A couple of months ago, the Police asked for any information regarding a Toyoya Pick-Up Truck, |Neighbourhood Watch| reported to the Police at the time that it had been seen in the Whittlesey area and that ‘they’ The Police had the vehicle removed to a compound.
It has since been seen driving around in an anti-social way.

No Big Deal sentence but hopefully the Toyota has been to the crusher.

Amazing how ‘blame culture’ has reared its head over the Kings Dyke Bridge.

Nearly everyone now has the ‘opinion’ that it was built in the wrong place – that may be proven, however at the public consultation 90+% went for the current option including myself – yes be honest.

North Bank was due to be closed last night, however there are reports this morning 08:00 that traffic is using the road.

I have been a member of the Rural Citizens Advice for over 12 years.

A robust question and answer session took place with developer Persimmon Homes today at FDC’s planning committee meeting, this can be viewed on FDC’s YouTube Channel.

After some 3 hours, the application for up to 1,200 new housing in March was approved, subject to access to the site – the building of a round-about to take place before any housing construction.

Reserved matters need to be agreed and this is a 10 year project in various stages.
