Valerie Glenn, a pensioner from Winterton, said some areas needed to be improved so children can walk around safely.
“People riding their bikes in pedestrian areas is an issue,” she said.
“Many roads have been pedestrianised places so children can walk about, but you can’t because you always get bikes weaving in and out.
“Otherwise I’m quite happy with things to be honest.
“I always vote because in the past to get women the vote people really put their life on the line. Why should we then say we’re not going to do it?”
Meanwhile, others said that potholes in the region needed to be tackled.

Derek Waugh, a motorcyclist from Scotter, said potholes have caused issues for him riding through the village.
“The road surfacing needs tackling especially for motorcycles,” he said.
“The pot holes and cracks in the road at the moment are awful. Especially going through Scotter. I have got to be pretty much in the middle of the road to get about in Scotter village.
“They keep filling them and they keep lifting out. Sometimes you have to cross to the opposite side of the road or if you have to go through a pothole it really breaks your back.
“Some of them are like a speed bump.”

Carole Glover’s transformation into a Brahma Kumaris over 25 years ago marked a pivotal turn in her life, providing clarity on her previous life experiences.
The spiritual movement was founded in the 1930s by Dada Lekhraj Kripalani, a visionary Indian businessman, also known by the name of Prajapita Brahma Baba. He then passed it over to a trust administered by a group of women who have run it ever since. After experiencing a series of visions in 1936, he was inspired to create a school where the “principles and practices of a virtuous and meditative life could be taught.”
