Trees A 'rolling programme' to look after the trees in the City's streets has arrived in West Chesterton. Full details of these works which are programmed to start in October, are available on request at Milton Road library. Ground Maintenance at Woodhead Drive Ian has been working with residents of the Woodhead Drive and College Fields areas trying to get problems sorted out relating to how the grounds are maintained. Council officers have written to Centro Ltd, who now own the areas originally developed by Galliford Sears. The overgrown open space in the corner of The Beeches has been particularly neglected.
Neighbours complain it causes problems for asthma sufferers.
A public meeting has been organised to discuss the petition for a road block at the junction of Ascham Road and Gurney Way. Residents of Trafalgar Road have been asking for some sort of traffic calming. Increased numbers of young families and narrow pavements with parked cars and moving traffic make a potentially fraught cocktail. A new 'Graffiti Dispatch team' has been launched by the Lib Dem City Council to clear up the graffiti around the City. Householders can now ask the Council to clean off the graffiti free of charge.
