Street repairs at Station Lane and Church Street, Station Town

I was contacted a few days ago by residents at Church Street and Station Lane in Station Town concerned about damage to a traffic bollard, street lamp and nearby fencing caused by a vehicle fire in the area.

I visited the site last week and reported the extent of the damage to the Highways and street scene departments at county hall. I urged a quick response in repairing the bollard to limit unwarranted access and to prevent vehicles speeding through the narrow passage between Station Lane and Church Street.

The Highway engineers have now confirmed with me that the materials to replace the bollard and fencing have been ordered and that works to repair the site will be carried out as soon as possible.
