The purpose of the Ringwood World website is to promote Ringwood to its residents, visitors and tourists.
In view of the traffic problems facing Ringwood now and for the next few months, we are reviewing our editorial policy. There is little point in promoting Ringwood when the traffic flow problems are bad and will get worse and when High Street and Market Place are so difficult to access. Indeed encouraging visitors to come to Ringwood at the present time is more likely to do harm than good.
If the traffic flow in Meeting House Lane is put back to the way it was before the recent reversal, there would be a slightly better case for resuming our promotional efforts
