Quick update

Due to a mix of technical problems (my laptop is now behaving itself) and the pressures of the school term I haven't been able to post any news for a while. That doesn't mean I haven't been busy!

Firstly I've got some repairs made to fences outside the bungalows on Northfield Avenue. Secondly I've been trying to chase an upgrade to the footpath from Ramsden Square to Campkin Road, however this has hit a snag. The removal of pinch points on that path has also been delayed and will be discussed in march at NAC. Please let us know of your opinion on these projects.

We should also have a reasonable redevlopment of the Arbury Community Centre carpark. Thanks to all who got involved in the consultation. Hopefully the lights in the area (which I reported via the County Council's street lighting unit) will soon be fixed too.

There is also news for Council tenants about this years government settlement, but that had better wait until the final figures are confirmed.

Anyway I wish you all a very mery Christmas and a successful and enjoyable new year!

Some good news when cycling and walking from King's Hedges


After several months of building concrete supports, and bolting and welding together of a jigsaw of steelwork, then new bridge across the River Cam was finally hoisted into place yesterday.

While it will still be several weeks before it is open, it is a significant step forwards towards offering an alternative route, down Union Lane and across to Riverside to head into town across Midsummer Common.
