Confused, the first part of the post refers to the Benwick Road Whittlesey – Road Works
The second part refered to the Kings Dyke Crossing…
This is available free to community group leaders….you need to contact CCVS.
However ….. The PCC’s Office came back with a reply (good/bad/ or indifferent) pretty quickly….
For a number of days one the A605 electronic highway information boards West of Whittlesey has gone in to melt down.
On a number of occasions I have reported an intermitted fault and the problem has been resolved but appears to be only a short term fix.
An engineer has visited the site and diagnosed the problem. A part is on order and Cambridgeshire County Council TMC department are chasing to resolve the problem, hopefully before Christmas.
Kind regards,

Councillor Mrs Dee Laws
NO LONGER IN FORCE. Flood Warning: B1040 Thorney to Whittlesey Road to the South of the River Nene.
This is a message from the Environment Agency.
Flood Warning no longer in force: B1040 Thorney to Whittlesey Road to the South of the River Nene.
The situation is improving and no further flooding is expected in this area.
Flood Warnings and Alerts may still be in force for surrounding areas.
The River Nene has being falling steadily over the last 24 hours.
The B1040 road will be reopened once the Highways Authority have been able to inspect the road surface and carry out any necessary works to ensure the road is passable.
There may be standing water in low lying areas and fields for several days.
Fenland District Council, are/have been conducting a plan for the future of leisure centres within Fenland, they have brought in consultants who have visited all the sites.
We (Councillors) thought that a report was going to be presented to FDC’s cabinet in September.
When I asked the portfolio holder for leisure Cllr Miscandlon yesterday for any updates, he informed that the report has gone back to the consultants for further work, and that it was not expected back until next year sometime?
At today’s full Fenland District Council meeting I asked the leader Cllr Chris Boden the following question.
“Can I please be informed whether there is any update on the Ralph Butcher Causeway, a letter has been received from Alex Beckett the chair of Highways and Transport at Cambs CC. He sent that there was a contract dispute between CCC and the Contractor.
Will this hold up even longer any action in fixing the issues.
Does this start to look like The Guided Busway case between BAM Nuttall & CCC.
Is there any update please.”
Cllr Boden responded that an hour to answer may not be long enough, he gave no specifics however acknowledging the terrible chaos that the holdups Whittlesey residents are having to put up with, he was doing his best to get answers but it was difficult.
He gave as good a reply that he was able too –
He is trying to get information and will release when ever he can.
Some history on the previous problem(s) – his answers took around 8 minutes.
You can watch the full answer to my question on FDC’s YouTube Channel from
16 minutes into the meeting

He is having a meeting tomorrow (Tuesday) with the Director of Highways.
Cllr Clark stated that Kier had walked away from the project – watch his question at
31 minutes into the meeting.
Good answer back from Cllr Boden.
Lots of Finances / Current & Future.
