Parking Restrictions Poolemead Road

Last week we raised the issue that the order to remove double yellow lines from the road opposite to the island at Wedgewood Road had been approved.

We can now confirm that these yellow lines have now been removed allowing for off road parking as originally intended.

We have already heard from a number of residents we are pleased that we have been able to resolve this difficult problem.

Community speed watch (Twerton)

The Police are setting up a community speed watch scheme for Twerton for which volunteers in the community can then run.

We all know the roads where there is speeding traffic and we all moan about it, now let's pick up the mantle  and do something about it.

If you are interested in taking part in community speed watch then you will need to be trained and have a bit of time on your hands.

To find out more about this exciting scheme the either contact Pc Adge Secker at Bath Police Station by dialling 101 or contact Tim or Gerry and we will pass your details onto  Adge.

Wedgewood Road Bus Shelter

The Bus Shelter at Wedgewood Road is going to be replaced with a new shelter and seat in the spring of 2015

In the mean time we have arranged for the light fitting that is damaged to be repaired, we would hope that this would be done quickly.

Bus Shelters and Bus Stops Kelston View

A new Bus shelter has been installed on Kelston View by Wedgewood Road flats as part of the Bath Transport package to encourage greater bus use across the area.

The controversial bus build out by 38 Kelston View will soon be removed and the original bus stop put back as it was. This was brought about by complaints from local residents.

Produce Market at Bath City Farm this Saturday!

Bath City Farm are holding their final Produce Market of the year, this Saturday 4^th October, 11am – 1pm.

They will be selling fresh vegetables (including squashes, savoy cabbage, leeks and peas), jams, chutneys, bread, Gloucester Old Spot Pork, fresh cut flowers and crafts. We have some great value strawberry plants, redcurrant/blackcurrant bushes, Sweet Williams, pansies, chilli plants, sweet peas, vegetable seedlings and herbs.

Go along and have fun?

New Double yellow lines and removal of Double yellow yellow Lines

New Schedules for no waiting restrictions have just been published and these will affect 2 Twerton Roads.

1) Waiting restrictions (  double yellow lines ) will be put into place on the northern spur of Landseer Road to ensure that emergency vehicles can gain access to Landseer Road.

2) Waiting restrictions ( double yellow lines ) will be removed from a section of Poolemead road to aid the provision of off road parking.

These have both been consulted on with local residents who support these proposals.

The new schedules take affect as of 15th October 2014

Possible delays due to road Works

With Scheduled resurfacing works taking place in Haycombe Drive for 3 days later this week there is a potential for delays to the number 5 Bus service running through Twerton.

We would advise residents to ensure that they leave home in plenty of time to reach their destination.
