| 136 | Improved & safe access to railway station for pedestrians & cyclists | |||||
| 148 | A safe way for pedestrians to cross the Aire Valley road to reach the Steeton & Silsden Railway Station. I cross regularly and consider it extremely risky. I fear for the death of a young or old person. | |||||
| 184 | The absolutely terrible problem with DOG DIRT | |||||

| 262 | Drains as mentioned on page one | |||||
| 264 | The town has great facilities for children to play, yet they need cleaning, recently there was a used condom and evidence of drug taking (homemade bongs, discarded silver foil) in the gated children's area not forgetting all the dog poo | |||||
| 288 | There is a serious litter & dog dirt problem in Silsden especially around the beck area, the canal paths both ways, Hainsworth road, Brunthwaite bridge Lane, Brownbank Lane. | |||||

| 334 | Public Toilets!!! | |||||
| 344 | Keeping Tesco's away from the town | |||||
| 356 | Roads and Pavements | |||||
| 367 | The park isn't very accessible for all of the kids in silsden to play in. The main road cuts the town in two and is too dangerous to let kids out on their own. Also, there should be better connectivity with the Railway station. There needs to be a footbridge across the dual carriageway before somebody is knocked down and killed. | |||||
| 369 | Bus to Skipton | |||||
| 374 | Another cheaper supermarket | |||||
| 381 | There needs to be a safer route from the station into town | |||||
| 382 | parking facilities limited at silsden steeton station. | |||||
| 404 | dog poo | |||||
| 409 | A Swiss/German-style time-coordinated train/bus service to serve ALL arrival and departures of trains to and from Leeds and Bradford. This to include the cancellation of buses to places where the local trains run, thus providing the extra buses to properly provide for the extra station shuttle services. | |||||
| 410 | parking facilities / | |||||
| 415 | we need safer access to train station | |||||
| 423 | Refurb of Silsden Health Centre Keep Fire Station open | |||||
| 430 | Is it possible to pass a Bye Law requiring property owners to keep their own frontage clean and tidy? This would help a lot. The backs of some streets are almost like lawns with grass and weeds. | |||||
| 439 | Ladies toilets in Town Hall need to be downstairs also, steps are a problem. | |||||
| 449 | Repair and maintenance of pavements. | |||||
| 452 | Control and clean-up of dog fouling. | |||||
| 467 | A 'reason' needs to be made for people to visit Silsden and spend money in the town. The memorial garden is a great start. Pride needs to be increased. | |||||
| 472 | Not too clear what facilities/activities are available for older people - plenty are advertised for children and young people though. | |||||
| 497 | Do not allow near us a supermarket whatever they promise it will kill off the local shops. | |||||
| 536 | Activities for middle aged people. | |||||
| 540 | The disused mill on the left hand side as you come into Silsden lends use to a leisure complex, there is ample parking and it is close to the cricket/football ground, this would create employment opportunities for local people, assist with off road parking for the cricket/football ground and also provide local people - adults and children with somewhere to go to keep fit/healthy without having to travel to Keighley. | |||||
| 555 | Dog fouling is a particular problem, all around the town. | |||||
| 556 | Dog fouling. | |||||
| 574 | The state of road surfaces and pavements. | |||||
| 588 | Closing that eyesore of a skip yard belonging to the Mayor of Silsden and move it to an industrial area outside town would be a step in the right direction. | |||||
| 600 | Failure to stop at zebra crossing. | |||||
| 613 | Takeaways should be less (eyesore in Main Street). | |||||
| 628 | Traffic speed. | |||||
| 629 | In my opinion all of the advertisement hoarding etc. on the approach to Silsden should be banned it looks awful. A general community cleanup would be good. | |||||
| 667 | Schools need expanding to meet new housing. | |||||
| 681 | It is a miracle that nobody has been killed crossing the bypass to get to the railway station. | |||||
| 686 | Reducing the number of takeaway shops and their associated signage on the village main street. | |||||
| 719 | Dog fouling. | |||||
| 724 | Clearing up dog litter and fining culprits. | |||||
| 730 | CCTV put into use. Dog wardens to stop dumping. | |||||
| 734 | Parking down Silsden needs stopping. We have too many big wagons and buses pass though its not safe and no where for traffic in other direction to go. Also parking at the bottom of Banklands. | |||||
| 737 | Mini roundabout needed at bottom of Howden Road and Bell Square. | |||||
