Brickhill News Update
There is lots going on in Brickhill at the moment and with Mayor Dave Hodgson leading our Borough forward, we are optimistic for the future. Here are some of the things which we are currently dealing with
- Brickhill Lib Dem Councillors are opposing plans for an 02 Phone mast on the pavement in Brickhill Drive outside the allotments.
- New play facilities envisaged for Waveney Green with tens of thousands of piunds grant funding. Brickhill Parish Council has been extremely helpful during the consultation process.
- We have agreed that from 4 January a free feeder bus will run from the far end of Ashmeand Road, via Anjulita Court, to connect with the No 6 bus service in Waveney Avenue. It will run once a day, leaving Ashmead Road at 10.30am, returning at 1.30pm. Longer term the No6 will serve the estate entering and leaving via Ashmead Road, running as far as the roundabout.
- We are workign with the NHS to raise the issue of providing medical facilities for Brickhill
- We have finally seen Torrdige Rise resurfaced, after years of campaigning by the Liberal Democrat team. This follows resurfacing to Brickhill Drive and attention to long neglected pavements along Mallard Hill. We will continue to campaign for road and pavement treatment.
- Your Borough Councillors are working to deal with lighting the roundabout on Tyne Crescent at the entrance to the Woodlands Estate
- We have requested gritting of the main road into the Woodlands Estate for winter.
- We are really pleased that the pond on Brickhill Drive has been completely cleaned and is looking much better.
