I was surprised on such a hot day – the numbers in town today – all well behaved and wearing of face coverings (except one)…
Wetherspoons has more table and chairs outside.
I am telling it as was…. Yesterday was supposed to be a special day –
A meeting at long last with Police, Highways Engineer, Town Councillor(s), District Councillor(s), County Councillor(s) and Combined Authority Member.
Alas – Highways Officer/Engineer could not attend (Covid related) and Police arrived long before the start and cleared off.
So ‘we’ had our meeting without the specialist knowledge given by Highways and Policing.
We have come up with some idea’s to go forward with the concerns and issues associated with Ramsey Road & Church Street. It is a start…..
I and the others Councillors disappointment with Cambs Highways will be fed back.
As more information comes I will share, I and the other Councillors ask for a bit more patience.
Finally – with the A605 being closed for the past 14 days – there have been No reported incidences/accidents along the Town area of Church Street/Ramsey Road.
With the road being extremely busy at peak times (HGV’s – Busses – Tractors etc) I am pleasantly surprised on how drivers have been considerate with one another in keeping a fairly even traffic flow.
With the reopening tomorrow (Thursday) of the A605 the traffic hopefully will ease on Ramsey Road/Church Street – with that brings back some of the issues of ‘speeding’
Photos take yesterday 11th at 15:45 – a break in the traffic before ‘Rush Hour’
This morning at 11:45 went to the site and spoke with the Site Manager – who informed me that all being well the road – A605 Peterborough Road will re-open tomorrow.
No time give as the top dressing will go on in the morning and will need to go off before the road is opened.
The Showmans Guild are very eager to restart the Fair Grounds again.
Unfortunately due to Covid no one can guarantee social distancing.
40+ years of living off Ramsey Road, I am very aware of all the issues of traffic.
2 residents meetings – well attended – Today there will at long last be a meeting of
Myself (Town Councillor), Cllr Mrs Windle (Town Councillor), Cllr Connor (County Councillor), Cllr Boden (County Councillor) – The Police and Cambridgeshire Highways Officer.
Article below of what I reported last time there was a residents meeting – I am the only Councillor to report to the public and electorate.
These are ‘reported’ crimes that the Police follow up. They are available for anyone to access on the NHW Website for any area of England.

As the fastest growing county in England, Cambridgeshire is home to a rich diversity of history, culture and landscape. A predominantly rural county, Cambridgeshire includes the university city of Cambridge, the market towns of St Ives, Huntingdon and St Neots, the historic Fenland towns of Ramsey, Chatteris, Wisbech, Whittlesey, March, the historic cathedral city of Ely and the thriving city of Peterborough, a regional centre for commerce, industry, transport and leisure.
There is no monthly meeting of WTC full council during August.
Below is the update paperwork received from Environmental & Street Scene (FDC) and the CCTV report.
Note the number of reported Fly-tipping incidents in our area. If you see any Fly-tipping please report to FDC – They are pretty good at getting it removed.
If you see someone Fly-tipping DO NOT approach them – try to get evidence – Registration or a photo….be careful.
Further to my post about Littering and thowing away PPE…maybe….a more direct advertising slogan – like below maybe more eye-catching to some…

So I ask myself – why a Foreman on the Lindum Homes site told me there was a 2 to 3 week delay in completing the project.
We have this morning been informed via the official channels that the project should be completed by Thursday – weather permitting.
