Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

After 20 years of my http://www.lof-news.co.uk and 10+ years of my https://roygerstner.co.uk websites
all has been moved back to the UK. Not a simple task and not without hic-ups but hopefully all is back to as it was before, if you spot something that is not right please
let me know.

I must say FDC’s present contractors have made an early start – ‘mild wet wether maybe’ – and always along with Whittlesey-In-Bloom volunteers keep many of our town centre area’s very presentable and tidy.
I hope they can continue with other area’s – my own estate – I have to make frequent requests to have it cut and tidied up, that said last year was one of the best we have experienced – well done – thank you….

Although many complain about The North Bank & Thorney Road/B1040 being closed on a great number of occasions during the past 12 months. It appears that ‘we’ and area’s that the ‘Flood Plain’ protect have not suffered any major flooding for some time – which up until now prooves it is doing the job it was intended.
That said there are other issues with land-owners adjacent to the Whittlesey Washes who have seen levels rise on their land.
There is amount of rubbish being brough downstream and this collects on the river bank.
There is public spirited people who attempt to clear this up, but then have little support from Peterborough City Council – who promote themselves as ‘A Green City’
