The Bower TowPath Concerns & Issues….

Here we go again, Social Media rules the waves….without any understanding what-so-ever.
So I’ll ‘try’ to explain (not excuse) the situation –
Our Bower Towpath should be a wonderful walk for hundreds that use it daily, including myself, the ‘path’ is ‘owned’ by 4 different authorities, Cambs Highways, FDC, Mid-Level Commissioners and a Charity.

To even attempt to get all four around a table I can asure has been tried.
So ‘we’ Councillors have to approach Fenland District Council to service the whole Pathway. As spring turns to summer, the area gets overgrown, I have requested this be looked at some 10 days ago along with other Councillors, the work has to be scheduled into the contractors other workload which is already heavy at this time of the year.
Yesterday the contactor ‘Tivoli’ sent their ‘man’ and he spent some 6 hours strimming and clearing the area as best as he could (not the overhanging tree’s) and he cleared up afterwards.
No thanks required or expected as usual…..abused ….
