What’s that coming over the hill?
The word “elections” seems to be cropping up more and more in my conversations these days, which is worrying. It only seems like five minutes ago that it was last time, and now it’s next time already.
But, somehow, the world does not grind to a halt as the spectre of Bury’s local election’s begins to loom. And safe in that knowledge, I have once more been chasing up some casework today.
I have been in contact with the Council’s Environmental Services Department once more, stressing the importance of the St Ann’s Road junction improvements that have been promised by the end of the financial year. This is now barely more than a month away, so it is vital that we ensure that we keep the pressure on the Council to live up to their promise and get on with the removal of the dangerous second set of lights.
In addition, the continuing saga of the dirty streets in Church Drive carries on apace. We had some success last week when the troublesome trees were cut back. Now there is some confusion over whether it is the responsibility of the constructors at nearby Tulle Court, or the responsibility of the Council, to keep the streets clean. My argument is that both should be doing it, but neither seem to want to. So once again I posed the question today and await a proper response.
With any luck it will be as positive as the trees response last week.