| 747 | Recruitment drive to mix able, disabled, old and young people in group activities. | |||||
| 757 | The town hall needs to be refurbished and given a more central role in the village. The library could be relocated and an information (tourist) board/desk be installed. | |||||
| 758 | Dog poo - major problem. Parking on pavements needs to be stopped. People burning rubbish is becoming an issue. | |||||
| 760 | Dog dirt. Drugs in children playing areas. | |||||
| 765 | High level of dog excrement on pavements and public areas in Silsden which is detrimental to health and the environment. | |||||
| 766 | Special attention should be given to the duck pond area. It is in the centre of the village and needs to be kept in pristine condition especially the vegetation on the overflow ramp. | |||||
| 767 | Footbridge. | |||||
| 770 | Get some decent people on the council please who live in the real world I have lived here 47 years and do not know any councillors except a bandit and gangster called Atkinson who is useless. | |||||
| 772 | Public amenities - those we have are probably the worse I've ever encountered. What visitors must think. | |||||
| 782 | A community building with stage facilities is much needed. The ideal place being the town hall which badly needs improvements in many areas - disabled access and toilets a case in point. The erection of a stage with changing rooms off would give a focal point for community productions of many kinds. | |||||
| 790 | The park really needs more supervision. There is broken glass whenever I take my granddaughter there. There could also be a more child friendly equipment, picnic benches and a few attractive flower beds to sit and contemplate on a nice day. | |||||
| 822 | Traffic down Hothfield site. Parking outside of the school. | |||||
| 827 | We feel quite satisfied with all the above facilities. | |||||
| 834 | Also clean up all lanes and roads around Silsden. Litter is unsightly. | |||||
| 836 | Dog waste bins. | |||||
| 840 | Park play area is trashed every Friday and Saturday night - litter/drugs, Regular problem not addressed by police. Left to park rangers who never get off motorcycles. Waste of money clearing up damage. Covered in dog mess. | |||||
| 878 | Road maintenance. | |||||
| 879 | Stop heavy traffic e.g. large lorries passing through our small town. | |||||
| 882 | New health centre. | |||||
| 913 | Dog waste fee. | |||||
| 925 | The state of the Beck is terrible and could be improved and made a local point of Silsden. | |||||
| 926 | Canal towpaths need to be hard cored to allow the disabled, mums and prams, wheelchairs access, at the moment or during the wet seasons it is dangerously muddy, roads using swing bridges, traffic should have to stop before crossing towpath onto swing bridge. | |||||
| 936 | To me making Silsden attractive for tourists would be a benefit with the canal and countryside. But Silsden has to look the part of a tourist centre. The recent environmental assessment raises questions for us. | |||||
| 945 | Hard surface along the canal for winter walking. | |||||
| 974 | If Silsden is to grown I.e. housing etc. should we not have a functioning police station? As we are sadly neglected I.e. nowhere to get help fast. | |||||
| 978 | Dog fouling is a huge problem. Footpaths are full of litter. | |||||
| 979 | Would like to see covered bins for dog litter. Ings Way is disgusting and the open rubbish bin on Howden Road when used smell very badly in warm weather. | |||||
| 982 | The cycling agenda isn't even a problem in Silsden. We could maybe do with more police walking the streets to deter gangs congregating. | |||||
| 988 | Allotment provision. Performance space. | |||||
| 1002 | Dog waste bins. | |||||
| 1028 | New bypass. | |||||
| 1056 | Too many unadopted roads for the rates we pay. | |||||
| 1089 | To have lights at the crossings down main street as traffic comes through Silsden too fast. | |||||
| 1093 | Dog waste bins to be widely available - there is only 1 that I know of and this is NOT provided by the council. Community warden should stop people with dogs to check they have 'poo' bags. | |||||
| 1095 | The lack of variety of local businesses along the main through route. Fine if you want a curry after a hairdo! | |||||
| 1098 | Lake fishing on reservoir for public , a ticket, could pay for safe spots and stocking of fish, and possible hire of boats. Down south it happens a lot and could be a site for a caravan park without causing inconvenience to local residents! Making it a tourist attraction! Bringing money into Silsden! At the moment the only thing which fishes are herons! Or very privileged humans. | |||||
| 1099 | Need more dog bins up top of Silsden Road. | |||||
| 1101 | More. | |||||
