KD X Update

A message from the King’s Dyke project team:

The reinforced concrete anchor beam, which is part of the piling reinforcement near Star Pit, has now been completed.

The capping beam, which will then sit on the top of the piles and is also made of reinforced concrete, is progressing well. The steel reinforcement (pictured right) is now in place with half of the concrete poured.

Near the western tie-in, work on drainage is now well underway. The majority of the kerbs have also been installed, with the shape of the footpath (pictured left) that will run alongside it now evident.

Lastly, for those that would like to give feedback on the project, our online communications survey closes at midnight tonight (26 November).
The survey can be accessed here

PCC Plan Consultation

Updated With Link New PCC Plan For Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
Today sees the launch of a new Police and Crime Plan for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough which sets out my policing and crime priorities for the next three years.

The Plan has been put together following extensive consultation with local residents, businesses and other organisations working to support criminal justice and community safety. I would like to thank those who took the time to give me their views in my July 2021 public survey.

You will see that ‘Putting communities first’ is at the heart of my plan. While people understand that the police have to respond to high harm issues such as child abuse, domestic and serious violence, communities also want to see local issues such as anti-social behaviour, speeding and drug dealing dealt with. We currently have the highest number of police officers we have ever had in our county however the police cannot tackle these issues alone.

To download a copy of the Plan, please click here.

I will work hard with Cambridgeshire Constabulary and other partners to make sure the issues residents and businesses are worried about are dealt with and the above priorities are delivered.
My commitment to you – the residents of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough – remains the same as the day I was appointed your Commissioner – to cut crime, help victims and keep people safe.

Darryl Preston
Police and Crime Commissioner

The Ottermans Corner Is Becoming A Big Issue

Reported  previously of ‘who’ is in charge of this situation, and I’ve seen video of a vehicle driving at the ‘bollards’ and sending them flying, I apologise that it is out of our hands and control, this is another case of an accident waiting to happen.

Yet Again – More Minor Vandalism – Picnic Benches

After a lot of hard work, funding and support from WTC & Whittlesey Street Pride, earlier this year 8 expensive fully recycled heavy duty Picnic Benches were installed in the Manor Field, a lot of positive feedback, however the first week saw vandalism of two of the benches. Since then several other attempts of either trying to dismantle or set fire to them has taken place. In consultation, if this carries on, we will have no alternative but to take out all of the benches, limited resources in finance and ability to repair any damage.
If you see or witness any of this mindless vandalism I urge you to report it.
(I am not allowed to say – who I think maybe responsible – I’m sure you can guess)
