The planned works are expected to be carried out early next year and would include 2 pedestrian crossings. So far the reaction from locals has been mixed.Nigel Haversage of Wensley road supports the idea, saying "The roundabout has become increasinly dangerous for pedestrians. Everytime I cross I feel like I take my life in my hands". However, Maureen McGrath argues that the traffic controls will increase congestion "The roads surrounding the roundabout are congested enough without adding more uselses pedestrian traffic controls".

Residents react in horror as they learn of plans to demolish St Mark's Church to make way for a McDonalds Drive Thru. Residents of Trevose Gardens this week received notification from local authorities about the proposed development. Julie Perkins, 83, a resident of 27 years said "I just can't believe it. The last thing we need in Woodthorpe is another McDonalds. I find it truly sickening that they would do this".

We requested a comment from Gedling Borough Council and recieved this from Peter Morris "This McDonalds will bring great employment oppourtunities to the area, as well as providing healthy competition for the other food outlets in the area".
