Be as demanding as you like, they stand to make upwards of £40m from this one site. You have until January 22nd to complete this, please don’t put it off. Some ideas could be:
* pub that isn’t in danger of closing
* a crossing in the High St
* a mini supermarket
* a cycle path to Chipping Sodbury, and up to Charfield or Kingswood
* A Doctor’s surgery or a dentist
* A post office
* A proper bus service than runs more than every two hours
* A bypass around Wickwar for M5 traffic
