Sleaford : Leasingham Farm Bridge Opening

Via Holdingham of course!

The Farm Bridge was officially opened today (22 September) at around 10.30 am. Lots of photographs: here is one including Debbie Scott preparing to cut the tape. 

New Bus Shelter!?

Update: This application has now been made but Town Councillors have asked for a meeting to discuss issues of siting and the potential dangers if buses have to reverse into Furlong Way! A Meeting with Highways is  scheduled for next week. Around the 18/9.

------------------------------------------------------

I understand there is serious talk about a bus stop/shelter opposite the new Housing Estate near the mini-Roundabout.  It will need the approval of the Town Council and the Road Safety Partnership (I presume). Remember the original one was on the Lincoln Road near and Opposite Stokes Drive. That was started and then abandoned.

All this should have been done long ago when the plans for the development were made.  How the buses will turn I don't know. Perhaps they will have to back in and out of Furlong Way!?

19 September

I will check.

Road Works; Lincoln & York Road Holdingham

I have taken this photo, at the end of York Road, this morning 5th September. The road is cut off to traffic and vehicles will have to get to the Lincoln Road via the Jubilee entrance. The road works are behind scedule and, as I understand, the road will remain closed for a few days yet. Other works are taking place further down towards Millfield Terrace and Tennyson Avenue.
