There are nine fitness, health and wellness businesses within 1.5 miles of the Showground and another five within a fifteen minute drive. For leisure see conference centre and hotel. Yeah, real leisure that is. Look at his smiling face - he doesn't believe it either And as for “We want this to be something that Peterborough is incredibly proud of and which stands out as unique and UK leading.” - we've already got that, it's called Peterborough Speedway so hopefully PCC do their job and tell AEPG where to get off! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know how long the council normally take to validate planning applications but we’re cracking on for three weeks now without see anything. I did think that but they are getting more vocal in the local press and that needs to be challenged (mud sticks, however seemingly unrealistic), even with that proviso that everyone needs to see their planning proposal so that it can be checked against the provisions within the PCC local plan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shhalewhhale Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 I want to start kicking up a fuss and hightlighting what is going on, especially given the way that Wolves are and we seem to be just rollin over and dying, because the Showground as a whole is worth saving, but I don't want to tread on anyone's feet or f*** up anything when something may be happening behind the scenes. So do we start a save the Showground and Speedway group or what? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve checked aepg out on companies house. They are worth jack all. I don’t understand how a small business like that can even get hold of a place like the eoes Shame we don't have shale to own, it's clay and worthless, just ask Buster Chapman !

So do we start a save the Showground and Speedway group or what? A petition (change.org) to save Peterborough Speedway by ensuring that the Peterborough Local Plan policy LP30 is adhered to in any development plan of the Showground (provision of a new facility) would be a starting point I would suggest. Then get the Speedway community to sign it by sharing it everywhere as the Wolves fan has done.

True. Remember at the public meeting the other week as well when they told residents not to discuss things on social media. I see that it's also all going a bit Pete Tong with Truckfest as well? Had to laugh a this: Councillor Julie Stevenson, one of the area’s representatives on Peterborough City Council, said: “This is part of the problem with transport management here. "When we get a huge influx of drivers from elsewhere in the country they're not necessarily aware that the area round the Showground is now very much more residential than it was a decade ago. "Residents of Orton Southgate and Orton Northgate are experiencing huge delays getting in and out of their homes today. And that's just one small event. AEPG want to flood the area daily 24/7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understandable in the rain , Gorican is pretty much a one line track at the best of the times. With a downpour and no outside line even more so tonight - Warsaw next up then the racetrack that is Prague - or the Borefest as it is known unless you have indulged in Czech Premium Lager. Can't see Zagar changing his terms to dramatically perhaps they will choose to go (G) all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
