Requested a discussion with Highways and the attendance of an officer at the next forum. Residents were advised that they could also raise the matter at Rochdale Township Committee if they so wish to address other Council Members and GMP who also attend the committee. A query was also raised regarding who is responsible for deciding on whether a speed camera can be placed in the area. Action 4: Townships to escalate matter to Highways · A representative from the mosque community attended the forum and requested extra police resources around the Medina and Crawford Street mosques throughout the holy month of Ramadan as they have observed anti-social behaviour issues with children in the evenings.
