In May, a damaged fingerpost on Colchester Road, Salcott was replaced under the Members Highway Initiative following a request from Cllr Bentley. This replacement was necessary due to damage caused by an RTC. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Two safety bollards outside a local nursery on Connaught Ave have been reinstalled after being knocked over. These help protect pedestrians, especially children, from traffic. Thanks to residents for your patience & to Cllr Vance for raising the issue.

Street cleaning is managed by your local Borough, City, or District Council. Highways handles emergencies like oil spills or dangerous obstructions. Our crews litter pick before verge cutting, but this can be time-consuming. Please put your rubbish in the bin or take it home. ๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ
