Yesterday (Friday) knowing that MP Steven Barclay was to visit Whittlesey, I went to the Market Square in order to have my 5/10 minutes time frame with him.
I have met MP Steve Barclay on many occasions, and he has always dealt with issues I have brought to his attention, given to me by members of the public or electors within the WTC ward I represent.
As I have already reported within my ‘Council Report’ in the previous post he has had a meeting with the Environment Agency CEO in regard to ‘Issues and Concerns’
at The Saxon Pit.
He is also very aware of the inpending Planning Application for the proposed Recycling Plant within the ‘Saxon Pit’ and the implications of what residents have flagged up.
I was also fortunate to have a second meet up Metro Mayor James Palmer who is standing for re-election on May 06th. Although outside his remit, I brought him up to speed in regards to the ‘Issues and Concerns’ at Saxon Pit.
However it is within his remit in respect of infra-structure and that is our A605 – being impacted by congestion/pollution and volume.
As previously reported and commented on, the ‘Fuse’ has been lit in respect of ‘A relief road’ – a long long way to go…..We also toughed on Carbon Neutral and Environmental issues locally.
