voicing support in an independent survey!!!

Hang on a mo.
They ppl proposing the venture are not running a charity are they? I assume they are ppl trying to make a profit by investing their own money to get it rolling?
If so well the onus is on THEM to show the case for a truck stop. THEY have to do the homework and produce data to support their case, not a bunch of lorry drivers.
can see both side and agree they are going to invest x amount for a return of x why should drivers need to fill in petitions?
can anyone tell me one of these whole sign here and after x amount it goes to be discussed that has gone through?

Think your missing the point, if the powers that be are objecting to this proposal, then they need convincing that this is needed, just a couple of days ago there was absolute chaos at seaforth docks. If, by leaving an opinion on there website, we show support for it then at least we will have voiced our concern/comments. The bit about the Police not giving out figures is a bit disconcerting for me. As far as I am concerned to do nothing is not an option…whoever is financing it. I need welfare facilities so do others its as simple as that. I am sure they are doing there homework, must have done, in identifying what is clearly A. an urgently required facility. and B. an investment opportunity…whats wrong with that■■? Finally with no “data” from this industry i.e drivers how on earth are they to produce said “data”
I hear you,
I just don’t agree that I or any other driver needs to hang our heads about being apathetic about a stranger businessman’s business idea.
As for data, I think the authorities who need convincing are looking for something more substantial than a few comments from trampers don’t you?
To maybe the ppl trying to set this up should try and find out what exactly is the reason the authorities are not keen.

Apparently the authorities are more interested in bringing “blue chip” companies to the area, higher employment figures and all that.
A truck stop takes up a large area and would not employ dozens of people. We just have to fend for ourselves in urine stinking lay by`s
or between darkened warehouses on the dock road. I repeat the police wont release figures under the freedom of information act in relation to criminal acts carried out against drivers and there trucks…strange that…yet this is an opportunity to voice your concerns in that respect. Then for someone else to colate them, present them, and hopefully improve our conditions.
