Lindsi Bluemel
Green Party candidate for Bitterne Park
I have lived in Southampton for almost 40 years, 24 in Bitterne Park. If elected I would promote active and sustainable transport to benefit the health of local residents and improve air quality, including better provision for cyclists and more 20 mph roads. I would work to protect and improve the parks and green spaces in Bitterne Park and support measures to tackle pollution of the River Itchen. I would like to see support for small businesses to ensure that the Triangle continues to thrive for voluntary groups such as Friends of Riverside Park and Friends of Cobbett Road Library.
