Tim Bick has been a Liberal Democrat City Councillor for the last four years, and is seeking re-election to the City Council on May 3rd. Tim has been effective in campaigning for community amenities, championing our open spaces and fighting to protect the character of our area. The brick walls he has met are often from the Conservative County Council.

Trying to save the City Centre Shuttle

Tim fought to save the city centre shuttle bus but the local campaign was ignored and the Tories closed it regardless. The Conservative County Council ignored our calls for effective signs for the 20mph limit. They showed no interest in making pavement adaptations for disabled people – and yet they are the highway authority!

Working with the Police

Tim has forged a productive relationship with the Police. He has highlighted priorities for their attention and he has using the Council’s ability to bring different agencies together to address underlying issues, such as the rehabilitation of homeless people.

Campaigning to keep the City Centre special

He has worked hard on planning challenges at Riverside, the Old Maltings and the Varsity Hotel, on the first two securing big improvements.
