Brian defies the motorbikers in the woods

These woods are owned by Dursley Town Council and Councillor Brian Marsh is on the warpath !!! "The woods are being used by motorbikers over the last 6 months. The police have been informed but to no avail. All the footpaths and bridleways are a complete mess as are other parts of the wood. Nobody now uses these woods because they are frightened they will be run over or hurt or their dog will be killed. The time has come for positive action. the neighbourhood warden service have been very helpful but has ceased to be funded by the Labour Government. But where were the police whose job it is to enforce the law. Pathways and bridleways have the same Laws as the Roads" Cllr Brian Marsh
