Horsham Forum - The Horsham and Southwater Commmunity Forum

West Sussex Leading Bose Dealer  

Bose @ Horsham

Lucky you having just the ONE refuse collection day  I live in one of the appartments in The Forum and we get refuse collectors driving by EVERY DAY.  Not just the one cart either but THREE DIFFERENT ONES - Biffa / Cleanaway and of course the Horsham DC one.  Then you get the road sweeper contraption being driven around at a rate of knots.  If that's not enough there's the container and delivery lorries and all this kicks off around 04.00 a.m.  The activity with delivering or whatever it is that's going on continues until about midnight.  Peppered in between there's the surge in traffic during rush-hour morning and late afternoon and of course we're right beside the bus station so every 10 minutes or so a bus goes rattling off down Blackhorse Way.    Friday and Saturday nights you get drunken revellers ambling back home down Blackhorse Way and at night everythiing ECHOES.  The giggles, shouts, loud talking can be heard by everyone, especially as most have their windows open due to the hot weather.  This situation is bonkers and obviously cannot continue.  The council have done a sterling job so far with pedestrianising the town centre, but why oh why does 'through traffic', buses and the like have to be led through Blackhorse Way?????  It's bad enough with shoppers, kids screaming and shouting and the teenagers on skate boards outside the paved area in front of TKMax - the circular coffee shop also attracts a multitude of customers.  In fact it's NEVER QUIET here and that's such a shame as the appartments are really quite nice to live in.

Any comments on my experiences then !!!!!!
