 About 1300 of the island's 2000-strong population responded |
Traffic has topped the list of concerns revealed by a survey in Alderney. It shows residents want fewer cars, better leisure facilities and improved transport links.
Islanders' views on the future of Alderney were sought through a questionnaire sent to every adult by the community group, Vision Alderney.
About 1300 of the island's 2000-strong population responded to questions on a wide range of topics including housing, transport and standards of living.
Vision Alderney is hoping to use the data to inform the debate on the island's future and a full analysis of the results will be available later this year.
The organisation's Chairman Richard Wilmott said respondents also wanted to tackle the issue of second homes.
He said: "What people wanted a lot fewer of was part-time residents and houses for part-time residents
"And when asked how funds might be raised a suggestion from more than half of those who wrote in was to have some kind of tax on second home owners."
