Apologies

Having suffered injuring my very poor left leg again, I have been on some serious pain killers for some time and the effects are they take the pain away – but leave me not functioning 100%, some confusion and may say things unknowningly….
Then earlier this morning I had a fall…. again not doing my traumatised leg any good and also bashed and bruised.

Update – More ‘Mindless Vandalism’ – Manor Field.

Had a look myself this afternoon, some of the broken parts are historic and NOT new.
However the attempts to set fire are fairly new…

 
Whittlesey Town Council / Whittlesey Street Pride / Glassmoor Wind Turbine Fund, investing hours and hours of our time, somewhere in the region of £10,000 to replace 8 Picnic Benches with Environmetally Friendly / 2 Accessible in the very near future.
This is what has happened today – does it give me motivation… These people maybe somewhat ‘idiots’ – am I allowed to say it…

Fly-Tipping B1040

From Cllr Dee Laws…

I have already reported the quantity of waste materials/fly-tipping to Fenland District Council along the drove, 2nd left hand turning,  off the B1040 driving out of Whittlesey and before Dog-in-a-Doublet Bridge.

An abandon trailer and other dumped metal items will be collected next week by FDC’s contractor Crowson’s.

FDC Rapid Response Team will  set to work removing 3 x builder sacks containing insulation, rumble and other building materials – a pick-up track required due to the weight.

Other materials include cabling striped of the copper wiring, tyres and a collections of other materials including children’s broken toys should be cleared fully by the end of the week.

Important YOU Have YOUR Say

The Police and Crime Commissioner’s Office are conducting a survey for members of the public to share their views and priorities about policing and crime in the county. The survey feedback will be used to shape the Police and Crime Plan for the next three years.

This is a genuine opportunity for you to influence the way policing will look like in the Cambridgeshire Force Area, so if you could spare a little time to complete the survey that would be appreciated. It is very short!

The survey runs until July 30th and a link to the survey is here:

Latest Update Milk & Water Drove/A605

Read the whole artilce on the PT© Click Here

Currently, traffic builds up on the roundabout and all the way back into Stanground due to vehicles waiting to turn off the A605, but the new lane will allow drivers to pass by.

The project has run £500,000 over budget due to a “number of unforeseen factors” including works with gas distribution network Cadent, as well as “alternative design options and challenging site conditions”.

 

A spokesperson for Peterborough City Council said: “The dedicated right turn facility will be installed once a large BT Openreach chamber in the carriageway is decommissioned and removed as part of the planned BT diversionary works.

“BT will return to site the week commencing July 12 to complete their apparatus changeovers and to demolish the chamber. The right turn facility will be installed over three consecutive days commencing on July 26. We expect the project to be complete by the end of July.”
